For fear that you may think I am one-dimensional and only talk about my house, I’m going to switch gears a bit today {and for the whole week for that matter}. We have been very blessed in our lives to have the opportunity to travel to some pretty incredible places. Traveling is one of our strongest passions, and although we get to travel a lot for work, we also set goals to travel on our own time as well.
We’re on a new adventure this week, but I thought I would bring back some trips of the past. When I switched blog services and websites, I opted to remove a lot of personal information – including a lot of our travels. So, I plan to bring back some of the posts with more of the personal information removed. Hopefully someone out there finds it interesting/helpful/inspiring. I know prior to leaving on any trips I read about other’s adventures {pros and cons} to ensure our trip can be mostly full of ‘pros’.
I’m starting with our favorite trip of all time: a Western Mediterranean cruise we took in July 2010 for our fifth anniversary. I will feature a new stop on our Mediterranean cruise each day this week. Given that I took 2,104 photos on this trip alone, hopefully, there is something for everyone.
On this trip, we spent three days in Barcelona {Spain}, a day at sea, Naples {Italy}, Civatevecchia {Italy}, Livorno {Italy}, Villefranche {France}, Provence {France} and then ended back in Barcelona.
And now, my travel journal resurrected {with some editing/cutting of photos}. I will focus on day one in Barcelona today and then the other days there and each of the other ports each day this coming week.
Barcelona, Spain Day 1 Highlights:
- Exploring Las Ramblas
- Cafe con leche
- Estrella with limon Fanta
- Pizza at Rossini in Placa Reial
- Taking in all the beautiful architecture Europe has to offer
