We made it to London safely! It was great to not have to wake up and feel rushed to catch our flight this morning though (we didn’t fly out until 215p). As with all of our other travel on this trip, the flight was great and we had no problems. And since the London Underground […]

I’d like to start this post by saying thank you to those readers of my blog who crossed their fingers for good weather for us today. It helped! I’d also like to shame those people who didn’t cross their fingers because we definitely still got rained on. :p Despite that, today was still a great […]

Well, I think we made the most of our only full day in Florence! We had the day pretty well mapped out because we knew we were going to be going to a few different places in different areas of the city. Okay, so we may have also planned around the place we wanted to […]

Contrary to the last two “first days” we’ve had, our first day in Florence involved us going out and doing/seeing quite a bit! Of course, that’s largely because we really only have today and tomorrow to see the city due to a pre-planned day trip on Sunday (more on that later), so we wanted to […]

We made it safely to Florence today! It required us to get up at 6a (not fun when you’re on vacation), which we did and successfully made it to the airport in plenty of time for our flight. Two short hours later, we were here! We opted to take a taxi to get to our […]

Our final full day in Spain was a great one! We had pre-planned a day trip to Toledo several months ago and today was the day for it. It involved a bit of an early start, but we got there with no problems – hooray! I’m very glad we did this trip because it was […]

Another great day of this trip has come and (almost) gone. It’s kind of crazy to realize that this amazing trip is already half-over! But that’s okay because we still have a week-and-a-half left to enjoy. 🙂 We started our day a bit later than normal today because we (okay, mostly me) were organizing/editing/posting pictures […]

After a lackluster first day in Madrid, it was great to get out and experience some of the city today! It feels very much like a city with compact buildings and lots of graffiti (far more than Paris, which is almost twice as big), which could lead to it feeling unsafe, but I don’t get […]

Okay, I thought that our first day in Paris was pretty low-key, but our first day in Madrid was even quieter. Nothing wrong with that though! We made it here safe and sound – the flight from Paris was quick and painless and it was easy to get to our apartment via the Metro. I […]

Our bags are packed and checked in and we’re sitting at our gate at Charles de Gaulle airport in Paris. I guess that means we’re flying to Madrid! Seems like we’re leaving at just the right time – it’s raining now! The weather for Madrid looks really good though, so we’re definitely looking forward to […]
