I slept so well last night. The bed was nice, but the temperature was just right! It was a beautiful night so we slept with the windows open instead of the AC. We went to breakfast and it was buffet style again. It was set up very nicely and had lots to choose from. It... Continue Reading →
Bom Bidi Bom Jesus
Our Porto hotel has by far been our favorite. It was very nice, excellent customer service and we LOVED the location. I mean, in reality it was Chris and his research into the hotels that allowed us to have such great stays. We had a patio off our room, robes, a great bathroom - it... Continue Reading →
When everything works out!
This morning we got up and enjoyed some breakfast - but not before being very much out of it because of a one hour time change between Portugal and Gibraltar. For some reason that really threw off our bodies clocks. Anyway, after breakfast I packed my stuff up and Chris and I took his suitcase... Continue Reading →
From Lisbon to Faro
Today we left Lisbon, but not before checking out the last two things on our to do list: the oldest bookshop in the world and the Cathedral (Se Cathedral). We first headed to the bookstore that opened at 9am. Google told us it would take about 10 minutes, so we went walking. Of course, its... Continue Reading →
Don’t Juneau? July 4, 2019

Last day in Cinque Terre
Today is my last day here, and I just didn't know what to do. I laid in bed until about 9, then got up and people watched from my window until about 10. Then I got ready, bought a banana and a yogurt and headed out to another town. I caught the train to the... Continue Reading →
Let’s go for a hike
Well first I must fill you in last night. After the beach, I ran into Pip. Pip checked in with me, and is in another room. She invited me out for a drink with her and her roommates, so I decided to go. We went to the same place I went to lunch at. We... Continue Reading →

I arrived at my destination 30 minutes late, and caught the next local train to my final... Continue Reading →
Just go chasing waterfalls
Wow. I am exhausted writing this tonight. We hit the road in an attempt to get to Hofn. Our first goal was to get some Petrol. About 20 minutes into the drive, we found the petrol station - however, it was broken!! The owner came out to try and help and basically in his body... Continue Reading →
