Well yes they do! And Pringles Tortilla Chips are awesome too. We picked some up at the store… actually they were in the basket before I could fully understand the taste sensation I was about to

Near our place in Milan we kept passing this spot that we couldn’t figure out.

Was it a restaurant? Was it an office?

At times it seemed to be both and maybe more, so we decided to check it out and

We knew we wanted to see Leonardo da Vinci’s The Last Supper while in Milan, Italy. But we also knew that you needed to get tickets in advance – sometimes weeks in advance! We didn’t plan far enough

I love window shopping! There are so many stores here in Milan that I enjoy walking past to see their window displays. They usually change them every day or so, too! They also put little signs next

We are really enjoying Milan, Italy! Here are some highlights of our visit so far!

We took a day trip to Salzburg, Austria. We walked around the shops and streets for a few hours and we didn’t take that many photos. It was fun to see the old town area and to walk across the Salzach

When we went out to the Salzkammergut and Tyrol regions of Austria we noticed a LOT of baby announcements. It was really cute – they usually included a wooden stork of some kind, the baby’s name, items

I’ve seen so many pictures of Hallstatt, Austria and I knew I wanted to visit it. It was only about an hour drive from our place in Weyregg am Attersee, Austria. The trick was – our place was up in the

Why are there no planes flying over us in Weyregg am Attersee, Austria? This is REALLY odd.

On of my most-used iPhone apps is Plane Finder. I love looking at what planes are above me and the app

Chris and I talked about a little getaway from Vienna. We knew we wanted to see the mountains near Salzburg and Innsbruck. Should we take a train? Or rent a car and wander? Should we stay in town with

When we came to Vienna from the United States, our dog James had to get a LOT of paperwork done. He needed a full health certificate filled out from our veterinarian in DC. And then we had to get that
