Spain: The Trip

Tuesday, October 27th, 2009

9 days/8 nights
4 flights, 3 hotels and 4 cities
3 cameras and 3600+ photos later
I had a great time in Spain with my family but it was definitely a trip not a vacation. I now need a vacation from my trip. If you don’t know what the difference is, think Spain vs St. Thomas.
I haven’t even [...]

Mom and I decided to surprise Dad with a trip for his birthday. So after some research we decided to make it Spain since none of us had been yet. Open jaw into Barcelona for 3 days, puddle hopper flight to Granada to see the Alhambra for 1 day, and then off to Madrid for [...]

In Her Shoes

Wednesday, November 2nd, 2005

*Chiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiick flliiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiick* If you have any doubts..it’s a movie about 2 sisters, shoes and a long-lost grandmother.

Wednesday, August 17th, 2005

However this past fall, my co-workers were mesmerized by Kiefer Sutherland and all conversation swirled around the cliff-hanger of the week. I’m all for a good drama and brainless entertainment, [...]
