QUESTION: Which trip do you like like
better this one or the previous?
ANSWER: I liked them both because they
were both very different trips. I thought i would never experience something
like this. The first time everything was brand new to me and we got to see all
of the big cities. This time, we stayed a lot longer and I got travel by train,
which is something I have never done in my life.
QUESTION: Did you like visiting the big
cities or the small ones?
ANSWER: I liked the small cities better
because you get to see a lot more in a shorter period of time. This trip we had
a whole month to see everything so it felt like we had a lot more time to just
sightsee, try different foods and get to know more about the countries.
QUESTION: What was your favorite city in Germany?
ANSWER: I would say Cologne because I
loved the weather there, the food was very good, the people were friendly and I
loved all the sights that we saw. My favorite part was the riverwalk that had
the hohenzollernbrucke bridge. The bridge was so fun because of all the locks
that people had left on the railings.
QUESTION: What was your favorite city in France?
ANSWER: I loved Lyon! It was so
beautiful, and I absolutely loved the cathedral. I have never seen anything so
beautiful in my life. The decorations inside the church were so amazing and the
outside was just as good. I really liked the weather there and the city was not
that big but it had tons to see. The food was awesome, too.

QUESTION: What was your favorite city in
Italy?
ANSWER: My favorite has to be Venice. I
loved the way the city was laid out on the water and all the canals that ran
through the city.I didn't even have to worry about traffic or transportation
because everyone walked. And italy has the most tasty foods in the world and
the gelato is out of this world. My favorite site was Piazza San Marco.

QUESTION: What did you think about Poland?
ANSWER: I like it because it was
affordable and there was a lot to see. The food was delicious, the weather was
so nice, lots of beautiful buildings and I got a chance to see where John Paul
II was born. That was the highlight of the trip for me. I also was glad that we
got to see Auschwitz because I didn't know a lot about the Holocaust before
this trip but it was so sad to learn about all the suffering the jewish
people went through especially the children.

QUESTION: Did you get any souvenirs that
you like?
ANSWER:I got a lot of souvenirs that I liked
and some trinkets for my family in Mexico. My favorite was the John Paul II
keychain that we got in Wadowice. Also a beaded glass bracelet from Venice. And
I am so sure that the boys are going to love the chocolates that we got for
them.
QUESTION: What was your least favorite
city?
ANSWER: I would have to say that it was
Zurich, but it isn’t that I don’t like it. It just doesn’t have that much to
see and for me it was really expensive. I could never afford to live there. But
I was really glad that we went and see it. It was a good experience overall.
