England and more

Links to pictures: here

England is friggen sweet. I would totally move here. London has to be one of the best cities I've ever been to for someone my age. The nightlife looked (yeah, looked) like it rocked. I'd love to come back and hit some of the bars. I bet they'd rule.

So we meant to head to France today on a Ferry but the weather wouldn't allow it. So we spent another day here and we checked out Bath. Its the home of these Roman bath houses that existed when the Roman Empire spread to this island. It was pretty tight. I've never seen so much influence regarding the Roman Empire before. It was cool. Maybe in Spain and such we will see more.

Other things we saw in England included Jessica Simpson in "Chicago", the London Eye, one of those Red double decker busses, Parlament and the Big clock connected to that (apparently its erroneously called "Big Ben"), their nice train system. We had a few long rides on that. It was nice. Saw Salisbury (Steak) Cathedral, St. Paul's Cathedral (way cool), cute british accents, Beefeaters (not so still), the Queen's Castle (Winchester or something), Stonehenge and more.

Anyway, we are off to France. We are taking an overnight ferry to Caen which is near Normandy. We are gonna do that whole thing tomorrow then hop an early afternoon train to Paris, then another night train to Barcelona. It'll be tight. I still want to do the French wine with a Baguette when I get there. It'll rule I'm sure! With all that night travelling we will be Le Tired so we might need a nap.

Iceland.

we got to iceland alright. we are in the hostel right now. so far we have seen quite a few things...including about a ton of rain. it is pretty cold here too...but we went to the blue lagoon (hot springs powered by lava) which was awesome on a very cold day!!

Kathy and I ate whale today. That was fun. i think it came directly from the harbor we are near. you can go whalewatching near here. i think they caught one of them and gave it to us....maybe not...

anyway...we will be in england tomorrow and for a few days. Then its off to warm weather in France and Spain...have i mentioned i´m stoked about spain? and that this keyboard has all these odd symbols. and the shift key is small. and sites default to not english...maybe icelandic...which makes sense.

i guess thats about it.
more later.

On our way to Europe

So we are off. We are pretty much all packed up. Thinking of some last minute things but we are pretty much ready to go.

So I wasn't totally stoked about it till just today or yesterday. I was talking to my buddy Jason and he mentioned some of the stuff he did when he was there. Man I am stoked. One of the things I didn't realize is that Barcelona is right on the coast of the mediternanianum. I can't wait. I love the water. I have a feeling that that is going to be my favoritest place in the world. I think even better than Hawaii. Oh man I'm stoked.

In other news...the creators of Youtube got bought out for $1.5B in google stock.

Wow.
