Like, a month ago; I went on a holiday because one of my cousins was getting married in Italy, and the other in Canada so I went around the world -.- I thought I'll share my photos because nowerday internet allows me to do so.
Here's some pictures in spoiler
Here's some pictures in spoiler
Spoiler!
Leaving Brisbane International (The Airport at my capital city.)
On the Star Ferry in Hong Kong. Looking back at Hong Kong island and our hotel.
View from Victoria Peak
Nathan Road
Then I flew to Rome, Italy.
The Colosseum
The Roman Forum
The Popes Guards
Circus Maximus
Then we caught a train from Rome to Riomaggiore (Will add pics of that soon)
Then we went to Pisa and caught a plane to Paris
Arch de Triumph
Eiffel Tower
View of Paris from the Eiffel Tower
We then went to London, England via the EuroStar
Me at the houses of Parliament
Westminster Abbey
My first Squirrel encounter in Hyde Park
Changing of the Guards - Buckingham Palace
We flew from London to San Francisco
Alcatraz
San Fran CBD
Lombard Street
The Golden Gate Bridge
After leaving San Francisco we had a short 45 minute flight down to Los Angeles, where we were staying in Hollywood. (Accidentally was driving on the wrong side of the road at one point).
A Hollywood sign
The Official Hollywood
Graumans Chinese Theatre
Santa Monica Pier
Memorial Day at L.A Cemetery (Went to pay my respects for your amazing American soldiers)
From L.A we drove by car to Las Vegas (What a boring drive through desert -.-)
Stratophere
View from our Hotel
The Strip at night
The Grand Canyon
From Las Vegas we flew to Orlando, because I wanted to go to these (which I later realised) 'highly overrated' theme parks.
Universal Studios
Disney Castle by night
From Orlando we flew a short flight to New York (Maybe it seemed slow because I had a whole row of seats and I slept ;D)
View of the Empire State Building from E21 ST.
Times Square
Yankees game (In the bleachers, we were told the it was the best atmosphere... maybe too much atmosphere?)
Looking over NYC from Top of the Rock (Rockefeller Center)
Afternoon
Night
View of lower Manhattan from the Brooklyn Bridge
Empire State and NY from Brooklyn Bridge
Was a bit disappointed with the street vendors Hotdogs, they were like, minute.
After New York we flew to Detroit (Stayed in a Airport hotel, didn't exactly feel like going into Detroit, funny that) We also went and watched a boring Nascar race. (Not even going to bother with pics of Detroit).
From Detroit we went into Toronto -
View from CN Tower
Niagra Falls:
American Side
Canadian Side
After Canada we drove to Buffalo and flew down to Phoenix for a stop over and back on to L.A Where I experienced my first 'somewhat' celebrity encounter, Bam Margera.
The next day, we flew to Hawaii to break the flight back to Australia. Won't put photos of Hawaii as we didn't take many, we spent it relaxing.
After a boring flight home, because we had no freaking TV on the chair infront of us for 10 hours! (Stupid Qantas)
