and it continues...

I've already typed a post today but for some reason the actual posting of it did not work - so I'm going to try and recall what I already wrote and write it again!
I received news from my aunt today that seems to be along the theme of 2006! My dad's Uncle Ludwig passed away. I never had the opportunity to meet him as he lives in Germany, but I have heard many stories about him throughout my life. Uncle Ludwig is not only my dad's uncle but also his godfather, and my dad is his namesake~ we aren't able to go to the funeral either, but hopefully it is a nice tribute.
I really hope that I get to go to Holland, Germany, and thus Europe one day - in the not-so-distant future. I have only been on two trips in my life, Antigua and Mexico. I really enjoyed the beauty of Antigua. We were so lucky to be there for ten days and experience both the tourist things, but the island things as well since we knew people living there. It was definitely an experience I'll never forget. Cancun was also very nice, but not as beautiful as Antigua. We got to do all tourist things there, and I stayed in my first Resort which was incredible! My favourite day in Mexico was when we went to Xel-ha and the Tulum Ruins. If I were to go on another trip in the near future (assuming money available) it would probably eb to another beach/island location. I enjoy these types of places, but at the same time I would like to go to Europe - but thats more costly. One day though...one day.
