The Netherlands: Surfing

The Netherlands was great. We had a hotel there and it was so nice. There was a misunderstanding with the rooms so we had to have two rooms. Me and my sister had a room and my parents had a room. I think that was a good idea to have two rooms because I was crazy in Kadyn’s room like crazy. We were close to the train station so we could take a train everywhere. In Rotterdam, I lost my...

Brussels, Belgium: Mannequin Pis

Brussels was ok. Our apartment in Brussels was not good because it was on top of a bar called LA MACHINE. It was so loud that me and my dad let the girls sleep outside all night I slept in the room behind them but we only had it a bit better. For some reason, I slept so well there.  Luckily we only stayed there for 3 nights and 4 days. On the last night in Brussels, we watched the...

Paris, France: The Olympics

But when the game ended there was nothing good so I got a giant cookie and a chocolate...

Bern, Switzerland: Mt. Pilatus

Technically it wasn’t in Bern but who cares. Mount Pilatus was 7000ft tall. It is massive. The mount...

Munich, Germany: My Bucket Hat

Munich was excellent.  Our Airbnb was cool. When we got to the Airbnb no one was there. We had to wait outside for 30 minutes. When the guy showed up he was nice and apologised about 3 times. Our Airbnb had two levels like Prague. And we had a surprise when he left, it had one of those airplane things that carry all of the drinks and snacks [drink cart]. My favourite thing we did in Munich was when I...
