Day 4: The Black Forest
Today brought us back to Germany – which means the Autoban – which means I did some fast driving this time. Not that we are keeping track, but faster than Kevin =) Our goal today was to visit the Lichtenstein Castle, hike through the Black Forest and get a sneak peak of Rothenburg. Success on […]
Day 3 — Have you ever met a monkey?
We had a bit of a late start today as we were quite exhausted from our very, very long day yesterday, but we had plenty to keep us busy. To start the day off right, Miss Graceful fell on her butt walking down the stairs of our hotel, and ended up as a turtle on […]
Day 2 — Pictures =)
Now that we finally have decent internet, we can post more pictures! Caption: The beautiful Rhine River (Germany) Caption: This is the road we (as in Kevin) drove to get down to the Rhine. Very windy and appears to be a one way…wrong. (Germany) Caption: Eltz Castle – A bit of a hike but worth it. […]
Home Sweet Home
We made it home last night and enjoyed sleeping in our own bed! Still a little jet legged today, but hopefuly we will be good for work tomorrow morning. Now would be the time for me to share how many miles we walked since I bought this really cool Jawbone Up bracelet that tracks all […]
Unplanned / "Restful" Day
Today was an extra day that we didn’t really have anything in particular planned except that we would continue to explore Edinburgh. What we didn’t anticipate is we didn’t really have much left to do (that we wanted to do, anyways)… Leading us to having a very unplanned and somewhat restful day. It was nice […]
Fieldtrip to ENGLAND!
To keep myself sane, and my journal organized, this is today’s post and the previous post is meant for yesterday’s adventures…. Today was a slow start as we were still dragging from the Tattoo yesterday, but we managed to make it to Alnwick Castle by noon which just so happens to be in ENGLAND. That […]
The Tattoo!!!!!
As I said in the last post, we didn’t get home until after midnight yesterday and were just too exhausted to even think about blogging. But it was well worth it! It was a very long day starting in Edinburgh at 9am. Our B&B is about a mile from town centre, but it is completely […]
What a Day!
It is past midnight here, and we are just getting home from being in Edinburgh since 9am. We are too exhausted to even look through pictures tonight. I’ll see what I can do about doing another post in the morning =) Tonight was our main attraction and the entire reason we planned a trip to […]
Hoot Hoot
In the early stages of planning our trip, I stumbled upon a falconry that allowed you to handle birds of prey (falcons, hawks, wood eagle, ravens and owls). I knew we had to visit and so I booked an owl experience for Kevin and I. And what an experience it was! It just so happened […]
