Au revoir l'Amérique... Bonjour l'Europe!



So guess what?... We're going to Europe! Woo hoo! 

We fly out tomorrow for Amsterdam for a few days, then to gay Pareeee, then over to Stoke-on-Trent for my cousin's wedding, up to York for some old-world sightseeing, then finally jolly ole London!

Things I'd like to do while in...

Amsterdam:

  • Rent a bike and ride along the canals
  • Red light district (hehe)
  • Walk the Jordaan
  • Anne Frank House
Paris:
  • Have a picnic of baguettes, cheese, fresh fruit, and pâté in the Champs de Mars.
  • Wander Montmartre up to Sacre-Coeur 
  • Musee D'orsay
  • Jardin du Luxembourg
  • Eat a macaron from Laduree
Stoke-on-Trent:


  • Relax!
  • Enjoy the countryside
  • Experience my first English wedding
York:
  • Walk the walls of York
  • Holy Trinity Church
  • The Shambles
  • York Castle museum
London:
  • Harrods
  • Walk the South Band
  • Eat fish and chips with mushy peas
  • Borough Market
  • Maybe some shopping along Oxford Street?

I can't wait to take loads and loads of photos there. I just ordered a new 64GB memory card for my camera...should be enough ;). I've got tons of movies uploaded to the iPad for the flight over and a bag of snacks, roasted seaweed, sweet and spicy pecans, and dried fruit (thank you, Trader Joe's). Only thing left to do is pack last minute things, like toiletries, and try to get some sleep tonight!

We're not bringing the laptop with us, so I won't be able to upload any camera photos, but tune in to my instagram (username: thelilikoi) or facebook for real-time updates.


See you in 2 weeks!
