Mike and I just got back from a magical two weeks in Europe. We moved fast and were able to see London, Paris, Barcelona, Venice, Florence, Pompeii, Rome and many towns on the Amalfi coast of Italy including the tiny island Capri. We’ve decided January is the perfect time to travel because there are no lines and cheap airfare! We also decided that when Mike e-commutes to work, and there isn’t children’s schooling to worry about we are moving to the Amalfi coast so Mike can fish for dinner and I can have a terraced garden of orange and lemon groves, basil, parsley, tomatoes (all the Italian essentials) and ride my Vespa into town for anything else we might need. A real shout-out to our parents who took turns watching Ava so we could enjoy ourselves abroad. Thank you so much! So the pics from top to bottom: Mike and I in a London phon booth (I spent many hours in one of those during our dating days), enjoying the ambiance of the Eiffel Tower, checking our view of the Duomo from Piazzale Michaelangelo in Florence, wandering the streets of Venice, having a romantic moment in a covered gazebo near Marie Antoinette's estate in Versaille, enjoying a private boat tour from a new-found Caprician friend, one of the many beautiful coastlines on the Amalfi Coast, and exploring the ruins of Pompeii.
