This morning William and I boarded the Bernina Express on the UNESCO World Heritage Tour to see the Swiss Alps.  We started our trip at Chur, Switzerland which lies just inside the northern border of Switzerland and rode all the way into northern Italy.  We were not sure how easily we could share this adventure…

Our GPS showed a 5 hour drive from Stuttgart Germany to Chur Switzerland.  We were so excited to begin our drive even though it took us twice as long as we thought it would.  We drove into Austria first after leaving Germany and then finally into Switzerland.  The very first thing that caught our attention…

We are in Germany now with our family.  It sounds quite simple but what you must realize to make this return trip from Greece to Germany was a real undertaking.  Our flight leaving Santorini to Athens required us to meet our taxi driver at 6:00 AM yesterday morning.  Then we had a 6 hour layover…

Santorini is a must visit island when you get to travel in Greece.  William and I knew we would be ready for some sun and relaxation at the end of European Travels so we planned this stop at the end of our vacation.    We were looking forward to beautiful sunsets, blue and white houses,…

We spent the day today driving back to Athens for our flight to Santorini tomorrow morning.  On the way we stopped at  the Ancient City Corinth and the Corinth Canal. It was quite a humbling experience to walk in the city where the Apostle Paul preached to the Corinthians.   During the first centurary AD…

We started our morning with breakfast with Diane just outside the Yurt where we stayed last night.  It felt so right sleeping in the round again!   I asked Diane if there was anything that I could help with and she asked me to carry some items out to the table.  I noticed that there…

This morning we took the road less traveled and went to Kalamata on the old road over Taygetus Mountain.  It was a pretty wild ride but well worth the adventure.  We drove into the clouds on the curviest road I have ever seen.  In a way, it reminded me of driving through the Smoky Mountains…

For the last few days we have been traveling around the Greek Peninsula called the Pelopense which lies to the south of Mainland Greece.  There are many ancient archaeological sites here and we have tried to hit the top ones.  I previously posted the area of Nafopli but since they are a part of Pelopense…

William and I watched a whole lot of Rick Steve’s videos before starting out on our travels to Europe and there was one place we saw that captivated my heart.  It was a theatre where the acoustics were so good you could hear the voices from the stage even at the very top.  The only…

It is impossible to share everything that is happening on this trip.   I try and get the important stuff up first, like William and his love for the art, major sites, and a few stories that are notable.  I must share with you our love of Greek Cuisine.  Now don’t get me wrong because…
