So Long Farewell

Germany was an experience. I've been waiting to go home now for a while but tomorrow I'm finally coming home. Three months with my siblings by my side everyday, bugging me every minute of the day, but it was worth it. I love my family and I love to be with them. When we come back to America we won't be able to spend so much time together  - this was fun. I bet when I'm finally in my house I'll say I miss our flat. I'll miss the churches and I'll miss my dad but it will be over soon. Back home tomorrow. This was a trip worth going on.

London

My favorite place and last place we visited, was London. Wednesday we arrived there in the afternoon so we went to go see Big Ben and also went on the London Eye. It was so high and amazing! The capsule behind us had its own food and drinks and a server. Thursday we went to Buckingham palace to see the guards switch up and then we went to the famous British Museum. We saw paintings and the one and only Rosetta Stone! Friday we went to the Tower of London, Victoria and Albert museum and Saint Martins in the Field church to do brass rubbings. The Tower of London was great.  Actors were acting all around and the different towers had stories. (Like the uncle who wanted to be king so he locked his 2 nephews in a tower to rot). Then we went to the Victoria and Albert museum that had paintings.  After that we went to do brass rubbings in Saint Martins in the Field. First you pick out a design that has lines that are 3D than put a paper on top of and rub it with a crayon. Saturday we walked over the Millenium  bridge to go to the Tate Modern muesum and then we came back to Munich. London is still my favorite place. 

For my Dad's birthday we went to Vienna where we saw the famous boys choir and saw the famous Spanish Riding horses. Saturday we went to see the horse show. They were stallions. They could walk on their hind legs and jump in the air. Then for dinner we went to a place that had all different types of goulash. Goulash is meat with sauce. Sunday we went to church and saw the boys choir. They all had really high pitched voices and because of that we thought they were girls.  Coming back from the choir, the old-fashioned elevator in our hotel stopped between floors. We didn't know what was going on and nothing worked so we hit the alarm button. It felt like we were in there for hours. Vienna was cool. I want to come back some time.

Prague

Friday to Sunday my family and I were in Prague which is in Czech Republic . To get there, we took a 6 hour train ride on an Alex which is a fast train. We got there at 2:00 pm and waiting at the train station was my old aupair Michaela from Czech. She helped so much getting us to our hotel and getting us to the right tram stop. After we settled down in our hotel we had enough time to go look on the Charles bridge. It was so big that there was statues that could fit on the sides of the bridge but still have enough room to have 15 people side by side moving forward. Saturday we went to to a church called St. Vitus and the Prague castle but to see these places were a delay. After breakfast we went up to our hotel to get our coats but we heard lightening and hail and wind on the balcony so we waited a while 'till it cleared up. Sunday we met up with Michaela again to go see the castle called Karlstejn about 30 minutes outside Prague and even better, we had an English tour. The tour was a long time so after that said bye to Michaela and got on our train to Munchen. We arrived there at 11:30 pm and then I fell asleep.
