The general category for all of Jeff & Jenn’s travel adventures around the world.
Wow we did a LOT today. Woke up before the sun (easy to do!), ate breakfast and made the 2.5 hour, icy, snowy drive to Gullfoss (The Golden Waterfall). It was freezing cold out there and of course I slipped and fell on some hard ice, but it was worth…
Briefly seen on an episode of The Bachelor years ago, the Blue Lagoon was a must visit destination for this trip. We don’t have many plans while we were here but I am glad we made this one of them, We started the morning about 7am local time with breakfast at…
Just a few shots from the OC and Seattle Airport and IcelandAir flight Saturday/Sunday that we didn’t post before. I enjoyed all of the translations to Icelandic on board and the informational videos about the country.
After having a tricky time getting our rental car after being a given a key that only opened the trunk, our next day… err… night… um… afternoon… began when Jenn and I woke up after nap at about 3:00pm local time. The downtown of Reykjavik is a nice small town,…
Our journey has begun. We are currently in Seattle waiting for our 10 hour flight to Iceland to board. This morning we were so happy to get to the airport we waited outside the condo hoping each car pulling into the complex was the cab. The flight left a little…
We are sitting at the Miami airport now, waiting for some charge stations to open up. This morning was fun filled – woke up at 7am to catch the 7:07 sunrise. After sleeping a bit more we went down for a yummy breakfast buffet complete with a huge omelet to…
Today was nice. Spent a lot of time in the car on the way to Miami Beach today. It was good to kind of take a break but I am glad we got into Miami Beach in time to have some fun. We walked about 3 miles down to the…
Today was a blast! We started with our quick pool refresher course and after lunch went out on the boat to two awesome dives where I played the rebel and took my waterproof to 10 feet camera down to 30 feet. Glad I did, too! We got some fun shots….
Thursday we drove from Naples all the way through the Keys to the southern most US city of Key West. Yet another gorgeous sunset and some lightning to end our evening after exploring the town and getting completely DRENCHED in a sudden (shortlived) downpour. We literally just said “screw it,…
While Jeff was at his party, I was lucky enough to see a beautiful sunset. Passersby thought it would be nothing special as the clouds were dense near the ocean. Sure enough, past about 6:45pm, I didn’t see the big ball of fire, but after it set, not only did…
We really lucked out Monday night with our plan to go to the beach side restaurant here at the Ritz for sunset. It was cloudy enough to make things interesting but the horizon was absolutely clear. Last night, however, there was a thunderstorm prior to sunset and it was kind…
Here for Jeff’s business conference – luckily we have been able to have some fun as well. Tomorrow I have to spend the WHOLE day without my man. I think I will be ok; the weather is nice and I have some time booked at the spa as well as…
One of my favorite stops we will make in Ireland is going to be at what is known as Giant’s Causeway. It is a coastal part of Northern Ireland that was an old volcano. the mountain eroded away and what remains are the hardened rocks of the interior. They are…
The Blue Lagoon geothermal hot springs in Iceland are one of the most popular hot springs in the world. Rated by National Geographic as one of their bucket-list places to visit.
We are going to the I-lands, Ireland and Iceland! We just booked our flight to Reykjavik this afternoon and are extremely excited about it. I am sure you are wondering why we want to go to a frozen land during the coldest month of the year? Two words… aurora borealis.
