There and back again, a European Trip.

Well the Journey is over but the memories keep bubbling back up to the surface and i realized i had not yet posted on this blog. I felt a quick summary of my travels would do very nicely.

London:
SAVED BY THE UNDERGROUND!!!!!
Got to experience a high society theatrical performance in which one of the highlights was a lady passing out in the crowd.
Bowling could become an Olympic sport if combined with ice skating like the sign implied: "Bowling and ice skating HERE!"

Florence:
THE BELLLS!!!!!!! EARLY MORNING, MID MORNING, AFTERNOON, EVENING, AND LATE AT NIGHT! I WAS UNDER THE IMPRESSION THE BELL DOWN ON CAMPUS WAS AS LOUD AS IT GETS.
Gelato: love hate relationship. Liquidarizi (hate), everything else (love). GM
Cant forget Tulio the jealous ghost.

Venice:
I cannot remember a time i was more mistaken about a city. Upon arrival it was hot and muggy and I was almost pick pocketed on the vaparetto. But as soon as we ditched our luggage our attitudes skyrocketed. PS we also had a delicious meal which may have impacted it in some way
Creepy Italian men.
Learning small amounts of Italian on the boats.
More gelato. GM
More Tulio.
Luckily the Kracken stayed below the surface the entire trip.
Helped Flip a group of Italian's boat after it flipped in Lido.

Vienna:
A bit of a dip in the trip.
Did laundry.
Hung out with Ali.
Ate Kurrywurst.

Prague:
EURO2008!!!!!!!!!!! Who ever missed out on this splendiferous extravaganza has slipped a few notches in my book.
Ate some delicious gnocci.
Realized i was outta cash.
Cheered with the crowd.
Met some very cool folks at the club.
Cheered a lil more.

my life is now complete haha
