Germany and its cities



Cologne
Germany is a very nice place to be when you want to have a good vacation.This is the city of Cologne. Some things you would probably want to know is that their language is German. Then their government is ran by three parts: Bundesversammlung or the federal convention is an institution of consisting of the members of the Bundestag and an equal amount of state delegates.
The second highest government in the German order of precedence is the Bundestagspräsident elected by the Bundestag and responsible for overseeing the daily sessions of body.
The third  place of government and the head of government is the Chancellor. He is appointed to the Bundestpräsidesident after being elected by the Bundestag. Although the Chancellor can be removed by the constructive vote of no confidence by the bundestag. The constructive implies that the Bundestag simultaneously has to select a successor.
The next thing i would have to explain about Germany is based on projections in 2008 about 34.1% of Germans have no registered religion denomination. According to a poll 45% believe in god, a quarter believe in Jesus Christ. Also christianity is the biggest religion in Germany and only about 49.4 million adrehents of which 24.5 million are protestants. Only 24.9 million are catholic from 2008 and about the second largest region is islam which consists of 3.8 million to 4.3 million adrehents followed by hinduism and judaism.
Germany's currency is a very simple coin system. Instead of them using dollars they use coins like dollars and cents. Unlike our american money they use euro which is an E marked with a line down it. There are very many different kinds of coins. Bronze coins, silver coins and gold silver coins. The bronzes are worth 1,2 and 5 cents (euro) and the gold coins are worth 10, 20, 50 cents (euro) and for the silver and gold coins they are worth 1$ or 2$ (euro). I have been in Germany for 1 day and already enjoying the cinema, music, media, sports, cuisine and their lovely society. I enjoyed many of the plays and operas they put on and their sports are so similar to our sports. And their cuisine style is as fancy as their geographical monuments such as the Great Pyramid monument.

My second amazing stop in Deutschland(Germany)

 
This is the city of Stuttgart. There are many treasures here I have experienced here. The picture above is one of the many sights that you can see in Stuttgart.
   
 
            This is the night view of the city. If you thought the picture from before, you should really enjoy this sight. I took this picture on the night of Feb. 14 2011. This is all you need to make your stay in
Germany.

            With this blog insert I will include the countries flag and map. I hope you will enjoy the rest of my blog. See you later.


My last stop in Germany



This is Dahn. My last stop in Germany. Up above you will see the basic landscape of the town. And at the bottom the flag.
                                                                                

                      I will explain everything you would like to know and at the best I can to wrap up my adventure in Germany. Germany's cities, such as Dahn are located in the most isolated areas, such as forests, mountains and rivers. Dahn on the other hand is surrounded by the is surrounded by mountains AND forests. As you can see Dahn isn't much to offer, but the saying "don't judge a book by it's cover" applies here too. I had had a very nice stay and i'm sure you would have to. Most of the countries also have their own cool flag. I will include some down below. It's been nice chatting with you. Good-bye germany hello Cyprus.

Cyprus, a new start!


Welcome to Cyprus. I am amazed on how well they do over here. This sight is what you might call New York in Europe! HaHaHa
I will be showing you how fun it can be to hang in Cyprus and how I can show you the differences and similarities. So with this, I will include, a map, flag, and living throughout the day. So next thing I should tell you is how similiar their transportation is. Just like us they use, cars, planes, trains, boats and not to mention trams.

Now that I have introduced yo to the transportation, how about the money use. Their money use is also very quite similair to ours. They use dollar bills but I am not sure of coins yet.
These are the samples of money that I have seen around Europe and this form of money is also refered to as Euro. I am starting to think that they named Euro from Europe.

Add caption

This is the country flag. It looks like they are having their own street parade. They are probably celebrating accomplishments that happened in the past. Just note that the front flag (red and white) is their flag the other one is the Flag of Greece. (Note this Greece blog people, use this flag if you're looking for one). 
Up above is the map of cyprus. I will list the two citites down below and when you find them, comment the coordinates and location on the island. Are you ready, because here they are: Davlos and Pelendria.
I wil not be including the location of the cities in my next two blogs so 
GOOD LUCK or in Czech: HODNĚ

Welcome to Davlos


 Welcome to Davlos. It is a very great place to visit so enjoy the time you have there. As you can see it has a mountanous landscape and lots of forests. There are a little bit of out of date houses, but that doesn't mean that you don't have the best time. I have strolled gracefully through the streets of Davlos and have realized how great it is to smell the sea air. By the way, that was your only clue!
So on my daily afternoon stroll I happened to bump into my old pal Cole. It looks like he was working on his blog. You should go and check it put sometime. Its awesome! He's traveling to his next town Belarus. He just though it would be cool to visit places from where he's going, to Belarus. I think I might just be able to visit there too. this city can be found in more than one way a good time. Enjoy swiming, walking the beach, snorkling and forest hiking.
I know what you're thinking, where are we going to stay. Well there is a lovely hotel withe people waiting to make you feel at home.
Well that's enough for this blog. Remember to comment the location of Davlos. BYE

Pelendria, here I come

Hello and welcome to Pelendria. As you can see their craft is fairly interesting. Most of these houses is what you might see down in Mexico. Now unlike the other cities Pelendria is a village instead of a town.
Again they have the same landscape of Davlos. Mountainous, and forested. They have had many interesting sights. There is how far back their technology goes. It is very interesting how you can see old technology, and then look at todays and realize, how far we have come since the 1950's. I can just stand on a mountain and gave at all the different towns around, and I can barely see the sea. Oops another hint that's it from me. No more hints because today, unfortunately is my last day in Cyprus.
I try to make the best as I stay in each city and soak in all the breath taking moments that pass by. This is what you should do on vacation. Really admire what other places besides your home has to offer.
I hope you have enjoyed my blog from Cyprus.
Off to Czech or IN Czech: Vzhůru do České

Welcome to Czech blog viewers :)


This is a remarkable view, of Czech. They have really cool sights and the same culture and scenery as we do in America! The first thing I should tell you is that there religion is in many different pieces . So to start, 59% is agnostics, atheist and irreligion, while 26.8% is roman catholic and with 2.5% is protestant.
Next I should tell you about currency.
Korun Back.jpg
This is known as a Czech Koruna. It is like a basic american dollar just for Czech. When 2012 arrived they were supposed to adopt the euro coin but the government turned it down in 2007.
Next is their langauge, flag, and map, thus ending the countries introduction. Their basic language for 12 million people is West slavic language, this language is known to us by Bohemian. Czech can also be related with Slovak, Polish and Sorbian.
Now to end the blog I will include map and flag. See ya.

Welcome to Opava

Hello and welcome to Opava. This is where you will be staying to read my blog. As you can see Opava is already a sight to see. If you think this is a good picture you should be seeing what I am now. Many friendly people to meet. Only problem is some don't even speak english! Uhoh should have booked up on the Czech language more. oh and another problem, the signs are not in english either. Guess I am going to need a translator. Oh well I am going to have to get back to you on that. I will try and have the most wonderful time here but, problem with the signs again. I just can't seem to get the signs right. When I think this is a restaurant it is actually an antique store. Up above is one of the many geographical interests here in Opava. You should come and see this place at night time. Okay it's time for me to go. Which is the hotel? Which is the Restaurant. Uhhh, it's going to be a long day.
By the way here's the flag.

Farewell Czech and all of Europe

1. Get myself a translator check.
Oh hello, as you can see, I got myself a translator. Yeah I know, why didn't he start with a picture of the city. Well my stupid camera will not download anymore. All it will do is take the picture. So how did I get the flag picture. Well that is an easy one, THE INTERNET. All I like the internet for is blogging with you guys.
Now I have spent to much time complaining I have had the greatest time in Czech ever since I got myself a translator. I can finally trus tmyself to walk into the right place. Not only did he translate and tell me where what is, he even taught me Czech. Oh he's handing me the bill?! Oh my gosh, it's 20,000 euro. I guess that's how these guys earn a living. Oh good news, someone just told me 20,000 euro= 25 dollars. That would have been a mess. But the lesson from me to you is going to have to end because i'm coming home tomorrow. I hope to see you guys there.
