Rome! Let me start off by saying I'm sorry peeps but I wasn't a fan! We arrived New Year's Eve. We had dinner at a pizza place and then back on the bus for the 40 minute ride to our hotel. After unpacking and getting rugged up we were back on the bus ready to get dropped into the city to bring in the Nee Year in Rome! We had one goal! Get to the Colosseum by midnight! The crowd was massive! We detoured a little with a stop off at the Trevi fountain, the Spanish S...

On the way to Florence we had a quick stop off at the Leaning Tower of Pisa! Pretty funny to see! Florence! We were only here for a short time but it was a great time!

It certainly is very interesting. Google it! That night we had dinner at the hotel and it the hay early. The next d...

Phew! It's been a big few days! We left Paris and head to Kriens which is just outside of Lucerne, which is in Switzerland! Look at how my Geography is improving already! Lucerne is one of my favourite places so far! It was absolutely beautiful. We arrived on the 23rd Dec, had a lovely dinner and crashed in our super cosy beds......still struggling with that personal space issue. Christmas Eve morning kicked off with a cable ride up Mt Pilatus. The views were spe...
