After my Christmas Holidays abroad, I needed to focus on what to plan for Chloe’s arrival in late 2018. She was able to plan a 10 week holiday from Australia to visit me in Canada. We had to narrow down cities in order to make her 10 weeks amazing! Canada is a rather large country … More 2018: the year Chloe visits Canada
Waking up on our final day on holiday has got to be one of the worst feelings. Knowing this epic adventure is coming to an end has me feeling a bit sad. And it was as if Prague knew we were leaving too. The rain had started at some point in the night and was … More All good things must come to an end
Day 1 Today is the first day of 2018! And we are on a train headed to Prague. As you recall we have left Krakow in the rearview and I am beyond excited to be going back to one of the most beautiful cities I have ever been! The train journey seemed to go quickly. … More Hello again, Praha
Our last full day in Krakow has us up early again. This time we are on our way to the Oskar Schindler Enamel Factory. We were hoping to beat the rush, but when we arrived we realized that was not the case. The line was already out the door. Unbeknownst to us, you could pre-purchase … More Krakow pt. Two

Ok so we’ve left the AmaViola and Adventures by Disney. We’re now on the second leg of our journey! I planned the entire thing for the most part.

Today we are arriving in Budapest for our final full day with Adventures by Disney. Tomorrow we are set to leave the ship to start the second leg of our own adventure.

Today we are all going to the Spanish Riding School to watch the world famous Lipizzan Stallions. … More Christmas in Vienna

We were heading there this morning after breakfast for a tour of the Abbey. We were told it was not to be missed. Our guides were right! … More Melk and Krems
