Norway: Fjords of Fun Part 2

Flåm

It only took 3 months, but I am finally finishing blogging about the rest of our Norway trip. After this, I'll update about our exciting winter months around Germany, our last trip to London and our plans for the next few months.

Norway: Fjords of Fun Part 1

Hellestylt

So, I am finally getting around to posting about our trip to Norway. Two weeks after getting home from Norway, I took the GRE which I had been anxiously studying for and now I've completed most of my graduate school applications. I submitted two out of three applications and had one interview. My final application should be completed within the next few weeks and I should receive a decision from two of the schools by February. Here is to hoping I get into grad school!

Ireland: Dublin, Belfast and Giant's Causeway

It's been a while since I've updated the blog. For several months, we mostly hung out around our town and patiently waited for the weather to warm up again. We planted flowers, bought bikes, pulled out our summer clothing and did just about everything we could to encourage spring to arrive. It finally did, and then we went on vacation to visit a still cold and rainy Ireland.

Cruising the Mediterrenean Part 5: Dubrovnik, Croatia

After leaving Greece, we sailed along the Albanian coast before reaching the final destination of our cruise, Dubrovnik, Croatia. When I first booked the cruise, I sort of shrugged off Dubrovnik as being just another location like Bari that we didn't particularly care to visit. After a little bit of research, we quickly changed our minds.

Cruising the Mediterrenean Part 3: Olympia and Santorini, Greece

We made 4 stops in Greece on our cruise of the eastern Mediterranean. Our first stop, Katakolon, was a short drive from Olympia, the home of the first Olympic games. The second stop, Santorini, was very possibly one of the most beautiful places we have ever seen. It also was home to some of the most delicious food. Greg still claims he is going to take flight to Greece some time just to eat lunch and fly back home.
