My Travel Stories

24 Hours in Prague

While I was in Germany visiting my family in October, we decided to make a day trip to Prague, Czech Republic! I have always wanted to explore this city as it looked so amazing in pictures. Now granite I didn't get to spend as much time there as I would have liked but we put in our steps in that one...Read more.

Christmas Cruise

This Christmas we gifted our boys a cruise. Instead of buying useless toys or things they just throw in the corner after two weeks, I thought it would be a cool idea to give them an experience instead. This was the best decision I made. We absolutely LOVED every minute of being away from home over...Read more.

Disney Cruise

We took a 4 day cruise on the Disney Dream. This was our family's first cruise and the ages my children were then, I am so glad we chose the Disney Cruise as our first. The kids and the parents had an ABSOLUTE blast. 

Discovery Cove-Orlando, Florida

Discovery Cove was one of the coolest experiences my family has had the privilege to enjoy! We were able to snorkel in a man made reef, swim with a dolphin, enjoyed lunch and the other pools that were offered. It was a full day of non stop fun!

Day Trip to Paris, France

While visiting family in Germany we took the train to Paris for the day. We packed in all the must see sights. I don't think I have ever walked that much in one day! 

Tamarindo, Costa Rica

The last part of our visit in Costa Rica was to Tamarindo and WOW. This was my family's favorite. Pictures do not do this country's beauty justice. We stayed at Tamarindo Diria Beach Resort & Spa in a Sunset View Oceanfront Junior Suite. This room was smaller than the room in La Fortuna but the views...Read more.
