My Trip To Europe!

Hi ya, thanks for coming back . In this blog I’m going to write a bit about my recent trip to Italy and France.
<--Coliseum
On December 16th my family and I boarded a two hour airplane to New Jersey. Then from New Jersey we went on our 6 hour plane ride to Paris, France. In Paris we went to, the Louve, Notre Dame, the Eiffel Tower, D’Orsay and the Sacre Coeur. When we saw the Eiffel Tower we went to the top! The view from the top was amazing! Paris was really cold, but it a lot of fun! We walked around everywhere; we also did a lot of fun shopping.

In Italy we went to Rome was the first city we stopped in. While in Rome we went to Trevi Fountain, The Spanish Steps, the coliseum, and the Vatican Museum. After the second day in Rome we took a train to Florence. In Florence we went to, the Uffizi, La Specola, Bargello,and the Academia. In Europe we went to a lot of different churches. They all had very pretty ceiling.



In Florence we took a couple side trips. The first side trip was to Sienna. Sienna is very pretty it has narrow streets and tall building. Then we went to the Leaning Tower of Pisa. Another side trip we went on was to Padua. Padua is a city that was built in honor of St. Anthony. Then we went to Venice. I think Venice is the coolest place in Italy. There are no streets just canals with boats.
To end this blog I want to say that I had a lot of fun in Europe! I hope you enjoyed learning about my recent trip to Europe!

My cats!

Hey, I’m guessing since you’re back you liked my last blog. As I mentioned in my last blog I have four cats; Sabrina, Salem, Stella, and Luna.



<--Stella Luna -->

First let’s learn a bit about Stella and Luna. Stella and Luna are three years old. We got them on Christmas Eve, 2005. Stella is the

active cat. She has a black face except a white point on her nose and between her eyes. Her body is also black and white. Luna is the fat cat. She is also black and white, but her face is mostly black. Stella and Luna like to hide and don’t like to be held or petted that much.



Now it’s Sabrina and Salem’s turn. Sabrina and Salem are just a little over one year old. We got them in February of 2008. They are black and white just like Stella and Luna. Salem and Sabrina look pretty much the same but Salem is like twice the size of her. Also Sabrina had a white tip on her tail. Unlike Stella and Luna, Sabrina and Salem love to be petted and held, As a matter of fact Sabrina is sitting right next to me as I type this.

That’s about all I have to say about my cats for now. Stay tuned I will be writing more posts in the near future.

About me!

Hello there, since this is my first official blog I thought that I'd tell you a little about myself!

My name is Carolynn Jeanne, although my friends and family call me Carrie! I was born on April 13th, 1996. My parents are Tony and Carol, I have a sister is named Katie. Katie and I are two years and four months apart. We are best friends even though we fight a lot. I have four cats, Sabrina, Salem, Stella, and Luna. I started school in a large private school. As I finished my second year my mother decided that this school wasn't a good fit for me. My mother then started the school I am going to now, Walden Community School. This school believes in hands on learning and not having a teacher be responsible for more than about 10 kids. Walden Community School is also multiage, I have friends that are 16, 10, and my age!

In my spare time I like to, play with my friends, swim, play my Wii with my friends, dance, play tennis, and go on bike rides with my friends. On my Wii I like to play, Mario Kart, Wii Fit, and other Mario games. I take dance lessons once a week with one of my friends. My friends and I go on bike rides almost every single weekend.

Well I don’t want to go on to long about me, so I’ll end this one and will write again soon.

Thanks for reading!
