Adventurer of the Seas cruise ship (Some time in July)
so if you enjoy food and a great adventure why not book your self a cruise...
Monte Carlo
Monte Carlo is an amazing place, especially if you're the typical girl who loves to shop, I however am not... If you love extreme sports like me, why not try wind surfing or paragliding at the beach, you won't regret it... Unless of course you die, but hey think positive.
Monte Carlo has amazing restaurants and ice cream bars, yet if you're not up for whole fancy restaurant experience, there's a ton of the typical American fast food junk round and about. I would recommend jean luc pele as the cakes where... how you say, f**king Amazin...!
The Shops, great I guess, tons of designer shops and stuff like that, tons of touristy shops to. Not a huge fan of shoppin so well, ermm what else can I say other than there were tons...

Pisa
Pisa is a beautiful place with amazing sights, Although I was only there for a day I believe that the leaning tower of Pisa And The surrounding area are simply magnificent, but be warned there's a hell load of people taking that all to obvious ''I'm holding up the leaning tower of Pisa'' pic so I wouldn't recommend falling into the trap yourself.
The stalls around Pisa are amazing!!! it's a brilliant place to by all your holiday souvenirs weather you want a snow globe a lighter or a fancy pack of fags this is the place to go ( I wouldn't recommend buying the fags as they'll be poorly produced... you'll also get a nasty case of lung cancer if you keep at them)
The food is amazing and the pizza was... how some would say bloody fantastic !

Dublin
![]() |
| my sister teddy on the tram in Dublin. |
Dublin is a very special place.It doesn't seem like a place were a kid would like if that's what your thinking WRONG!!! My sister and I loved Dublin evan her teddy did.
If it's your first day in Dublin or it's very rainy I would recommend the Guinness factory,it has a unusually fun environment and a lovely gift shop and at the top a bar (kids aloud too) with a view of Dublin and adults get free Guinness and kids get soft drink as far a I know anyway!
If you don't fancy the Guinness factory or you've already been try the leprechaun museum it's great fun even for the adults you can travel into a magical world and shrink to leprechaun size or so it seems,you can listen to story's at the end as well and there is also a brilliant shop at the end as well but it's not cheap .
If you've had enough of Dublin why not go on a tour a went on one with my mum dad and sister it was amazing and it stopped at a little village that has amazing restaurants a wool factory and a little sweet shop its awesome.

Disneyland Paris
![]() |
| My favourite stain glass window at the top of the castle |

The rides are fab such as space mountain the rocking roller coaster and there's much more fun kiddie rides such as the carousal , peter pan ride dumbos flying elephants and much more .
The Disneyland hotel is amazing with brilliant views and delicious food breakfast they have brilliant hospitality and 5 star rooms.
The food is half bored at breakfast weather you like yogurt , pastries , full English & even toast and cereals . tea is expensive but tasty whether you choose to eat in the Disney village and shop after or meet and great with the characters and after chilaxe in the spa or go for a swim or even play in the arcade this hotel will suit your every needs .
Rome

Rome is a lovely place to visit but , you need more than a week to see it all , you'll also need plenty of euros , as there are lots of fine dinning and ice cream the ice cream is the best in possibly the whole world from pistachio to ginger to mint to chocolate and even vimto and cola are popular flavors . Watch out for scamers my Dad ,sister and I were charged 20 euros EACH!!!
The Coliseum is a lovely sight inside or out , you can still feel the excitement in it you can get guided tours but I would suggest walking through the people on the tours did get in first but were out again in about 10 mins . My family just strolled through looking at the magnificent sights with a beautiful view.
There is some truly beautiful stops and you can higher golf cars to just remember to drive on the right side of the road.
There is
amazing art work and structure if only Britain had these amazing sights
they still have ORIGINAL public baths as well.The Vatican smelt weird
though I think it was because it was full of DEAD Popes.The Trevie fountain is truly a work of art its surrounded by amazing shops such as my sisters favourite a hand made one of a kind rag doll shop , and mine the hand made sweet shop there's some delicious combinations you would never think went together.
