I am alive

this is a weird key board so if i make a big mistake then that is why, it is hard to fight mussel memory! The rest of london was great the place we stayed in was 10 times better. we saw lots of cool things. Cory if you read this you have a doppelganger in london I swore you were in the London Natural history museum! The museum was not as cool as the one in new york but it was free. we also watched the England/Germany game in a pub this was insane! before it became clear they would lose everyone was cheering and chanting, when the goal was not counted everyone booed the ref everytime he came on screen it was so much fun!
Amsterdam:
I really liked Amsterdam I had dutch pancakes which are amazing! then we went to Anne Franks house, I almost cried a few times it was incredible to see what she described in real life. the thing about Amsterdam is that it is just so dang pretty. we did another free walking tour that was fun and interesting. on it we met a girl named kim from Austrailia she happened to also be in our hostel and in our room. I really enjoyed hanging out with her. we went back to the Hostel (that was in the middle of the red light district) and started talking to this other aussie about how sometimes America sees different endings to movies than the rest of the world. then the four of us wondered around Amsterdam until we got hungry then we stopped got food and watched the Portugal vs Spain game, well the first half anyways. on our way back we stumbeled upon the Eclipes primire full of a red carpet and teenage girls all dressed up. we asked if anyone famous would be there and apprently famous dutch people were so we decided to leave. walking through the red light district near dark was interesting, the streets were full of men and it was just a strange culture. we hadnt slept at all the previous night so we went to bed fairly early. in hindsight I wish we had longer there, there was so much we did not see.
Brussels:
Boring. not much to do here and we had to get a later train to Paris so we were here for almost 2 days. the best thing was our hosts, they were so nice and we caught up on Lie to Me which makes me laugh. We also slept in until past 10 Which was glorious! Belgium waffles in Belgium best ever and belgium chocolate!!!! we are off to paris soon! I will update this as soon as I can.
