It pains me to say it, but our trip to the Amalfi Coast could have been a little better if I had properly prepared and planned ahead of time. Don’t get me wrong, it’s hard for a trip there to be anything but amazing when you are surrounded by endless beauty as far as theRead more
Our number one recommendation, no matter where you are staying on the Amalfi Coast, is to take a boat tour. It’s one of the easiest and quickest ways to see all the towns of the coast, and there are a number of options depending on exactly what you want to see and explore. Due toRead more
The Conca Dei Marini area lies about halfway between Amalfi and Positano, offering more of a suburb type feel versus being in the middle of it all in one of the bigger towns. The houses and villas sit high above the sea meaning you can wake up to the most spectacular sunsets. But it alsoRead more
I think I took this exact picture multiple times every single day during our stay, but I swear each time something new revealed itself. The morning I took this one I was grateful for the beautiful sunshine after spending the night trembling under the covers while one of the craziest storms I’ve ever witnessed toreRead more

So, the day of the wedding was finally upon us. The morning spent scrambling to get everyone dressed, including a number of trips to and from Marco’s apartment and our hotel made by moi to retrieve various accessories Will forgot to complete his mess dress. The caravan lined up in the parking lot of theRead more
I’m going to have to just admit up front that I did not do the best job documenting this amazing experience through photos. A middle of the night departure from Germany, followed by a full day of activities with no nap to be had, before finally finding our heads on a pillow close to midnight,Read more
From the time we filled out our first “dream sheet” of assignment locations for the Air Force, Aviano, Italy has been my #1 choice. It didn’t matter if our chances were dismal at best, or that neither of us speak a lick of Italian. All I knew was that being stationed in one of myRead more
