Lots of pictures from England and Switzerland
This is what the Alps looked like from the plane when I was flying to Milan. I had a layover in Milan to London.
When I got to Heathrow, my friend Jessica was there to meet me. This is her and I in front of Big Ben. I was lookin really rough after a 9 hour flight to Milan then another 2 hours to London.
That night I had fun and met people in London. This guy is from London and I think his name is Johnny.
I met lots of people. Here are some guys from Philadelphia and two other people from Canada.
Sunday night I went to Felixstowe and stayed the night at my friend's house. This is me with one of his friend's dogs.
That morning I left to go back to London very early. Here I am playing on a zipline at like 6 something in the morning.
I was in London during Chinese new year. They decorated real pretty for it.
Tuesday I visited the Cotswolds in London. Although initially I was going to go to Chipping Campden, I met this guy at the bus stop and he invited me to Stratford-Upon-Avon, and he offered to show me around. Here we are in his favorite pub, The Bee Hive. He was real nice and bought me a beer and lunch.
Shakespears birthplace.
I walked a little on The Cotswold Way. It was very pretty.
I saw a flock of sheep. At first they were far away.
A few minutes later they all came to greet me. They were all "baah-ing" very loudly.
Morton-In-Marsh, the place were I met the man that had showed me around.
I met my Spanish friend at the airport in Zurich, Switzerland. This was taken the night we got there.
Interlaken is very pretty.
This was what it looked like outside the window.
Pretty mountains!
We visited the Jungfrau, the Top of Europe. This is a town we passed on the way there. The town is called Wengen.
I had never seen skiers.
I was inside here, so I wasn't freezing... yet.
We made it!
In The Ice Palace, everything was made of ice, even the floor.
Lots of ice sculptures.
A cold ice chair!
Igloo!
Snow!!
Ok, so here I was pretty much freezing.
That was how we got there. There was an elevator up to that building from inside the mountain.
Yay!
I liked this mountain.
Jungfrau sign.
Lots of pictures here.
Very pretty.
Here I am milking a huge cow.
We visited a town called Spiez.
Spiez again.
Big dog that lives at the hostel.
Luis and I hung out in the bar a little bit at night.
We visited Brunig. It was pretty.
Playing in the snow in Brunig!
I liked this picture.
At 3 o'clock on Friday, the skydive van came and picked us up from the hostel.
Other American girls I met in the van.
The sign.
Getting suited up to go skydiving!
This is the girl that jumped right after me, Abby. Since we were jumping from a helicopter, only two could go at a time.
Getting ready...
Thats the guy I was strapped to, Tony. He was really nice and he videotaped our jump.
This is us landing.
We made it!!!!!
Yeah, those hats they made us wear are soooo cute. Skydiving was so much fun. I really want to go again.
After skydiving I met back up with Luis and we went on the train to Bern.
They were having a huge celebration in Bern. Whatever they were celebrating was really fun. A man or a woman? I had no idea, but it was a nice costume.
There were many silly costumes.
This guy was really nice. After this picture he gave me chocolate.
Elephants!
These people were from the band that had just played.
These were my favorite costums by far.
Saturday we visited Einsiedeln. Luis' dad used to work in that city. This is a famous old church.
This was back in Zurich, almost time to go.
Yeah, I don't know what this says either...
My former favorite place I've visited was Scotland, but now I can definatly say it is Switzerland. That country is so awesome. Luis brought me 2 CDs in Spanish. They sound good and I actually understand most of it, or can pretty much get the idea of what they are saying anyway.
Anybody that knows me in person can see the all of and the rest of my pictures. Obviously I couldn't put all of them on LJ. Thats too much effort.
