Roma

Rome, where to even begin? Such an amazing city with so much history, so many things to do and see and some yummy food to top it off.

St. Peters

Trevi Fountain

Pantheon

Sistine Chapel

School of Athens

The Roman Forum was one of the most amazing things I've ever seen. These buildings are over two thousand years old and far surpass many of the buildings that have been built in the past century. There is so much history here and it was very neat to be able to experience it.

Collosseum

As we were leaving Rome I got sick and puked on the metro. Tyler took a picture but I'll spare you ...

Pomeii

Very massive and very old and very well preserved

Florence

Duomo, very pretty.

Brunelleschi's Dome

The most beautiful statue I have ever seen in my life.

Interesting fact: David's right hand is abnormally large in proportion to the rest of his body. As Michelangelo was a phenomenal sculpture it has been speculated that he did this to represent the hand of God in David defeating Goliath; pretty neat.

Pisa

Cinque Terre

The Italian Riviera & Cinque Terre was by far my favorite part of the trip. The coastline was breathtaking and the five villages were so quaint and darling, plus they had the best gelatto out of all the places we visited which doesn't hurt.

Vernazza (where we stayed).

Monterosso

View from our room.

Riomaggiore

French Riviera

We didn't take many pictures here because I was too paranoid to take our camera to the beach. The French Riviera was lovely minus the saggy boobs that littered the beach. We had a great time and got some good sun.

Interlaken

Interlaken, meaning 'between the lakes' was also breathtaking. We headed to one of the crystal blue lakes in the morning and spent a few hours eating lunch and enjoying the scenery.

I loved the buildings in Switzerland, the architecture makes for such a quaint setting.

We stayed in a hostel that had a little kitchen but there was no stove or pans, only an electric kettle to boil water, so we had to get creative. We boiled water in the kettle and poured it over our noodles in a glass pan. It took a little longer and noodles weren't quite as soft but it was still pretty tasty spaghetti, and much cheaper than eating out.

Tyler, being as mature as he is, loved seeking out words in other languages that were similar to potty words or other inappropriate words in English. "Fahrt" really got him going, as you can tell.
