Trip to Europe (from earlier this month)

Here is Kiana's account of her trip to Europe. The link following has a slideshow presentation of pictures and captions.

Today is the last day of my vacation. That means  have to do everything I can! It also means back to…….. SCHOOL! I remember the first day I left. I missed my family and friends. Then BAM! My vacation is over. BOOOOOOOO! It was  good 12 days of fun. So let me tell you about my trip. The first place we went to was Copenhagen, Denmark. We went shopping, ate at good restaurant food, and we went City sightseeing. After two days it was time to get on the cruise! I stayed in a room with my mom and grandma.The same thing in The Crown Plaza.It was really awsome becuase theres doors room to room so my mom asked if we could open the doors so we can see my grandma and aunt.The first stop was Berlin, Germany. We had a two hour train ride just to get there. Then we went to Tallin, Estonia. Russia was my favorite excursion! We saw The Great Palace, The Catherine’s Palace, even lunch was included with our tour. The next place was Helsinki, Finland. It was the most boring one. It was only 2 hours. They did a photo stop and time to get souvenirs. At  least we got free Wi-Fi at the store by our ship. The last place was Stockholm, Sweden. That tour was only 3 hours. So it was a little bit like the Finland one. We went to a museum. After we stayed in a store by the ship. Believe me when ever we go to the stores it’s always packed. Just for the free Wi-Fi. All the workers and guest stay until they hear to get on board noise. Did you know Sweden does not have Swedish fish? Unless you get one in the ocean! Hahaha! Today was the last sea day. Then we are coming back home. Did I tell you I got to sleep on the top bunk on the ship? Well I did. Did you ever went on a vacation.
