My Trip To Paris,London and Rome










On July the 4th 2009, my mom, my sister and I went to London (UK), Paris and Rome. We took a 10 hour flight to London and arrived around 3 (in London time) in the morning. When we left the airport we had to get train tickets to go to a place closer to our hotel. Then we had to go to another ticket booth to get day passes to go on subways which we had to wait in line for 2 hours (opens at 6am). Not to be rude or anything but there were many homeless people there and my sister, Nancy and I got scared. When we found our way to our hotel we took a shower and went to see the London eye which was the 2nd largest ferris wheel in the world. We stayed in London for 4 days and saw many sights. We then took a train to get to the beautiful city Paris.

Arriving in Paris was pretty confusing since all the signs and people there usually spoke french. So when we asked for directions in English many people didn't understand what we were saying. We got lost but after a few days we got used to all of the roads and subways. My 2 favourite things I did in Paris was going to Disney and going to the Louvre where there were many paintings, they even had the real Mona Lisa. Oh yeah, I would never forget the time I went to see the Eiffel Tower, I got to go up the tower and i saw how high we were and i almost fainted. We stayed in Paris for 6 days and now the last destination is Rome.

We had to stay in a train that had three beds in a room to get to Rome, and it was so squishy and stuffed I felt like dying and guess what!!!!!!!! I had to sleep at the top bunk which was even hotter. When we arrived there it was HOT like 36 degrees and I felt like I was getting cooked on a stove. If I didn't have any water in Rome I would die of dehydrating. We went to a place where bulls used to fight and it was very old but pretty in a way and we went to many churches
and made many wishes also. But it was the end of this adventure on July the 17th when we had to go back to Canada.

When we where in the plane I felt very sad and depressed that the traveling had to end so soon. But during the flight I also spent some time looking at the pictures we took and I was quite surprised when I saw that there were over 600 pictures that we took during this trip. I was also glad that after this whole long flight that we get to eat in a resturant after. So this was the end of my wonderful trip to London, Paris and Rome.
