the Notre Dame was so cool to go inside. its one of those places that you feel like a part of history in. it was really cold inside despite having 90 degree weather outside and the whole time they were playing a recording of some young boys choir. oh and every so often the priest would get on the microphone and say shhhhhhh. but the stain glass was really amazing. they had all 12 disciples in one and they put all their robes and hair and everything on them. it was dark though so i couldn't take many pics. the one thing that really sticks out is the organ. it was the size of a large SUV. i wish that i would have gone to the top to see all the gargoyles though because they were gorgeous through binoculars.
so today is my dads birthday and i would just like to say happy birthday dad! i was going to post a pic of him but the few that i have aren't that good so i would like to, instead, post some really cute pics of my dogs, Bizquick and Luther.oh and the 15th was my friend Taylor's birthday so happy late birthday Taylor!
so by request i have been asked to share some things that are weird about me and some things i love. plus the best pic I've ever taken. hmmmm hard to say.... but the weird thing i can come up with a bunch of those. i found my wedding dress a few days ago, i know what kitchen utensils i want to be buried with( the spoon and fork with the S's on them), my favorite conversations are ones i hear only a little bit of, i am kind of obsessive over things like who control's the laptop(me) and the TV remote(me), when i was 7 i was convinced pickles were evil since they were "mutated" cucumbers, umm i know there's more!
as for the things i love.... old movies, brad Pitt, any one Australian or that calls my honey, iced tea, laughing, making sculptures out of food, and Audrey Hepburn.
Yesterday i went with my friends from school,audrey and Julia, to our favorite coffee place. it was so much fun talking with them again about everything. It started out with normal stuff like who's the hottest actor ever(Brad Pitt), did you know that the Indian girl on bend it like Beckham is on e.r now, and what we should do the over the next few days of summer. Then it went on to stuff like our thoughts on religion, and other stuff. It was weird how we could go from like shooting lattes out of our noses with laughter, to almost crying with seriousness. I love these guys. Oh and my dad just called, the pics will be here on Saturday at the latest. So tell me what you want to see!
so i finally almost gotten over my jet lag and I'm starting to go out and do stuff.yesterday
went to see a ICE AGE: DAWN OF THE DINOSAURS or whatever with my friends Sam and Corey. it was hilarious, first i split like half a bowl of pop corn all over... well you had to be there. but today I'm meeting them at our favorite coffee place and even though its summer it took me like half an hour to figure out what to wear. i decided on gray cut offs and my Obama shirt that i picked up in D.C. i took a pic of it just cause its so cool! i like being able to just write about everyday stuff, it was kinda hard to keep track of all the stuff happening in Europe.
today is the last day in switzerland and as sort of a goodbye we did some hiking. up the swiss alps that is. it was one of the coolest things i have ever done. we went right up to this glacier and took some ice back but i think it has probably melted by now. the hike up there was really scary though, we were kind of jumping from bolder to bolder then sliding on gravel then wobling on the rocks in between the bolders all with glacier water beneath us. and the water was going about 14 miles an hour, which might not sound like a lot but it is. i went with dad and serena. oh yesterday we went into this small town to find a londramat( theres a really funny story about that for another post) so we went to the information desk and there was this chocolate sculpure there about 3 ft high with each peice of cocolate about the size of a chiwowa. but it wasnt a sculpture it was real chocolate and it was free. so oviously we took some. tomorow is italy and i am so exited about thier food. in case u didnt know its my favorite.
hello. sorry i have not written in a while we have been on the road for the past few days but now that were settled i can finally u all about my trip. switzerland i gourgeous. i think that its much better than france. just looking out my hotel window i can see 2 castles and about 50 farms. and we have the alps all around us. as for versille, nothing compared to it. as soon as i walked in i felt as if i should be walking around in a big old fashiond dress and have people call me miss antionette. everything is gold: the bedrooms, the gates, the frescos, everything. and the best part is the gardens litterly about 3 miles of garden in each direction. and around every turn is a fountain of, u guessed it, gold. i cant wait untill i get home so i can post all the pics i took, i might need another blog just to fill all the pics. missing u all so much lets hav a party when i get back. oh and every half hour im on the internet is 5franks (4 dollars) so dont expect a new post EVERY day.
i though that when we went to versille yesterday that we would be staying there but instead we came back packed up and are getting ready to leave today. we will be going to omaha beach and then near dijon. i have mixed ammotions about going to the beach because saving private ryan is my fav movie i expect lot of tears. then we will be going to switz then italy i think. i am hoping with all my heart we will have internet! oh and by the way the sun kings palace is the most beutifull think i hve ever seen! more on that later! p.s i miss u all sooooo much!!!!
