My trip to Europe . . .
On JUne 4, 1999, myself and 3 daring friends, Kathy Brittian, Melissa Roesner, and Kim Tissier traveled abroad on a month long adventure. We visited 9 countries, met some crazy people, and saw some amazing sights. Here are some of the pictures of my journey:
Our itinerary: London, Brussels, Amsterdam, Berlin, Prague, Munich/Salzberg, Interlaken, Venice, Rome, Cinque Terre, St. Raphael, Paris

Look kids, it's Big Ben, Parliament. This was the first sight we saw off the plane, and we were so excited, I must have 15 pictures of Big Ben! It is really amazing to see in person.
|
Westminster Abbey, so
full of history, and soap opera like sagas about Kings and Queens.
It's so beautiful!

| Tower Bridge, popularly known as London Bridge, it looks like it's made from Legos. A pretty compound, with the Crown Jewels, and Beefeaters running around. | The Europe
crew: Me, Melissa Roesner, Kim Tissier, and Kathy Brittian, in
front of the Serpentine River

Brussels, Belgium

| The Grand Place in
Brussels, we looked down a little alley, and there it was! It's
amazing, the architecture,

the majestic
buildings, the lace shops, the flowers, and the smell of Belgium
waffles!

|
| The Atomarium, a really cool park that's pretty unique and cool to see. | Mannekin Pis, the statue of a peeing boy the whole city is obsessed with. They even dress him up like Elvis! The story is, he peed on a canon which was on fire in a field and stopped the fire from spreading. |
