Day 11: Geneva - Lido di Jesolo

Hello everyone!

Our day started in the United Nations in Geneva. We had an interesting tour of the beautiful buildings, and also the chance to send a post card from international territory. 

Afterwards we headed to the bus and started our journey through the Mont Blanc tunnel to Italy. 

We arrived in Lido di Jesolo just in time for dinner and had a delicious four course meal. To finish the night off we went to the beach to stick our feet into the warm Mediterranean sea. 

Day 10: Paris - Geneva

Bonjour!

Travel day with a bit of adventure included - we drove towards magnificent Geneva in the morning and arrived around 16.30. Then we explored the city for a little while before there was free time to buy some of that amazing swiss chocolate. The weather was beautiful and we took a nice group picture in front of the Jet d'Eau fountain.

Day 9: Paris

Bonjour!

Today was our day in beautiful Paris.
First stop was a city tour - we saw Notre Dame, Pont de arts, Le Louvre, Arc de Triomphe and many other marvelous buildings.
Then it was time for lunch and some free time to go shopping on Champs Elysées.
Afterwards we went inside Le Louvre and explore all the amazing art that you can find there - Mona Lisa for instance.
Next up was.... THE EIFFEL TOWER! Everyone was very excited as we started heading to the top. There was a bit of rain coming down, but as we made our way to the top the sun came out and the rain stopped. It was picture perfect!

Day 8: Disneyland Paris

Hello and welcome to a day in the happiest place on earth!

We spent the entire day having lots of fun riding roller coasters and hanging out with all our favorite Disney characters.

Day 5: Berlin - Amsterdam

Hey guys!

A day mostly spent on the road.
We started in the concentration camp Sachsenhausen. It was definitely an eye-opener to see what some people were forced to go through. Afterwards when we got on the bus it was very quiet - everyone was processing what they had seen and felt.
It was a long trip to Amsterdam but people kept up the good mood with lots of talking and singing.

Day 4: Berlin

Guten tag!

The very historical city of Berlin was on today's list. We did an interesting city tour and learned more about both World War Two and the Cold War. We stopped by East Side Gallery, check point Charlie and many other places. We had a typical German dinner in the Hofbrauhaus - a huge chunk of meat and mashed potatoes!
Today it was Nyree's birthday so she was celebrated properly with both cake and singing!

Day 3: Copenhagen - Berlin

Hello everyone!

Today we travelled from Denmark to Germany! It was quite a long trip, but there was a nice ferry ride in between the many hours of driving, where everyone could eat and hang out on the deck of the ferry in the wondering weather.
We arrived in Berlin around dinner time and had a tasty German buffet!

Day 2: Copenhagen

Hej allesammen (Hello everyone)!

Today we explored the capital of Denmark: Copenhagen!
We had a wonderful city tour in the nicest weather, and after that we spent our afternoon in the beautiful Tivoli Gardens - a small amusement park in the center of Copenhagen.. It was a bright sunny day filled with laughter and roller coasters.
