More Griping

Today's Grammar Gripe is people on tv, radio and other media outlets. I find it annoying when you are watching the news and the person that is hired to talk screws up his/her grammar. So if you are ever asked to talk on the news, radio or other media outlets, remember that I am watching...



Sorry about the lack of a good example, I couldn't think of a good one.

Europe, Day Nine

Okay, I have not posted for the last few days because our internet has been having issues. Also this entry was written the day after the day mentioned, so details, again, are a bit skewed.




Yesterday we woke up, got the luggage out, ate, exc. and got on the bus, destination, Pelesh. On the way I tried to pay attention to what the tour guide was saying but 1: it was yesterday and 2: my mind wandered a bit. The first stop in Pelesh was a monastery with two churches, an old one and a new one. The old one was smaller and not used as much and the new one was bigger, shineyer and more used. After looking at the monastery for a little bit we went up the hill to one of the fanciest palaces you will ever see. The inside was very impressive, intricate woodwork, detailed paintings and fancy sculptures. The part of the castle that we saw was only the main living areas like the library, the study and the music room. The most interesting room for me was the armory. After finishing in Pelesh, we left for Brasov. When we got there we rested for a bit and then went to see the main pedestrian area, came back to the hotel and met with the rest of the group for the midevil dinner. The restaurant was close, so a short drive. The food was good, the desert was my favorite, and the show was enjoyable. After the festivity were over we drove back to the hotel and went to bed.
