Well done Maria, I thoroughly enjoyed reading your story. I particularly liked the "things I learned today" section. Thanks for all the advice. Can't wait to do my own travels now!

Thanks! I was wondering if anyone on here ever saw it. Wink

I may do either the Berlin/Prague/Vienna or the Venice/Amsterdam/Munich tour this summer - can't decide!

YAY! The hyperlinks don't work unless you put a "www" in the address, then remove it. Bah! Leave a comment if you liked the blog. Hasta!

Wow I love your blog, thanks for sharing your experience!
You should be a writer or books on traveling recommending people to do this or that like Rick Steve.

Really like the pictures. I was still undecided about going to visit Europe or not, thanks to you I will definitely go for this experience of a lifetime.

Londong, Germany, Italy, Switzerland, Paris, and then Greece, Spain for this summer 2006. Smiler

i have to say your website is wonderful, see ing all your photos from your european magic tour just reminded me about my euro discovery tour with contiki, by the way like you i had the best time of my life to. by the way what kind of camera do you have? my friend sarah was scared to go on a contiki trip by herself, but after she saw your photos she already booked now.

by the way your hot looking.

so you keep on doing what your doing you crazy cowgirl from houston.

im iaya from los angeles

OK, I am not a cowgirl, and I am not from Houston. :P

I am from FLORIDA, yo!

Dunno why, but I have no urge whatsoever to go to the Greek Islands. Idea sort of bores me. Gotta try Eastern Europe next. Cheers!

This log was great! I am doing London, Paris and Amsterdam Septmeber 14-23 and now I feel much better prepared for what to expect. My friend and I are skipping out on the Stonehenge/Bath excursion and the Moulin Rouge in favor of saving money and having more exploratory time in each city. Your descriptions and photos were awesome though and really helpful!

Hi Maria,

I was just looking thru your photos and they are beautiful. Would you mind telling me which camera you are using or which one you just purchased?

TIA

Great pictures! It looks like you had fun. I am planning a trip myself. I heard that the Tours in London are great. Is that true? I am looking over some brochures and see some amazing Luxury London Hotels, the price is up there especially after the exchanged rate. Hopefully I can make the trip this summer.
