I’ll be honest right now, 24 hours was not enough time for us to explore Santorini as much as we wanted to! But, we were also visiting the island on a cruise so we didn’t have much say in how much time we had there! Rick and I are already talking about a return trip
We’ve posted on the blog before about how to spend a day in Venice, but this time we’re recapping what we actually did with a day in Venice when we were there at the end of June! From a gondola ride to a food and wine tour, we tried to have the right blend of
We were pretty excited to go to Athens on our recent cruise in Europe! Though we only had a day in the city, which really ended up being only a half day with the transportation back to the cruise, I’m still happy we saw at least one of the major sites on our sightseeing tour

I know highlighting Germany as a destination on our travel bucket list seems odd since I’ve written about Germany before – but we have not been there as a couple! I really enjoyed my time in Germany and I know Rick really wants to go there as soon as we can. Honestly, if we hadn’t
Though it doesn’t seem possible that summer is coming to an end I suppose it’s true as we’ve celebrated the holiday that traditionally marks this time of year: Labor Day. For Labor Day this year, Rick and I opted for something a little closer to home yet still across the border and so that’s how
