Bath

The last place I visited during my trip to England was a little town called Bath. Getting to Bath was an awful journey, that included a thirteen hour car ride. The drive should have only taken four hours from London, but because of the floods the motorway barely moved. Needless to say, when I got to Bath, I wan't too excited. Bath did hold many little treasures though including the Roman baths which the town was named after. There were many roman baths around the town, but The Great Bath was the most impressive. After all of the hard work to get there it was really worth it!

Munchen, Detuschland

Munich Germany is a must see city for history buffs. The city is filled with all sorts of various historical hot spots that range from Gothic/ Gaulaic Germany to present day works of art, from the short lived French occupation to the world wars, and from religious wonders to scientific monuments. Being the third largest city in the German Republic, the city is full of attractions for both the young and old. For being a large city, the people who inhabit it are largely friendly in my experience. A friendly welcome was never far away and as expected neither was a pint of their world famous beer. I can confidently say that if more Gerbrew was exported to North America, Molson and the rest of their buddy's would have a grim day.

Shakespeare's Birthplace

The second place i visited on my trip through England was Stratford-Upon-Avon. This is the town that is famous as Shakespeares birthplace. When I had visited, there had recently been severe flooding, so the town was very deserted allowing all of the attractions and sites to be seen more freely. This was one of the most beautiful towns I have ever seen. Shakespeare's birthplace is very historical and is a great place to visit if you appreciate Shakespeare. Stratford was always known as a market town and there are always great farmers markets going on. Stratford-Upon-Avon has so much to offer and you can find anything you could ever want or need.

Montreal

Translated into English I am pretty sure Montreal means Mount Royal. I'm not sure though, but Ron your french, help me out! Last time I was in Montreal I was pretty young so a lot of what I remember from the city is vague. What I do Remember was shopping with my parents which was difficult because my dad said he wouldn't buy me anything unless I spoke to the sales people in french. That was a little intimidating because I wasn't really good, but back then I knew a lot more french than I do now. There is two different parts to Montreal that you can see. There's new Montreal and old Montreal. Old Montreal is the best place in Montreal. It has some of the oldest houses in Canada. Some are as old as 300 years. Old Montreal also has the Notre Dame which looks similar to the one in france( like off of the hunchback of Notre Dame). Old Montreal has a very romantic rustic type feel. Very old with cobble stone and antique stores everywhere. Its a really nice place to visit and the french people there are quite friendly. If you every visit I consider taking a carriage ride through the city, its really fun!

Jamaica-Part 2

There are many things to do while in Jamaica. You can go snorkeling, learn how to scuba dive, lay on the beach, shop, golf, and just take in all of the sights.

My favorite thing to was to lay on the beach or by the pool and take in th sun. My boyfriend loves to golf, so him and I went golfing a few times. We had a lot of fun doing that, except at times I got really frustrated because I'm not very good at it. We also played chess on these life size chess boards that were outside, it was pretty cool, but again I am not very good at chess. We also went to Jimmy Buffet's Margaritaville the last night we were there. Let's just say it's a good thing I took Gravol before we left to the airport! I had a great vacation!

Jamaica- Part 1

Last March my boyfriend and I went to Jamaica for a week. We stayed at the Sandals Grande Ocho Rios, in Ocho Rios, Jamaica.

The resort was beautiful! It was surrounded by palm trees and plants with a stream running through it. The stream actually went by our room and we could here it. It was very relaxing. The resort also had seven swimming pools and three of them had swim up bars which was really nice considering how hot it was.

The resort had nine restraunts so we were able to eat at a different restraunt every night. My favorite restraunt was an Italian restraunt called San Gennaro, and because I liked it so much we ate there twice. One of my other favorite restraunts was called the Arizona and they set up the tables right on the beach. The night we ate there we were so close to the ocean, the water was hitting my feet.

All in all the resort was great!

I already said that Switzerland was my favourite place that I visited in Europe. While we were there we got to go to this Swiss Folklore Evening which was a huge fondu style supper with lots of music and entertainment. It was so interesting to see how the people of Switzerland still live with their culture and are so proud of who they are and where they come from. First we had Bread with a cheese dipping sauce. After that we had some treats which we could dip in Chocolate as well our meal was accompanied by a delicious white wine. I really enjoyed that evening because they allowed some of us to go up on stage and perform with them and they even had a couple of my friends go up there and drink beer out of this huge glass with them. It was really neat. Switzerland is by far thee most beautiful and magnificient place i've ever been.
