Visiting Paris most definitely requires a stop at the Eiffel Tower, but my favorite way to take in the monument is to watch it sparkle from afar. Every evening on the hour, the Eiffel Tower puts on a 5 minute show with 20,000 sparkling, twinkling...
Washington DC is a fast-paced, ever-changing city and the political center of the United States. We spent some time over the holidays exploring our nation's capital city. It was a chilly couple of days because we were coming from our "adopted home" of Florida, but we...
Bruges is a picturesque, post-card town full of quaint charm. Neither Micah nor I could put down our cameras because there was beauty every which way we turned. As we were walking around on a brisk November day, we decided that the town is exactly...
In my mind, Christmas is bundling up in a sweater and listening to the crackle of a fireplace with snow on the ground outside, and now that we live in Florida, I kind of miss the Minnesotan version of Christmas. Thankfully, the beautiful weather and...
In honor of the #FriFotos theme Sweets, I decided to feature some of the delicious treats we loved in Paris. My all time favorite sweet I ate while in Paris was the decadent crêpe I ordered at the Chez Suzette Crêperie in the Latin quarter. Just...
I always wanted to face my fear of flying in a small airplane, but I never dreamt I would have the opportunity to actually fly one myself. A friend and I purchased a Groupon for a discovery flight lesson, where one person would get to...

I'd be lying if I said Orlando wasn't overflowing with Mickey Mouse and theme parks galore, but underneath all the theme park hype, Orlando really does have many other fun and unique activities to offer. I can't even begin to count how many times I've...
The theme of this weeks #FriFotos is Peaks. We have hiked mountains and hills, and climbed to the top of many tall towers, but a different type of peak that we came to enjoy recently, was fairly small and consumed at ground level. The cuberdon...
We walked countless miles on our weekend getaway to Toronto and Niagara Falls. From running to catch our boat on Toronto Islands and exploring the many neighborhoods of Toronto, to wandering all over the Canadian Niagara Falls area, walking across the Rainbow Bridge to the...
This week's #FriFotos is Greatful which fits in well with the Thanksgiving holiday weekend and beginning of the Christmas season! There are so many things I am grateful for in life--another thing I am grateful for is the people who have taken great measures to protect...
My ears began to pop as the elevator rose 113 stories in only 58 seconds and the views out the elevator's glass front and glass floor became expansive. Weighing in at 130,000 tons and standing at a height of 1,815.4 ft tall, the CN tower...
