Here are some reasons why to visit my blog and why to visit Europe:


  I've got a new page on my blog
   It's got tons of new things that are not as boring as a log

   I know you will like the page      

   It will have a lot of cool stuff that will last as long as an age

   About Europe it shall be
   If you know about my blog than you know about me
   I can tell if you have been to my site
   If you lie I will get madder than you when you get a bug bite
   Comment if you can
   Sometimes to catch a train we ran
   Europe is my favorite place

   My brother misses his best friend forever grace

   I hope when you go you like it more than I do
   You can go all over Europe if you want to
   I know you will like the food
   It will probably set you in a good mood
   If you really like Europe
   When you go there you will like it so much that you're eyes will tear up
  You might miss home there

  Your sisters and brothers will send you stuff with care
   I will miss you way more than you think
  My toes might even turn pink
   Europe is very cool
   I recommend it to you because it will always rule!

Venice

 Venice is a romantic place with many canals. Venice has many canals.Venice is a place where many famous people visit. Venice is in Italy. We rode on a Gondola. We had a Rick Steve's audio tour downloaded to our MP3. We saw the Frari Church, St. Marks Basilica, The Grand Canal.

Some pictures

  The really expensive boats, we used a cheap one to cross. This is the gondola. 

 

The lions behind the St. Marks Basilica.

Mom, Dad I will let you off just this once because we are in Venice! (This is mom and dad kissing because I told them not to!)

Audrey stop being a copy-cat! (I had to help her!)

Inside the train. (Bye-bye Venice!)

  St. Marks Basilica, (Gold roofs, Audrey said "Not another Church!" Audrey thought this one was the best though!)

 

Scratches on it so you could see it, 2000 years old, Audrey showed me. 


That's Venice

 Komm her meine Kinder 


Pronounced:
comen here mine kinder

Part 1 BRIDGE BOARDING

 We stayed in Budapest. Buda and Pest are separate places. There are some bridges that cross between Buda and Pest.We went to the Elizabeth Bridge and my favorite one "The Chain Bridge"! The Chain Bridge has chains on it and lions at the entrance to guard the Chain Bridge! It has 2 arches!

These pictures are all of the Chain Bridge!

Part 2 BLUE DANUBE CRUISE

 On new years eve we took a cruise, the place we were cruising was on the Blue Danube! It was a............. blue moon (a blue moon is the second full moon in a month!)! A blue moon on the blue Danube in a new year!
The cruise was great and we learned a lot! It turned in circles under the bridges!

Here is the coolest picture of it!


Part 3 WHEN YOU GET CHARGED 10,000 FOR CAR GAS

That's about how much it costs!

Part 4 BIG BUDAPEST!

 Budapest is the capital city of Hungry. The city covers an area of 525 square kilometers! It also has a "Hero's Square". The "Hero's Square" is a place where they have statues of hero's. In Christmas time the whole city is lit up! Imagine how beautiful it is. Luckily, I have a picture of it on the new years! Shown on the other parts before part 4.



Part 5 A LITTLE TASTE OF HOME!

 Almost all of the people in the world like McDonald's, right? Well, we went to one of the swankiest McDonald's! Actually, it did not cost that much! It is very European style with a nice chandelier and two floors.

Very clean with lots of plants.

Part 6 MEDIEVAL RESTAURANT

  We went to a medieval restaurant with large quantities of food. It said on the brochure,  "Best food in the largest quantities". They were not kidding! Drinks were served in medieval mugs, there was a show and other entertaining stuff. The entertaining stuff was a fire-swallower, a strongman and also a balancing man. To top that off, there was even a good show and a belly dancer. Watch out all you boys!

Balancing a glass on a sword and throwing it up in the air?! 

Picking up a metal circle thingy?!

The fire-swallower was very good at swallowing fire!

That is pretty much it for Hungry and Budapest!

JOSH

Josh is my cousin,

 We invited him over for Christmas. We went to motovun and Pazin. Motovun had a very swanky restaurant that was very pricey and josh paid for it all! Josh is probably around 20 Or 30. Motovun has a graveyard, Court
yard and more.

Pazin had a cave that inspired jules verne to wright "Journey to the center of the earth". Pazin's cave had a water fall too! It made it look like "The entrance to hell". There was plenty of room to play and on the bridge if you look to the right then you see a beautiful green lake! Green means that the lake is clear!
