How I did it: I have wanted to go to London my entire life. Finally, my mother, sister and I booked a trip there two summers ago. We flew British Air, which was perfect, and landed at Heathrow Airport. Our hotel was close to Oxford street, which was fantastic shopping! Went on the London Eye, saw the changing of the guard...

How I did it: My mother, sister and I lost our dog, Tigger, to old age in August of 2008. Then in March 2009, we began to look for a new puppy to take in. It was super frustrating to look at all the adoption websites, so many of them had high adoption fees. Or the dog we wanted would be bought...After looking online and talking to the local dog groomer, we found an adorable puppy through Jenny's Hope Rescue in Rhode Island. Read how I did it…
How I did it: Well, my mother, sister and I stayed in London for 1 week (which I actually preferred) and then took the Eurostar train to Paris. We chose to go a few days after school got out for the summer. It was our first time in Europe, and all I can say is to go more on instinct. DO NOT plan every waking moment of your trip! That is what the tour guides will suggest, but take time to wander around and get to know the city on your own. Read how I did it…
