Marbella, Spain & Malaga Round 2

I'm not sure why I've slacked on finishing up our Southern Spain trip, maybe like when we were on our trip I didn't want it to end. No, seriously, on our last day in Spain, while we were soaking up the sun laying on the beach looking out on the Mediterranean, I got mad because it was our last day on vacation. Usually I don't get mad when we have to go back to the real world, but maybe it was the fact that this would be our last vacation for a while. Or maybe because it was just such a...

Regensburg, Germany

Back in March, Drew's mom, Gwen, came all the way from Canada to visit us for a week! She has been our first and only visitor here. Which we understand, flights are expensive and taking time off of work is hard. But we were so thrilled to FINALLY have someone else here to experience what we get to.  Drew and I got a day off in the middle of the week so we decided to use the time to take...

Normandy, France

In November 2014, we took a trip with Explore Europe Travel to France. It was our second trip with them, our first long weekend trip though. I've heard mixed reviews, but all in all it was a good trip. It was a combined trip with a day in Normandy and Honfleur, and 2 days in Paris (I'll save Paris for another post.) We had wanted to go to Normandy for the longest time and had actually planned...

Ronda, Spain

I feel like I've said this in every single post, but I loved Ronda!  Maybe it was the history, or the fact that I just had the best time in Spain, but every single place we traveled to was AMAZING. Some information about Ronda; Ronda sits in the heart of the Serrania de Ronda, about 100kms from the city of Malaga and with a population of approximately 35,000 inhabitants. Surrounded...

Seville, Spain

Ever heard the saying "Seville = Love"? Because it does. The hotel was tucked away in a little alley That's the best way to describe it. I absolutely loved Seville and cannot say enough great things about it. Friday morning we woke up, had something to eat, stopped off in Tarifa for a "quick" souvenir pick up. Finally after what felt like forever, we found our shot glass and magnet, got some...

Tarifa, Spain / Tangier, Morocco, Africa

After hitting up main street Gibraltar, filling up on Fish & Chips, tea, and homemade scones, we got our magnet and shot glass (Our MUST souvenirs) we crossed the border back into Spain. Everything I've read says that it's harder to cross back into Spain then crossing over into Gibraltar, maybe we were lucky, but we waited in the line up for maybe 15 minutes and drove back over without even getting...

Gibraltar, Gibraltar

We woke up from a good night sleep semi-early (we're on vacation after all) and packed up our things to head down to Gibraltar.  Costa De Sol We packed up the car plugged in "Gibraltar" in to the GPS and we were off. We drove along the Costa De Sol, catching glimpses of the ocean. We stopped for gas up on a hill and could see the coast. I, of course, wanted to take a picture. Drew humors...

Malaga, Spain

First things first, since I can't rewind 2 years and start this blog when I first got to Germany, I figured I would start with our most recent trip. Southern Spain.  I can't read German but I guessed it was the equivalent to "Share a Coke with your Soulmate." I got a week off from work for Spring Break, and luckily Drew got to take some time off as well. :) Ryanair, I cannot keep quiet...
