They look like pictures but they move
We decided to take a day trip to Aix-en-Provence. It is a short train ride from Marseille. I’d heard of Aix-en-Provence because it is a popular city for students at FSU and UF (and other schools in the US) for studying abroad. I didn’t study any foreign languages at UF but I wish I would…
We are having fun learning all about apples in Canada!
I’ve been on three Delta flights recently and when I play a movie, this commercial always plays first. It is narrated by Viola Davis and it is a beautiful reminder of why we travel the world. Here is what the Viola Davis says in the commercial: When we’re born, we are more alike than we…
When Chris started working at the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum in Washington, DC, we asked our former neighbor Helga if she would be interested in sharing her story. I am so glad Helga agreed to be interviewed. Helga had told me a few things in person and I had watched videos of presentations she…
We were in Pacific City, Oregon and we had never heard of these Dory Boats. Apparently the Dory Boat history here in Pacific City is over 100 years old! The flat bottomed Dory boats are launched right from the beach into the sea. They fish for salmon, crab, tuna and rock fish. Then when the…
When James was sick this Spring, I loved reading his prayers out loud to him while he was in the ICU. It really helped me to know how much James was loved by total strangers. People we only know from the internet. These prayers helped us get through a very rough three weeks and I…
I love Taylor Swift. Her music is just upbeat and great for singing along in the car. I also really enjoy her music videos. So many of them are really done well! And I love the Easter Eggs she plants in her videos and on her Instagram. Taylor hides little clues for things we don’t…
I really enjoy the YouTube channel Wendover Productions. We love traveling all over Europe by train. But the thing is, cities in Europe are SO much closer to each other (for the most part). Here in the US we sometimes drive for 4 hours and hardly pass a gas station. We sometimes laugh and say,…
Check out our amazing Airbnb in Antibes, France. Our apartment was actually closer to Juan-Les-Pins. This was one of the most comfortable Airbnbs we have stayed at and we will definitely be back one day! And it is a short walk to the beach!
James is always in bed before us. I like going in and having a few cuddles with him and giving him a pre-sleep Poodle massage!
Montrose Park is our favorite park in Washington, DC. We can easily walk to it from our house in Georgetown. James loves playing fetch in the big field and we love walking down to Rock Creek.
I am cleaning out my hard drive and finding old videos that I never edited or posted here on YouTube. One is this video of the first muzzle we tried with James. We knew we would need a muzzle for James when we moved to Europe. Some countries require it on public transportation (Austria and…
Check out this crazy water we found in France – it is called Happy Time Water. Does it make you happy? Watch our silly video to find out!
Join us on a little tour of our cute little Airbnb in Villefranche-sur-Mer, France. The apartment is small but the walk to town and the beaches is just a few minutes!
Porto Venere, Italy is a beautiful town near Cinque Terre. The narrow pedestrian streets remind me a lot of Venice except there are a lot more stairs!
We love walking all of the little paths around Portofino. We even found our castle – Castello Brown!
The marina is just a few minutes from our Airbnb in La Spezia, Italy. We love walking over the pedestrian bridge, looking at the water and checking out all of the boats.
Today we were walking around the area behind our Airbnb and we found the Castello Di San Giorgio. We are really enjoying La Spezia – it is one of our favorite Italian cities!
Join us on a tour of our Airbnb in La Spezia, Italy! La Spezia was one of our favorite Italian towns and we will definitely be going back to this Airbnb in the future. Since we are on a long-term travel adventure, we prefer to stay at apartments instead of hotels while we travel. If…
We are on a train from Florence, Italy to La Spezia, Italy. We knew the train would be going past Pisa and we were hoping we could see the Leaning Tower of Pisa. Did you think we get to see the Leaning Tower of Pisa from our train? Watch this video to find out!
