Day 14: Last Day in Europe

Hello and Goodbye! Today is going to be a bitter sweet day. I am going home,but I really dont want to leave. Yesterday I visited the Clock Tower, but it was too dark outside to see anything.  I also met Mother Teresa. While she was there I took the oppertunity to ask a few questions. The frst question I asked her was; why did you feel led to help others? Her response was; I felt let by God to help others because they needed it more than me. My second question was; how does it feel to win  a Noble Peace Prize. HEr response was; it feels great. I am just so blessed to have helped everyone I did. My last question was; If you could go back and change one thing in your life, what would it be? Her response was; Not a thing! I think my life turned out just how God wanted it to be. Today I am going to see the Church of St. Maire and the Shkubim River. Hopefully it won't be long so I can get home fast. I had a great time here in Europe and hopefully I can come back again. So for now, Good Bye from Europe. Thanks for reading this super long blog. I just had so much fun!

Day 13: Good Bye London!

Hello! Today is my last day in London. I am going to do a little last minute shopping, and pack up my bag. This has been an amazing trip. I'm sad to say it's almost over. London was the funnest part of this trip. Seeing 2 soccer teams, Big Ben, the London Eye, Buckingham Palace, Meeting the Queen, and traveling the English Channel. Now I am off to Albania, my 4th and last stop.

Day 12: Beatle Mania

Day 11: Off to Explore

Yesterday was AMAZING! First, I went to see Big Ben, the large clock tower on the north end of the Palace of Wesminster in London. It's 150 years old, and first ticked on May 31st, 1859. It was crazy awsome to see something i've seen in books, movies, and maganinzes for real. Then i headed over to the London eye, a humongous ferris wheel over London. I saw everything. It was amazing seeing everything from so up high in the air. Tomorrow I am going to see the English Channel. It seperates England and Ireland from the rest of Europe. I might just swim back across, or go under by subway.

Day 10: The Queen and Tea

Hello! Today was great. I had a good night sleep at my wonderful hostel. The Manchester Uninted game was great. They won 2-1! I love soccer. After the game, I went back to London for my tour of the Buckingham Palace. As I was walking through the gardens, I spotted the Queen driking tea. I decided to walk over and say hello! While I was there I decided to ask her a few questions. The first question I asked was; how has life been since the mysterious death of your beloved daughther-in-law  Princess Diana? Her answer; it has been ok, we miss her allot but she is happy as a kid in a candy store up there in heaven. My second question was; are you ready to hand over your crown down to Prince William or Henry? Her answer; maybe some day in the near future, but not quite yet. My last question was; how has it been reigning the past 58 years? Her answer; it has been an amazing. I am so blessed to have been able to enjoy this experience.

   Meeting the Queen has probably been the most amazng experience on this trip. Tomorrow I am going to visit the London eye, and Big Ben!
