DUBLIN

Irish people are some of the nicest people on God's green earth. It is one of the few places in Europe I've been (the only place) where they actually like americans....wierd. You might think Dublin is lacking in the realm of architecture but you would be wrong. The Guiness museum is an incredible building designed in the style of the Chicago School of Architecture, but that's not all...Dublin is also home to one of Calatrava's famous bridges.

BERLIN

Honestly...kinda dreary. it rained the whole time we were there. So i guess i'll talk about the buildings. Sony center was incredible! The Jewish Museum was also interesting but the exterior kinda fell flat for me. It looks much better in pictures than it does in person. Berlin is full of amazing history, architecture and bratwurst (or bockwurst).

MILAN

We only spent a day and a half in Milan. It was more than enough. The Duomo is amazing and so is the surrounding shopping area but honestly....that's all there is to see. Also...Diablo hotel, probably not the best idea i've ever had in my life. The New Trade Fair building is not only difficult to find but CLOSED. It is still under construction to we could only see it from outside the fence. We arrived only a week before it opened. shucks!

PARIS

That's right....four cities....boom....roasted. Needless to say, Paris is pretty cool. We spend 3 full days there and saw EVERYTHING! we didn't stop moving the entire time. I think Paris might be my favorite city so far. Le Corbusier's Apartment building (although not easy to find) is worth seeing if you are in Paris, he's kind of a big deal. There is also this think called the Eiffel Tower, highly recommend it. 

     So...to sum it all up, im exhausted!
