New Zealand
This was my favorite place in all of New Zealand! It's a small little place called Queenstown, on the very southern part of the country.
My cousin and I had the opportunity to eat at a legitimate PUB! In fact, it was the same pub where some of Lord Of The Rings was filmed.
Me with my little brother, Tyler, at a Kiwi farm. Let me remind you, he is four years younger than me.
A great day to visit the Tasman Sea.
And then an earthquake decided to happen in Christchurch. |
Europe
Lets start with Paris! Our trip began in France, giving us the opportunity to visit some of the most iconic places in the world; including, The Louvre, Notre Dame, La Tour Eiffel, Arc De Triumph, and of course a Crepe & Baguette Cafe.
Our next adventure awaited us in Prague, Czech Republic. This was really cool because my oldest brother served his 2 year mission in the beautiful city. We had the opportunity to have him as our translator and tour guide.
Yes. This was the view from our hotel room.
We then proceeded to Berlin, Germany.
Me in front of the famous Charlie's Checkpoint. It was the Berlin Wall crossing point from East Berlin to West Berlin during the Cold War.
The Brandenburg Gate is a former city gate, rebuilt in the late 18th century as a neoclassical triumphal arch, and now one of the most well-known landmarks of Germany.
Our very last stop on our trip was Copenhagen, Denmark. Everything there was green and luscious, due to the amount of rainfall Denmark receives.
When we made it to Odense,Denmark, we had the opportunity to visit Hans Christian Anderson's house he grew up in. Hans was a Danish author and poet. Although a prolific writer of plays, travelogues, novels, and poems, Andersen is best remembered for his fairy tales; particularly, the Disney classic, The Little Mermaid.
