Living it up L'Viv Style

So it is vacation time. It feels like I just came back from one. Wait, that is because I just did two weeks ago. This is vacation #3 and we are going to L' Viv and Poland. Today we arrived in L' Viv and the greatest thing happened! We ate at Three Broomsticks. We were sorted into our houses. It was epic! I love Harry Potter! The food was decent but the decor was better. And any restaurant that lets you play around is a great place.
We arrived via train and it was so weird. It was just one large compartment, no doors whatsoever. AWKWARD! I did make a new friend, Oksana. She is a sweetheart and we just chatted, and laughed, and she share her knowledge of L' Viv with us. And we talked about traveling the world. It was a pretty enjoyable night.
We spent the first few hours chilling at McDonalds because one of the girls fell off the train, hurt her wrist, and had to go to the hospital. She is fine. Every vacation we have taken, someone has gotten hurt. In Odessa, I sprained my ankle. On the big trip, someone hurt her knee. And here, there is a injured wrist. It's interesting how that works out. We can never get away injury free.
L' Viv is beautiful but I think that it would be prettier if we went during the summer where it is bright and sunny instead of a gloomy fall day. We were able to go inside a couple of cathedrals and look at the amazing architecture and paintings. I love the cathedrals in Europe. There are different from the ones in America...granted I have only been inside one cathedral in America...still, the buildings are breathtaking.
On our way to the bus station, we had to take a bus (irony??) The bus was jammed pack and uncomfortable. Thankfully, I stood next to a woman who was sitting. She must have seen how I struggled with my backpack because she offered to hold it on her lap. It was so sweet of her and I took her up on her offer. The more and more I am in this country, the more and more I find kind and helpful people. It is little things like this that makes my day and makes me love this country even more. I am truly blessed.
