EUROPA! (1st blog)
Wednesday, July 23, 2008
Well, this is my first blog so I am just gonna say what's on my mind right now...
I have actually feel refreshed now after spending the whole week daydreaming about my days in Europe. I felt really down when I had to end my European tour, the tour is sure a really FUN experience. I really love Europe for its food, culture and people. People in most of the countries there are very friendly and kind. Everything seems to be at slower pace and quieter there (The people really look like they're enjoying their life there! Really envy them!!!;d)
My tour consist of staying for 6 days in Hamburg, a day in Rendsburg, 3 days in Paris, 2 days in Lourdes, 3 days in Vienna and a day in Salzburg.
The trip has been fun all along and the country that I enjoy the most is Germany. It is a really great country; the people, the food, the infrastructure, the weather (their summer isn't that hot!) and the SHOPPING area is superb! I enjoy my stay there so much and I think I have learnt some DEUTSCH too! halo, danke, guten morgen, etc...hehehe...;)
Paris has many many many beautiful sceneries. I think now I know why it has become one of the most popular destinations for honey moon! I get to see the Eiffel Tower, Arc de Triomphe, Louvre Museum (I saw the Mona Lisa! remember the Da Vinci Code?!), etc. The buildings are so beautifully sculpted, I don't mind looking at them for the whole day!;) I also visit the shopping area at Champs de Elysees (hopefully I spell it right!;)). They have the designers stores such as Louis Vuitton, Chanel, Dior, and more others. All these designers are based in Paris. (How cool, right?!OMG! I was so excited when I visited these stores at that time!!!)
Austria is very popular for its musical culture. It is the centre for European music centuries ago and many great composers such as Mozart are from there. Mozart is very popular in Austria. (I went to see Mozart musical concert in Vienna! it was kinda boring cos I'm not a "musical" person but a good experience!;)) I also went to Mozart's birthplace in Salzburg, a tiny but beautiful city outside Vienna. Oh ya! While in Austria, I found some "left-over" items from the Euro 2008 Championships. ( I spotted a "EURO 2008 official car"!!!). Austria was one of the host of this event. I wish I was there when the event takes place but well, as a fan of futball, I am happy since I can still feel the EURO atmosphere just by coming here! ;)
Well, I think I have said a lot already cos my hands are feeling tired.
I hope this is a good start for a blog.
I'll write again later & hopefully I am not abandoning this blog! hehehe...
Peace Out!
