Angels Landing





First time for both of us! We hiked clear to the tip top. It was breath taking. Really a great adventure!!!

Europe here we come!!


















We were lucky enough to travel to Europe once again for work. Ryan and I decided to go on a cruise in Greece before we started work in Germany. The plane ride was a little long especially for Ry he had eight kids sitting in his lap and their mother drooling while he was trying to sleep. After 17hrs of flying we finally made it to Greece and were beyond excited to go on our first cruise.We were so excited we slept through breakfast and lunch and basically everytime we sat down it was hilarious.People must of thought we were senior citizens(jk my grandma used to fall asleep everytime she sat down).The first stop was Mykones it was a beautiful city all of the buildings were white just like you see in the movies. We loved the pink pelicans and little Venice. I forgot to mention we stopped in Amsterdam on the plane ride over quite the city!Lots of Bikes,Pot shops,mayonaise,historic buildings,clogs and flowers. The second stop on the cruise was in Turkey one of our favorites. We walked through Ephesus (this is where Paul delievered his message to the Ephesians) it was so neat. We had an awesome taxi driver who told us a lot of history and loved Utah he was cracking us up. While in Turkey someone was trying to sale us a million dollar rug and they thought we really might buy it.crazy. Patamos was our next destination. It was a beautiful day we rode tug boats onto the island. Patamos is the place where John wrote the book of Revelations in the cave. We went inside the cave and also visited St. Johns monestary. Crete was the next morning. It was pretty rainy we didn't do much but we did expolore the city center. Our favorite place was the last day Santorini!! It is on the top of the island we rode cable cars to the top.We really enjoyed the little city even though it was raining did I mentioned we walked down and Ryan slipped in the donkey poop(super funny but not at the time:). We loved our first cruise. We will never forget our trip to the greek islands. Before getting back on the plane to Germany we were able to explore Athens which was Sweet! Working in Germany was awesome!The people were so nice and helpful on the militarty base. The hotel we stayed in was so nice and in the same building as the BX. Sales were great so we also were able to sight see in Munich and Germany's Disneyland Castle Neutshwasein.It was such an amazing trip we are so grateful for the awesome adventure!!
