Europe!!!

OK i know I'm a slacker its almost been a month since i have been to Europe and i haven't updated my blog.. its been a bit crazy since i have been back!! 
    I cant even to begin how much fun i had on this amazing trip! Kiley and I flew from Washington Dc to Amsterdam then from Amsterdam to Prague. once we got to Prague it was like 11:00 am so immediately we Set out to see the city! I don't think I was prepared for what I was actually going to see.. Prague is a Beautiful smallish city its Very old and has amazing  architecture. Our hotel was in the middle of the city, so it made it Really easy to walk mostly everywhere! the first day we did a bike tour which  was SO much fun! the second day we did a walking tour that went pretty much all over the city and up to the Palace. they view from the Palace was absolutely stunning! later that night we did a night tour.. can i just tell you every tour we went on we were the youngest by like 50 years.. NO JOKE! anyways the night tour was OK.. our driver was drunk and we hit a couple of curbs, the tour guide well umm I'm not sure if it was a man or woman?? other then that it was really good! The Next day we woke up pretty early got on a REALLY nice bus and headed for Vienna. Once we got there we had no idea where are hotel was, and lets just say its REALLY hard trying to read a map in a different language. finally after a half hour or so I saw this some what attractive guy walking towards me so i simply asked him if he could help us. Of course he did, he was so nice! 
So we checked in and decided to go to the Castle that was really famous in Austria. it was SO pretty the gardens were amazingly perfect it had a gorgeous view of the entire city. that day it was actually really cloudy an rainy but it was still really pretty! Vienna was pretty it was pretty big so it was kinda hard getting around. it rained most of the time we were there, which kinda sucked. the last day in Vienna we decided to take a train to Salzburg best decision i think we made!! Salzburg was so Awesome!! the sound of music was filmed there and i LOVE that movie!! i got to see where they film pretty much everything i got my picture by the Original gazebo yes i know i was in Heaven. we saw where Mozart was born and his house he grew up in. salzburg was beautiful! 
    The next day we got on a train and headed to Budapest. our hotel was SO AMAZING! we were right on the water with an amazing view. i think the hop on hop off tour is the way to go! it lets you see everything and explains what things are and the history behind it! Budapest has a lot of beautiful buildings and at night the whole city GLOWS! it was honestly on of the most beautiful places i have ever been! I was really sad to leave. when we went to the airport i honestly just wanted to run out and stay! So when we went to Amsterdam they made me check in my carry on.. in Amsterdam we had like a 21 hour lay over so we stayed in a hostel yes I stayed in a hostel. we got to see Anne Franks house where they hid from the Nazis, that was really cool! we walked through the Red Light District which i DO NOT recommend anyone do! absolutely   disturbing! but hey it was defiantly an adventure. i honestly don't think i slept at all that night!! people in Amsterdam are very big party people so there was a lot of people that probably don't remember alot of what they were doing because they were high or drunk. it was really sad! 
This is just a glimps of my trip if i actually wrote everything that actually happened it might take a while! im only going to post a couple of pictures.. kiley took all the good ones so when i get them i stick some of them on as well!! I had The TIME OF MY LIFE!! this trip only made my traveling bug WORSE i need/want to travel the world!
