Off the Grid

We will be off the wifi grid for a bit meaning we will not be posting adventures again until Wednesday night at the earliest.
Day 11 — Roman Ruins

Another lazy morning, as the long days and heat are definitely wearing us down, but we also knew we had time to spare today with our adventure to Ostia Antica. This is a roman ruin city about an hour away from Rome, which meant we had to master public transportation here. Fortunately it was easier […]
Day 10 — When in Rome

Today was a slower moving day for us as we ended up sleeping in a little later than we probably should have, and we also enjoyed a couple of hours in the afternoon in our room taking shelter from the daily afternoon thunderstorm (Step Up was on, so all was not lost!) n Even so, […]
Day 9 — Another country down…

We arrived in Rome today via train, and I can already tell I’m gonna like this city better than Venice. It is definitely full of tourists, but it feels way more spacious and real. We decided to walk from the train station to our B&B which may or may not have been a mistake depending […]
Day 8: Venezia

To start the day off, I realized that I did not have my camera anymore. It’s a bit of a mystery as to what happened to it, but I suspect I either left it in the rental car or it was taken out of my side pocket on the way to our B&B in Venice. […]
Day 7 — Italy!

Today was a new adventure for us — we traveled from Munich to Italy by train. It was surprisingly easy even though the 7 hour train ride was so long (our flight was cancelled, so we had to go by train..). It’s crazy how easy it is to just get on a train – no […]
Day 6 – Oh the hiking…

Now that we have wifi – albeit, not great so I’m pretty sure we won’t be able to post any pictures :(, let’s talk about yesterday… Our last full day in Germany consisted of driving on the Romantic Road (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Romantic_Road) and stopping at the Neuschwanstein Castle. This is the castle that inspired Walt Disney’s Cinderella castle […]
Exhaustion beyond words….

Kevin officially wore me out today with our ridiculous amount of hiking, and since we are just getting back to the hotel still needing to pack to catch our train tomorrow, I will not be posting about the day. I’m hoping we have wifi on the train, and I’ll be able to post it first […]
Day 5 — Inside the Walled City

Today we spent the day exploring inside the walled city of Rothenberg ob der Tauber. Our first stop was to walk along the wall above the city which was quite picturesque and where we made our first friends. As we were walking past, a German couple asked us to take their picture. They were celebrating […]
