Gearing up for the trip of a lifetime!



We are getting more and more excited each day about our 3 week trip to Europe this summer!!  I thought I would start this blog by showing a map of our travel plans.  


We are truly covering a great deal of territory in only 3 weeks.  Here is a list of our planned destinations:


1. London, England - Very excited to visit the place I called home for a semester of college.  It has been a very long 12 years since I have had a chance to go back.


2. Paris, France - We can't miss the Eiffel Tower and authentic Parisian Cuisine.


3. Sankt Leon-Rot, Germany - South of Heidelberg & Mannheim....SO excited to visit Nikki!!!


4. Geneva, Switzerland - Nearest city to the Tour de France stop in Bellegarde-sur-Valserine, France (Stage 10).  And, we are going to check out CERN...think physics meets best selling novel.


5. Milan, Italy - Italian city that I have not yet visited and it is near Cremona, Italy.  Can't visit Italy without checking out the home town of the world's most famous violin makers!!


6. Dublin, Ireland - Can NOT wait to visit the most friendly city in all of Europe!!  I KNOW that I will have to make a more extensive trip here in the future, but this will give us a taste.  Of course, I have to see the Cliffs of Moher.  I can't go to Ireland and NOT see one of the most beautiful landscapes on earth.


We are looking forward to experiencing new cultures and seeing many fantastic landmarks!!

  3. Trying to do this without setting up a profile which seems like a big pain in the but. Michelle and Charlotte are getting their nails done together right after they have a lunch date with one of Michelle's friends.
