We Plan to Keep You Updated!

Update April 10th, 2015
Clark and I are getting ready for our second Europe trip! I plan to use this same blog to keep you all updated. So the old posts from our 2011 trip are still on here, but as I add photos and stories from our new trip those will appear at the top of the web page. This trip itinerary: Rome, Italy; Venice, Italy; Munich, Germany; Lucern, Switzerland; and Paris, France.



July 18th 11:15pm
Clark and I are leaving tomorrow morning (flight takes off from LAX at 11:30) for Europe until August 4th, 2011. We will be visiting Dublin, Ireland; London, England; Brussels, Belgium; Amsterdam, Netherlands; and Prague, Czech Republic. We only have a few days at each location and we are sleeping in hostels, but we plan to see, do, and taste so much! We will be trying to post pictures and stories as we go so you can share in our memories as a newly engaged couple!!!

Venice!

The beautiful canals of Venice!
This stop was for sure a favorite of mine! I loved the streets of water! The first thing we did in Venice was go to the only square in town and go all the wy to the top of the clock tower to get great views of the city-





A canal view- 

 After exploring s bit we had some great pasta, pizza ands wine!

We found Rialto Bridge


 Some gelati of course!


This is our place- we had the top floor of the yellow building.

Another night of drinks and dinner. These are Spritz. Which is a typical Italian drink (people were drinking this mix of a flavored liquor, white wine and soda at like 10 am) It is pretty bitter!
 And spaghetti!


 And I believe this is the church of San Giorgi Maggiore


We went to their fish and vegetables market- the Rialto Market

Another amazing feat of architecture and art- the entrance to San Giovanni Evangelista. This is a charitable institute now after the renaissance.



Delicious baked goods from a small shop. We also had bread from a bakery and cheese from a deli that afternoon.

These are raised pathways to walk when the city floods.


 It rained the last morning of the days there. But just a sprinkle! No worries of flooding :)

 Goodbye Venice!
