This is a map of our route around Europe.  It was the Contiki European Whirl tour.  "Whirl" doesn't even begin to describe the speed at which we covered the continent!  I think I actually remember what the pictures are of, but I don't remember taking some of them (hmm- alcohol related perhaps?!).  Anyway, I miss the gang from the tour, and I'd do it again in an instant.

Below are some links to collages of my trip pictures:

Amsterdam	Rome
St. Goar	Florence
Munich	Lauterbrunnen
Vienna	Paris
Venice	and back to London for Goodbyes

Katie's Top 10 (in no particular order!)	Here are some pictures I took while hanging out in London before the tour
Hiking in Switzerland Drinking beer in the Hofbrauhaus Canal cruise in Amsterdam Skulling contest in St. Goar Climbing the stairs of as many domes and towers as I could find The Eiffel Tower at night THE SHOPPING The gondola ride in Venice Schnaps tasting (vile tasting stuff, but fun none the less...) THE PEOPLE!!!

What's next for me?  Well, I'm going to Austria at Christmas with my brother to learn how to snowboard.  Should be fun!  And of course some travel around Asia is definitely in my future :-)  I have to put all my hard work at studying Mandarin to practice!  I still want to visit Australia, Scandinavia, Spain, Greece and climb Mt Kilimanjaro- just to name a few places!  Basically, I just want to do a ton more travelling- perhaps I'll see some of you again along the way...



If there are any pictures here that you'd like, just email me and I'll send them along!
