Helena's Europe photos, part II

This first group of photos is a collection of awesome shots Helena took in Venice. You can't go too wrong with such amazing subject matter, but I think Helena has a fabulous sense of composition!































Helena standing on the side of the (one of the?) largest bridge in Venice. She said it was incredibly hot that day.



Helena in the Austrian Alps. They rode a gondola style ski lift to the top where they ate lunch. She said the food was disgusting and they ended up feeding it to a dog that was wandering around!



A group photo in the Austrian Alps.



A group photo after the 'rock star' style concert! Can you find Helena?



The city of Salzburg in the background. They toured the home Mozart was born in, now a museum about him.



She thought the cobblestone streets were very cool.




She said Dachau was incredibly spiritual. During her travelogue to us, she kept saying 'that's another church... there's another castle... no, I can't remember what it was called... I took a picture of that 'cuz the tour guide said something important about it, but I can't remember.'




When it came time to describe Dachau to us, however, she was full of facts and information. I am very proud of her for that. Touristy facts are interesting if you can remember them, but she obviously has her heart in the right place to know what is truly important to remember!
