Adair goes to Europe

For the first time ever, Adair became a world traveller. This site documents her emails back to her family throughout the course of her stay. The plan: travel extensively through Italy, France, Sweeden, Austria and then spend a few weeks taking classes at Oxford University in Great Britain. It's a good life.

It's a GO people, the Blog has been Adair-approved!

Tell your friends, this blog is up and running!
Adair has given me permission to post her email updates from her trip across Europe. I will try to post them as soon as we get them.

Adair,
Matt was thinking that since you don't have much time at a computer that he could create a travel blog for you while you are gone. He can paste your email text into the blog and add any pictures you send. This way, anyone in the family can catch up on where you are and what you are doing. I wanted to ask you first because once it is posted, it will be accessible from the web, so I need to make sure you are comfortable with that. Let me know what you think and then I will let Matt know.

Hope you are having fun!!

hey, that's fine.
i probably wont send pictures for a little while, i'm just bumming interent time from other people's computers. it costs money, so hopefully once i get to oxford i can send out lots of pictures. :) but yes, that would be great.
i'm having a great time, miss you all!!!
love,
Adair

Day Three - Running Late for the Art Show

hey everyone!
i am having a lot of fun... almost was late for the museum today because we got lost. if i was late, my grade would have dropped by a letter grade. needless to say we ran like no tomorrow, i had a small asthma attack, buuuut we made it and laughed later.
my bed has a big fluffy comforter and i eat lots of brie cheese in the mornings. i have also learned not to ask what the food is, i just eat it. we leave on sunday and go to italy.
the picture below was taken today in front of the kunsthistoriches.

austria is beautiful, wish you all were here. i miss everyone, a lot.
i also saw the kiss today, it was incredible...mom was right.
well, i'll write more later.
Love,
Adair

Austria

hello again.
our welcome dinner last night was typical austrian and delicious.
today i went to the kunsthistoriches and saw pieter bruegel and some other artists work. tomorrow i go to the upper belvedere and see gustav klimts the kiss.
rosa has emailed me but im not sure how to get in touch with her or where ill be so hopefully i can meet up with her.
austria is beautiful, the weather was amazing today.
i have been eating a lot of pizza, mainly because it is cheap but i have been forcing myself to take the stairs to hopefully not gain as much weight.
tomorrow will be a busy day but will be fun. ill try to dowmload some pictures soon and email them to you.
i miss everyone and hope everything is well.
