Prague Part 1

Hello everyone! I have landed in Prague, and may I just say this city is probably one of the most beautiful places I have ever seen. The buildings here are just so unique  but very fitting for the area. I took a LOT of pictures today, so I am going to split up the photos with a part 1 post today, and a part 2 post tomorrow (yes there are that many). So I hope you enjoy the pictures as much as I am enjoying Prague!


Really cool cathedral:


Inside:



The Prague National Museum behind the famous statue of Wenceslas (name of a square in Prague)!

Wenceslas Square:


Gourmet ham cooked in Prague!


Cathedral in Old Town Square!


And to finish off for this part, I took a picture with one of the locals, he says "hi!"


That's all for Part 1, but stay tuned for Part 2 with some even nicer photos! There's so much to see here in Prague so I hope you all follow along! Until tomorrow, thank you for reading!

Venice to Prague!

Hey everyone, today is my last day in Venice (unfortunately), and man was this place so cool. I mean, besides the canals everywhere, the boats, and the tiny little streets, the FOOD was so tasty! I took some more pictures of Venice in the daytime for you all to see, but I'm looking forward to Prague, as I've heard the sights there are really something else!

Train station next to the canal:


The canal is just so pretty:


And that's all for now, but stay tuned for some cool pictures from Prague! It's going to be a long train ride, but I am sure the pictures will be worth the length of the journey there! See you in Prague!

When in Rome...

Hey everyone! So today I decided: what the heck! Why not go ahead and catch a 6 AM train to Rome? While it was a very early morning, the sights and views of Rome were incredible! I managed to visit the Colosseum, and the palace of the Emperors! I took many, many, photos.. I hope they are all to your liking!

View of the countryside on the way there:


A very cool church:


The Grand Hotel in a fountain plaza...


More cool buildings!!


Oh, what's this?


Looks like..

The Colosseum!!


Such a cool building! 

The courtyard and somewhat still standing remains of the Emperor's palace!


Arch of Tidus..


Not sure what this building is called but I thought it was really cool!


Well that's all for today ladies and gents, I hope you liked my photos of Rome! Trust me, you all need to go there one day just to see these sights for yourselves, it is really worth the trip! Tonight is my last night here in Venice, and then tomorrow I am off to Prague, so stay tuned! Many more pictures and stories to come, thank you! You stay classy San Diego!

Venice Days!

Hello all! I finally got a chance to go around and explore Venice some more during the daytime! The canals are much prettier during the day as you can really see the true color of the water, and the occasional boat passing by adds a classy touch. Here are some photos I managed to snap today, I hope they are to your liking!


And what's Italy without at least one picture of the delicious pizza here? It was very yummy!


Cool architecture on the buildings:


Well that's all for today, but please stay tuned! Tomorrow I am taking the train very early to get to Rome! I will take as many pictures as I possibly can, so keep your eyes open for potential colosseum pictures and other cool photos! As always, thanks for reading, and if you want to support my travels and this blog please take a couple seconds to simply click on an ad or two on this page (you can close it immediately), thank you so much!
