Allison's Adventures!

This is the little chronicles of my life, travelling through Europe on a lovely little tour for 27 days and then an extra bonus week in Paris with Mommy! =) So much to see, so little time...

Italy...been there, done that...

So, since the last attempt at finding internet on this crazy trip, I have gone to the French Riviera (Cannes with Margot!! I <3 you!) , Monaco, Florence, Rome, Venice, and now, I am in Vienna ~ the home of Mozart and music in Europe! Actually, watching a lovely Mozart concert last night was super lovely and gave me an appreciation of classical music (Awwwww...I know...cute eh?)

Monaco was just flashy and a quick side-trip at night...lots and lots of pretty cars though... Like damn, reeeeeeeeaaally pretty.... basically a boy´s paradise.

Florence was cool...just crazy streets everywhere, as was Rome which was insanity. We wandered EVERYWHERE.... Even this crazy catacomb thing where the priests apparently exhumed the bodies of other priests and then used thier bones to decorate the catacomb´y cementary part....creeepy but very cool all the same! Super super creepy though~

Venice and gondolas were fabulous. It was just awesome to get lost in that city, wander about, and just explore while getting cut off by little canals everywhere! Murano glass is also just beautiful beautiful stuff...

Now in Vienna, we are chilling. Just hanging out about the city, perhaps will check out the Hapsburg palaces and such, and then a lil´Viennese coffee somewhere...although I did just find a Starbucks and am now guiltily drinking it in the city with renowned coffee everywhere...

Starbucks are just rather hard to comeby sometimes and I haven´t seen one since Barcelona. It´s like Italy put a Starbucks ban on the stuff =p

Anyhow...I am weathering a lovely cold that everyone on the trip has...we are all sick, and no, we have not been all making out with one another =p haha...that would be awkward...yes....awkward....

Anyway, time is running out and I must go find a frigging sweater...they totally lied when the thing said that it was 20+ degrees here...this is more like 12, which is damn cold when all you brought are tshirts and light sweaters...wait till Switzerland...

Till I find more internet later...
