Excursion Wekk and other things

Ok well lets start with Paris. It was pretty much awesome. We stayed in Montmartre (if you have seen Moulin Rouge you know its where the Bohemian revolution took place, which was pretty flipping cool). I really liked that area, the little stores and everything. One day we were walking to the city center and there were these three guys just walking down the street playing their horns and it felt like we were in new orleans.



Of course all the other attractions were great, the eiffel tower was cool. We were the last ones in line that day to climb the stairs up, we climbed those horrible steps, it sucked, but was worth it, then we took the elevator to the third floor. The museums were cool and really big, there were so many things to see in them you get overwhelmed. We walked around a lot! If you see the map we were all the way up Paris and it took us like 2 hours to get anywhere. We came back and couldnt walk for three days. It was worth it and was really cool, except everywhere was dirty in the centre.



The excursion was really cool. Dublin was boring and we stayed there for three nights, one of the days we went to Cork and saw the Blarney castle, which was really pretty around with the grass and trees.

I loved Scotland, Edinburgh was really cool. We stayed in a cool hostel, where we met up with the other girls and I just really liked how the city was layed out and stuff. The train up to Inverness was really long but the views were amazing, especially at this one part where we crossed snow covered mountains, it was just so pretty. Manchester was cool, our hostel was pretty much awesome, I think the best from the trip and we went out to eat Indian food that night and it was the best food EVER!!! it was a cheap restaurant but the service was awesome, they even put rose petals on the table, lol. And of course the Manchester United stadium was sooo cool.

The whole trip we took four planes, five trains and two buses, not counting the local buses and transportations. We traveled soo much in a weeks time, but I liked it since I do like the traveling part.
Well that was excursion week. more to come.
