Weird and wacky changing rooms!

The Isle of May

\

The isle of May is a little island from afar but once close and personal with these birds you can see the abundance of them. On the isle of may there are more or less a quarter of a million seabirds and 90 thousand puffins!!! When I was there Terns (a very protective seabird) dive-bombed us but, once past that the trails that led across the island led us to coves filled with many breeds of birds! My advice is the following: If you go there, bring a hat and binoculars!

The Haribo factory

The Haribo Factory in France is amazing! Filled with sweets and sugar its enticing flavors can make your taste buds tingle! There are clothes made out of candy and machines that hand press free samples for you. At the end, the store is filled with bulk candy galore!!!!!!!

Camera Obscura

At Camera Obscura you can have all your weird and wacky ideas come to life! Ever wanted to be bigger than your parents or smaller than your kids? Ever wanted your brother or sisters head on a platter? Go ahead! At Camera Obscura you can shake hands with your own reflection and switch faces with a friend. You could use cameras to spy on passerbys and then splat them onto a street!!!

 

My personal favorites were the kaleidoscope makers (on the screen) and the photo booths where you could make your face more manga, feminine, masculine, monkey-like, and so much more! I also like the mirror maze! Increidibly simple concepts that make a difficult maze. Also the “vortex” was fun because it felt like you were spinning but you actually weren’t! Very Fun!!!!!!!!

Wake-boarding and climbing the assault course at Fox Lake

The Wake boarding and  the “Foxfall” assault course, a thrilling experience! First we went on Foxfall the assault course, filled with moving obstacles and no railings. If you slipped, you fell into the water! At the end, (if you finished the course without falling in) there was a zipline!!!!!! After that we went wakeboarding! We were controlled by a start and stop zipline with a rope and a handle atached to it. When you got into the water it started slowly, picking up pace the better you were. I loved it!!!!!!

Pont du Gard

The Pont du Gard is a Roman Aqueduct build around 19 B.C. and the second tallest remaining roman structure after the Coliseum at 161 feet. At the Pont du Guard you can swim in the river or hike for miles, the possibilities are endless! The river is freezing cold but some people jump straight in.( Unlike some people I know!!!!!)

Chateau des Les Baux de Provence

beautiful views, very nice. It was kind of a tourist trap though because the village relies only on tourism…. a 4 star rating from me.

“You only live …

“You only live once but if you do it right ,once is enough.” “The only person you should try to be better than, is the person you were yesterday.” “If you believe in yourself anything is possible”

Creative Ice cream flavors

What are your favorite wacky flavors of ice cream? I found this one in France, it’s smurf ice cream ( Blueberry with smurf gummies.

The bridge of love in Paris ( Love in the form of padlocks)

In a city where it has known no bounds, love now has a weight limit. Shortly after 5 p.m. on Sunday, June 8, a railing of the Pont des Arts—a pedestrian bridge in Paris that spans the Seine River near the Louvre—buckled under the weight of thousands of padlocks. This idea has spread worldwide and brought down many bridges. A thoughtful but destructive gesture.
