Amman – November 9th 2017 One of the last days in Jordan we explored the city of Amman. We had the car rental but didn’t dare try to drive it into the city. Traffic was a whole new ballgame over there! We contemplated taking the bus but I was a little nervous about that and...

Petra – November 7th – 8th 2017 Petra! Petra is a historical and archaeological city in the south of Jordan. The city is famous for its rock-cut architecture. It took us 3 hours to drive to Petra from Madaba. Not too bad and the roads were pretty much in good condition with not too much...

Dead Sea – November 6th 2017 Jordan was a location that we added in after our travels started. A last minute decision and that meant even less planning than usual (not that we planned too much). We knew that we wanted to see the Dead Sea. We drove out of Madaba and surprisingly were able...

Madaba – November 5th 2017 Surprise!! We have arrived in Jordan. Leaving Europe was a big step. We had been in the European bubble for months and it was nice and a little nerve racking. Jordan in all honesty didn’t scream luxury and easy travel. It did grab me with it’s promise of adventure! We...

Santorini – October 27th – 30th 2017 We arrived in Santorini without any issues. Quick flight, crazy landing beside a mountain on an island in the middle of the sea, you know, the regular stuff. The manager of the apartment/hotel we stayed at picked us up and helped us settle in. Two things were noted:...

Dubrovnik – October 26th 2017 Our last day in Dubrovnik had come. We had one last thing we wanted to do, walk around the city walls. It was great exploring the city from above for a couple hours. After that it was time to catch the bus to the airport. It was sad actually. A...

Dubrovnik – October 24th & 25th 2017 Dubrovnik had so much to offer. It was quaint and old and charming and beautiful. It also has a cable car up the mountain to give you some breathtaking views of the town and the gorgeous Adriatic Sea below! There had been rain and wind the day prior...
