EUROPE!!
Well, were back from Europe and boy was it a whirlwind trip! We had an amazing time in each city and loved them all for different reasons. Darren and I both agreed that Monterosso in Cinque Terre, Italy was our favorite stop. We were lucky enough to spend 1.5 days in that small slice of heaven! Cinque Terre is made up of 5 tiny and quiet towns on the Mediterrean Coast in Northeast Italy. The food and wine were amazing and it was such a relaxing place amidst the crazy sightseeing schedule we had in London, Paris, Barcelona, Venice, Florence and Rome. One of the other highlights of the trip, at least for me, was going to the Eiffel Tower! It's so surreal walking up to it and then taking the shaky elevator all the way to the top. It was much bigger than I imagined it would be. The London Eye was another really neat experience -as well as waling past Big Ben and Parliament. Barcelona, definitely had an energy about it and I wish we would've had more time there. We spent the most time in Italy, and although some of the people were rude, we had a wonderful time. Venice was just as you'd picture it to be from pictures and movies you've seen. Lots of shops and restaurants and gelato stands! Were splurged for a gondola ride and that was really great. It was the day we were without our luggage so it was nice to be off our feet and resting even though it was only 35 minutes. Most of you have probably already seen the 200 plus photos I sent out, so I have just attached a few of my favorites.
