Europe

I'm back!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Its been a while since my last post, but that is because I was in Europe. First stop, London!! It was an eight hour plane ride to get to the wonderingly bustling city of London. My two favorite things there were The War Rooms and the Reading Room in the British Museum. Next Stop, Paris!! I had so much fun there although not being able to read the ads and signs was annoying. My favorite things there were Norte Dame, Giverny, and Versailles. Last Stop, Home!! The plane ride from Paris to Dallas was 10 hours, then we had a 2 hour plane ride to Denver, and then a 4 hour car ride home. I was so glad to get home. Other things of interesty that occured on the trip: We stayed with Uncle Brian while in London and I slept on a leaking air mattress. I saw Daniel Radcliffe's school and the place where they filmed Gringotts bank. I also went to the Tower of London, the London Eye, Battersea Park, Harrod's, took a bus tour, the British Museum, the play Billy Elliot, Convent Gardens, Westminster Abbey, St. Paul's, Millenium Bridge, and Greenwich while in London. We hung out with Barry and Seonaid (pronounced Shona) alot while in Paris much to my annoyance. Seonaid is a very condesending person, she often treated me like a five year old and my mom like a ten. I wrote some of the stories about that in my journal. I also went to the Effiel Tower, the Louvre, Sainte-Chappelle, the Arc de Triomphe, Mon Marte, Sacre Couer, Tuileries, Musee d'Orsay, Rue Cler, and the Orangery while in Paris. I had so much fun. I will publish pictures in my next post.

I'm looking forward to your photos. It sounds like such an exciting trip except for the annoying, condescending woman. How is she connected to you? Did you try to avoid her at any point?

How was the food?

Any interest in studying French now?

See, it wasn't so hard to work out your favorites. What were your least favorites?

Seonaid is my mom's father's brother's wife. It was really hard to avoid her because I like my great uncle Barry, I didn't want to offend him. And I didn't like the subways and......... I can't think of anything else right now.
