We just made it to our hotel in Barlad! I would have written another blog sooner except my stupid computer language was in Dutch. -_-
I'm sitting in the hotel room waiting for someone to talk to,to get online. :P
The flight to Amsterdam was nice... Very small space but at least I got to watch movies and eat dinner and breakfast. :) I watched Charlie and the Chocolate Factory and an episode of Glee! They fed us cashews and a drink for the first part of the flight. Then we got dinner -- Chicken and pasta, a nasty potato salad (which I didn't eat), Crackers and cheese, And delicious carrot cake. (I don't even like carrot cake but I LOVED this one.) Then they gave us time to do whatever we wanted and then served breakfast -- Egg, potatoes, and yogurt... (I didn't eat anything but the potatoes) Lol.

When we got to Amsterdam we went to our hotel. We got a mood room... So awesome. The shower had mood lights that changed as you changed your settings in your room. The bed was pretty big and had a blanket that I thought was a pillow. LOL.
When we had rested up a bit then we headed out to see the city. Wow.... It was crazy. People drinking everywhere and smoking non stop. And every shop we went in had something to do with weed.... We walked around trying to find Anne Frank's house and then finally had to ask some people. Lol.... We walked in the rain and it was cold. Sorta like spring back home. haha. So... I didn't think I would be almost ran over by a bicycle... I was wrong. Me and mom had to be VERY careful because apparently the bicyclers don't have to follow street signs, oh well, we lived! :)

Now we are in Romania and sitting in the hotel room. There is a wedding downstairs and it is very very loud. We are on the 2nd floor and the wedding is on the bottom and we can still hear it as if we were standing in the same room as the music. -_- And there are a million dogs barking outside my window. greatttt..... Lol. Guess I am going to need some ear plugs..

I just want everyone to know I miss them already!!....But I am having fun here. Lol.
My team members are great. I think I already have an idea of who I like the most.. But tomorrow there will be a grandfather and his grandchildren coming. A boy who is 15 and a girl who is 13.. I can't wait to meet them. It will be nice to have someone my age to hang out with. :)

Well.... Unless someone gets online to talk to me I think I am heading to bed. Goodnight everyone!!
