Europe 4: Venice



We left Paris to head to Venice, Italy on an overnight train. We went through Switzerland to head there. As you can see in the photo it was a small little room with bunk beds. It had a little counter, a mirror, some hangers, and a little sink. The bathroom was in another car on the train. I would have to say it was an experience. Happy to say that I have done, but would probably not do it again.




We finally reached Venice and when you got out of the train station you walked straight out and there was the Grand Canal. It was really breath taking and such an amazing experience. We took a water taxi to St. Marcos Square. And we got to see all the beautiful sights of Venice.




St. Marcos Square is a place that is very famous and popular. But I realized there wasn't too much to do there except shop, eat, or drink. Which trust me those are in my top five favorites things to do. Besides travel and watch movies/tv shows all day. I will post more of the sight seeing photos on my Facebook for you to see.




Sadly, we didn't get to do too much in Venice because our train was over 2 hours late when we left Paris and we arrived about over 3 hours late to the train station in Venice. I would love to go back and get the full experience and do some tours. It is very beautiful and i recommend going to Venice if you are visiting Italy. My one really negative comment would be that I found a lot of the people who worked there were very rude. They talked to everyone like they were stupid and that didn't really care. Which is a little sad since I work in a tourist area. Guest service really is everything.

Shanghai Museum & Chinese Buddhist Temple // Travel

I went to Shanghai a few months ago and I wanted to create some posts about the experience. The first day we were day we had a guided tour into Shanghai. Our first spot (the photo above) was the Shanghai Museum. This was a very busy museum and inside was so beautiful and they had so many different rooms full of history. It was really amazing and our tour guide was full of lots of information. I did this tour because I really didn't know anything about Shanghai besides the new Disney Park was there. I really love learning about the difference in culture and understanding their history of their city. The next stop he took us to was a Buddhist temple. Oh my goodness it was beautiful and amazing to see all the people coming into pray to the different gods. I also think it was amazing to see different tour groups from all over the world coming into here and being peaceful and respectful of the religion. I really got a full understand of Buddhism and I have to say it is an am

Shanghai Disney

One of the really unique things they have at Shanghai Disney is the Alice in Wonderland maze. The big attraction is the big queen of hearts head in her part of the garden. It's a really simple and fun attraction to do in the park. It is located behind the castle in their Fantasy Land. Obviously, the big talk of Shanghai Disney is their Pirates of the Caribbean ride. Let me tell you I could just ride it all day long. It is honestly mind blowing and I have never experienced a ride like it before. I was lucky enough to ride it twice in the same day as well as the Tron Lightcycle Coaster. However I do prefer the pirates ride over the tron. ride.  The castle is so huge and beautiful and I had to put a picture of me in front of it. Now below is the video of my day there minus the Royal Banquet Hall which I will do a separate post on. I just would like to warn some travelers about some of the things I noticed there. Shanghai Disney people do not really under stand line

GeekyCon 2016 Highlights

Meeting Maxwell Glick and Jon Cozart after the Disney sing-a-long after being on stage with them during a Tangled song and being in the front row dancing with them, two very sweet gentleman and I'm so happy I got to meet them and getting some youtube advise from Mr. Cheezypop himself! At the Charity ball I got to meet Ty Simpkins who is from Jurassic World and the Insidious films. He was also very sweet and nice of him to come out of the V.I.P area to interact with his fans and take photos for free and have nice conversations with everyone. That same night after the dance was the Harry Potter and the Cursed Child midnight release party! Potter Puppet Pals did a show, there was real life wizard chess, quid ditch matches, costume contests, being sorted by the sorting hat, and much more to do. It was so much fun and of course getting the book was icing on the cake. Then I got to meet Pemberly Digital! Frankenstein M.D., The Lizzie Bennet Diaries, and my p
