I’m alternating catching up on travel posts as well as current baby posts, so this is one of the latter. I love getting to re-live our travels by digging up photos and details of our past trips, especially since travel is not really an option for us right now. I hope you enjoy this little […]
World Travel
Cordova, Spain
Since we can’t travel for now, I figured I’d reminisce and share some of our favorite places in Spain! Cordova was a medieval gem and these hot summer days in Texas definitely remind me of the hot summer days in Spain.
Florence
My heart goes out to Italy during this difficult time with COVID-19. Italy is one of my favorite places I’ve traveled and is my ancestral home. My Nonnie’s side of the family (Pierangelis and Nonis) can be traced to a tiny town called Colognora. I still have cousins there that I have never met! Aaron […]
Schonbrunn Palace
One of the most memorable places we visited in Vienna was Schonbrunn Palace. The interior rooms were breathtaking and the gardens were gorgeous. This is a highly recommended spot to add to anyone’s Vienna bucket list.
Our Introduction to Vienna
Vienna was one of the places I was most looking forward to in Austria. Aside from Munich, it was the only big European city we were visiting this trip. This history of this country all culminates to its capitol. Napoleon sacked it (twice), Hitler annexed Austria and announced it in Vienna, the Hapsburg dynasty ended […]
The Krimml Waterfall and an introduction to Zell Am See
We left Innsbruck early and headed toward Zell Am See which was in the Austrian province of Salzburger Land. Along the way Aaron had a few places planned that he wanted to stop. Before we could get there, however, we had to stop for some petrol and it was painful! You really notice how highly […]
Imst, St. Anton an Alberg, and our last day in Innsbruck
Our final day in the Innsbruck/Tyrol area was full of hiking and exploration. Aaron had mentioned a few months before our trip that he was interested in Alpine Sliders (I had never heard of them) but when we realized Imst had one we just HAD to go. Imst was about a 1.5 hour drive from […]
A Rainy Day In Tirol
Our plans for today were pretty much dictated by the weather. It is supposed to rain for the rest of the week, so we had to adjust our hiking/alpine plans we had made which meant we got to explore more of the Tyrolean countryside! Before I even woke up today, Aaron had an alternate plan. […]
The Historic Innsbruck
After we got off the mountain, we came home for a quick freshen up and “costume” change and then we went straight downtown. We used our Innsbruck Card to get on the bus and it was about a 10 minute trek down the hill. We basically just oriented ourselves with the city and checked out […]
Nordkette: The Jewel of the Alps
We started out the morning early after our 24 hour day of travel. We opted to do as much outdoor stuff as possible today because unfortunately, there is rain in the forecast for the rest of the week. Our AirBnB is about a 4 minute walk to the ski lift that takes us up the […]
