We're finally HOME!

It was a great great great trip!...Although it was super shaky in some parts and it almost looked liked we were gonna have to abort at certain times, it all worked out in the end and we made it succesfully to all of our destinations! A special thanks to Ryan McAnlis for putting us up in his amazing flat while we were in London...couldn't of asked for a nicer place and a nicer host!...many thanks Ryan.

Once I get all the pictures we took from London I'll post them up.
Thanks for checking the blog and following us on our trip.

The Red Light District

The Red Light District is one of the craziest things I have ever seen. I had no clue what to expect and it's just mind blowing...

crazy

New Years!





New Years was CRAZY!...People and Fireworks everywhere!...We had a super fun time and were all safe, I got seperated from the group for an hour or so, but found them at the train station. We are just cruzing the city today and leaving for Berlin tonight!

A 15 hour Bus Ride














I'll make this as short as I can because I don't have much internet time.

We succesfully met up with Alex in Rome and headed out the next day by train to Florence. We believed our train to be scheduled at 8:30am, yet when we got to the station Anthony checked the ticket for a second time and found out that it was really at 7:30, so with about 10 minutes to spare we got on our train. It took about an hour and a half till we were in Florence. The city was really nice, not too big, so it was good that we only planned to stay for only the day. We walked around, did some shopping, and went to so museums...It was great, except for McDonald's, which is another story in it's self. Then at 8:30 we left for Milan. We got in at about 11:30 and found our Hotel. We had to wake up at 6:30am the next morning to hop on a train to the next airport we had to be at which would be our flight location for Amsterdam. So we got on the train and ultimately to the airport. We got checked in, and sat in the terminal waiting to take off when our flight was cancelled. Not just delayed, but cancelled...and they just kept telling us that we will get a refund after we mail in a slip and that there we're any other flights till the next day...and those flights were going for about 400 euro a piece...we were bummed to say the least. Well, long story short, a whole bunch of people from the flight grouped together to rent a charter bus and drive to Amsterdam from Italy. So for 100 euro a piece, we all decided to join in. And now, after sharing a 15 hour bus ride with a bunch of drunk Italians singing soccer chants, we have finally made it to our Amsterdam Hotel. The city is pretty clean so far from what we've seen, but we've really just seen the airport. Tomorrows the big day...should be fun, and kinda crazy...I expect to have a lot of pics, so tune in i guess...

well...that's it so far, the short version.

Enjoy the pictures!
