An older vlog from when we were in Greece. We ended up finding a very nice resort to stay at that night, and then moved to a villa in the secluded mountains where we rented atvs for 2 days and found 2 more cockroaches and 1 mysterious bug

We hiked the Acropolis on a day that was 90+ degrees fahrenheit. We walked through the two theaters and by all three structures at the top of the Acropolis Hill. This is a panorama from the Parthenon and then overlooking Athens.

We stayed at a friends house outside of Munich. Her dad does landscaping and had this awesome pond pool that we could swim in or even do belly flops at 6:00 in the morning.

At the Hofbraühaus of Munich. This place was packed the day we went and is even more during Oktoberfest. They served beers in .5 liter and 1 liter. The boys got the full liter and decided to chug it. Nick made it in under 2 minutes and Nate almost died trying to chug it.

Tram we took to the Eiffel Tower of Prague. It was extremely hot in there but we got first row seats!

Prague is cheap place to film in Europe, so they are filming here constantly. We walked by and took a tram by this set. They were dressed in old clothes, driving old cars, and we heard a fake gunshot.
