When In Rome...






Jimmy and I went to Rome Tuesday -Friday. It was pretty amazing. We saw all the main sights even in such a short amount of time. (Collisuem, Forums, Trevi Fountain, Spanish Steps, Pantheon, Vatican ect...) We were walking and I turned and saw my first sight of the Collisuem and literally stoped in the middle of my sentence. I was so amazed. Everything we saw was so big. We only paid for tours of the Collisuem and the Vatican. Everything else we just kinda saw and read for our selves. There is so much history there is it so cool to learn about it all. I think we did pretty good traveling together, despite the fact that Jimmy is scared of flying...ha! It is kinda surreal to think we really went there!

We took over 1000 pics while he was here, so many! I have added some to online albums on the right hand side. Check them out!

Jimmy's Visit






So last week Jimmy came and visited me. We had so much fun. The first day he was here we toured downtown Munich (Marienplatz area). We went up Alte Peter for a great view, visited the Frauen Kirche, and took pictures in front of the Rathaus (town hall). We went home and had dinner with my hosts and just hung out because he was so tired from jet lag. Saturday was a pretty day so we went to the English Garden and walked around and got Ice Cream. That night we meet up with other pplers at Hofbraühas.

Sunday we went to Dachau (the Concentration camp). And Wow It was an experience. It was huge and to see all that history, and the memorals and stuff. At the cerematory u can still smell the burned body smell. It gave me chills and i did tear up at some point...

Monday we went to Neuschwanstein, the Castle Walt Disney modeled Cinderalla's Castle after. It was Georgous. It was built by King Ludwig II. It was raining when we first got there, We went thru his parents castle first and then Neuschwanstein. When we came out it had begun snowing! It was just like a fairy tale!

Tuesday Through Friday we were in Rome. The next entry will be about that trip! The last night he was here we went to Hard Rock Cafe and ate dinner. It was so much fun! He left Saturday morning :(
