If anyone has any better pics don't hesitate to post and rate. I need to get this done ASAP. Like this Monday!

This is a picture of an inland see, to be honest I was not very impressed as it does not look that big.
This is a famous beach with red sand (mind-you I can't remember the name of the beach)

This is inside a cave near the red sand beach
Well now you have an idea of what I saw while I was in Malta. After being there for a few days I returned to the airport to catch my 6:30 flight back to Amsterdam.

Well that is everything.

Becky's summer house
The high jumping spot (the water got really deep instantally, if I were to guess at the depth I would say at least 20 feet give or take)

The normal jumping spot (much closer to the water)
Aziruses window (or something along those lines)

Hey all


Alright so as I am sure that I have said now and then I am just back from my trip to Malta. Oh am I sorry does that sound like I am bragging, well that is very astute of you because that was exactly what I was doing.


Anyways I ended up flying out on Ryanair at 10:10 in the morning on Thursday, I must say that the trip was not near as bad as I feared (being that I was flying a budget airline). I arrived in Malta at about 2:00 and was picked up by my friend and we headed to her parents place (where I was staying for the time that I was there). My friends parents live in a 350 year old farm house and I must say that it was absolutely beautiful, has stone floors and is very antique feeling. After settling it was off to explore Malta:

One last thing

Hi family

I just wanted to post this movie of the piano man playing as he was really good.

I hope that this video works.  Also I wanted to let you know that I will probably not be around next week as I will be in Malta for a bit of a holiday and to visit a friend for a few days.

Love you all and hopefully I will talk to you this week.

Love

Antwerp

Hi all

I know that it has been a while since I have posted and I am sorry about that I will try to post more often.  Anyways after finishing my last exam a few friends and I decided that we had spent too much time in a library and needed to get out and have a little fun.  After quickly ruling out flights to Warsaw and taking the train to Berlin we decided to head to Antwerp for a few days.  The trip was a bit of a bust as we had a bit of a string of bad luck when it came to Antwerp but it was still an adventure which is always fun.  Here are some pics from the trip.


The was one of the first sights that we saw when we got out of central station.  This piano man was amazing he had a piano hooked up to the back of his bike and was awesome.


This inside of the church seen below.



The central square in Antwerp, it is very much like the central square in Brussels



The was an amazing cathedral and we were able to get in just before a mass started, it was difficult to get this picture and I ended up having to lie flat on my back to get this picture.




Inside the cathedral, it was just as beautiful inside as it was outside.



This picture is for grandpa.



This was a modern art building that we found and ended up going in to see the collection (the art collection was really cool but they didn't allow pictures), anyways the pool you see behind me was filled with water and after a caution step in we realized that it seemed to be shallow however this was not universally the case and this was found out the hard way by myself.


MMMM Belgium Waffles


A harp store, it was a little unusual to see an entire store dedicated to harps but it was cool.

Anyways this gives you a quick idea of the trip.  Well I hope that you enjoy the pictures.

Love

Wes
