originally i created this blog to post my travels in europe. but one thing led to another and well it didn't happen. but now i am back from the trip and there's lots to write about. so let's start with what i learned while i was away. (these are in no particular order.)
first i learned that traveling to europe is a good thing to wipe out your savings on : ) the amount of money i spent on the trip was all well worth it. i am looking forward to spending more of my hard earned savings next summer. second, i love traveling! i can not wait to go back . . .especially to spain and london. i didn't have near enough time in either of those places. third, it is okay to have a crush on a statue . . . The David in Florence is a-m-a-z-i-n-g! you can look at him all day and not get bored. fourth, god's creation is beautiful, the sunsets we saw in italy, greece, and spain were unreal. fifth, there is a big world out there . . . and there is no reason why i should get stuck in my little corner of austin. (please feel free to remind me of this whenever necessary.) sixth, i am so much better with directions when i have a map in my hands. that realization confirmed two things: i'm such a visual learner and i need a gps system in my car so i won't get lost every time i drive some where new. all in all i loved my trip!!!
