Our next stop on our journey was Livorno, Italy.  Usually people head out to Florence from here, but since we had already been there we decided to rent a car and check out a town called Lucca and then go to Pisa. Lucca is famous for its intact Renaissance-era city walls, that were built in [...]

The cruise ship actually docked in Civitavecchia, Italy which is the port located about an hour from Rome.  We decided we would wing it here and somehow make it to Rome. Once off the ship, we missed the sign for the shuttle to take us outside of the port. (Mistake #1) So we walked and [...]

On August 11th at 4:35pm, Jeremy’s laptop named Mac passed away. We tried everything we could to resesitate him, but the hard drive stopped pumping. Mac brought us all a ton of joy during his lifetime.  He was always there for us when we needed to speak and was always willing to look through our pictures.
Needless [...]

After an incredible stop in Santorini, Greece, we were a little worried everything else would not be able to live up to the beauty that Santorini had. Well we were pleasantly surprised by the beauty of the Amalfi Coast. Once the ship was in port we hired a driver named Antonio for the day and [...]

Sit back and relax, here are our video highlights from our stop in Santorini, Greece. Hope you enjoy!

See you in Italy!

Santorini
78.8 °F

There are a bunch of words that can accurately describe Santorini, Greece. A few of them would be magnificent, breathtaking, gorgeous,  picturesque and stunning. By now you should have a good idea of how amazing this place is so we will do our best to show you with a bunch of pictures. Once we docked, [...]

Grab your popcorn and your 3D glasses and get ready to enjoy our video highlights from Turkey in 3D. Well not exactly 3D but someday it will be. Here is a quick video with some highlights from our first stop.

Istanbul
87.8 °F

After a long night of flying, we finally made it to Istanbul, Turkey. After checking into the hotel we only had one thing left to do… Sleep right through our dinner reservation and continue sleeping for the next 12 hours. The long flight took its toll on us and this was the only way to [...]

As you know, we recently stayed in a cabin for a week in North Carolina and really enjoyed it. So we knew our next vacation would have to include a cabin to call home. Luckily for us, Crystal Cruise lines happens to have “cabin” accommodations. Jeremy is giving up the bicycle for this trip and [...]

As some of you know, about 6 months ago, Jeremy decided to register for one of the toughest one day bike races in the United States. The race is located near Boone, North Carolina. So Lauren and Jeremy packed up the SUV and headed to North Carolina for the week.  Lauren had her goal – [...]

Here is a short video from our stop in Koh Samui, Thailand. We did our best to share our experiences through our words, pictures and videos of our trip throughout Thailand but we are sure you can’t fully grasp what an amazing place Thailand is. Thai people are some of the nicest and most hospitable [...]

After our last stop in Chiang Mai, it was time for some good old relaxation, which is why we chose Koh Samui as our last stop. Koh Samui is one of the of the islands off the east side of Thailand which is known for its beaches and warm weather.  We had 4 nights and [...]

Chiang Mai
73.4 °F

As much as we didn’t want to leave Chiang Rai, it was time to head out and head for Chiang Mai. A few observations we have had so far regarding Thailand.
1. Thai people are super nice, they always have smiles.
2. Nobody shakes hands
3. Thai people greet by lifting the hands which join fingers to fingers,bending [...]

As you know we stayed in some “tents” while staying in Chiang Rai. You should have caught a glimpse of the place in some of the previous blog posts. Since the place had us in awe the entire time, we figured it was worth making a short video to show you around. Between the elephants, [...]

As you know, we conquered Bangkok. So it was time to try something a bit more adventurous, so Chiang Rai came to mind. Rather than staying in your typical hotel, we figured we would rough it and stay in a tent. I know you’re asking, how could Jeremy make Lauren stay in a tent on [...]

We had way too much good footage for just one video from Chiang Rai so we decided to send you another.

More good stuff coming soon….Don’t forget to leave us some comments!
