I had a wonderful lunch there and perused the various stores then headed to the University Church because it has a tower that can be climbed to get great views of the city. When I arrived at the church, they were just beginning a piano recital.

We visited the Tower of London as our first stop. I didn't realize that it was actually the first castle ordered for construction under William the Conqueror in 1066 after the Battle of Normandy. The Tower is also the place that stores and guards the Crown Jewels - HUGE jewels!! I am actually not sure how the crowns are balanced on their heads! The Tower also has a very sordid history involving the imprisonment of various citizens and the mysterious disappearance of two young brothers who were the heir to throne and his younger brother. Their uncle became the next king instead. Bones of two children were found years and years later on the property. Very suspicious! If you get to visit The Tower, I highly recommend taking some time to speak with one of the many Yeoman Warders also know as Beefeaters. They are The Tower guards and they and their families actually live in the Tower property. The guard we spoke with was very friendly and super informative!</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;"><br /></div><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjTDFh699vDTtmE1zEuGF8GG0-0u3jOdhONNx6fWbsN7cT7jNzZbiIe75Iym6Y2RTy7yYeiSjtvidqVeHZJumH0b5GTwGiYFOhtwA_2CbUSGtf9_KSWLY2COSMqxHlGOda_KEEtDp4n8VnoWyux5-_qnQFTL7T5_02Kmt-U377MQGtXu3vjQpBkvTy43eoy/s6240/England_2024-95Web.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" data-original-height="4160" data-original-width="6240" height="426" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjTDFh699vDTtmE1zEuGF8GG0-0u3jOdhONNx6fWbsN7cT7jNzZbiIe75Iym6Y2RTy7yYeiSjtvidqVeHZJumH0b5GTwGiYFOhtwA_2CbUSGtf9_KSWLY2COSMqxHlGOda_KEEtDp4n8VnoWyux5-_qnQFTL7T5_02Kmt-U377MQGtXu3vjQpBkvTy43eoy/w640-h426/England_2024-95Web.jpg" width="640" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">Tower of London</td></tr></tbody></table><br /><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEge2BMi0su99ilBHQMh481B0DjmchlteNSNq0ArRkSxQA3pDkRZ0YqdOZyV1r7utouXYwbRpbKAxVJ22oWApXkYGUEPf7J-1aPysjAqVQRydM5O7v_cesZRfdxMx01LRpCr0iSXmDkm1TN_sfrhbD0OqusqbIO9jJ2aEsXsnFAKDXtOWtKHnIAr84VFA5id/s6240/England_2024-92Web.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" data-original-height="4160" data-original-width="6240" height="426" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEge2BMi0su99ilBHQMh481B0DjmchlteNSNq0ArRkSxQA3pDkRZ0YqdOZyV1r7utouXYwbRpbKAxVJ22oWApXkYGUEPf7J-1aPysjAqVQRydM5O7v_cesZRfdxMx01LRpCr0iSXmDkm1TN_sfrhbD0OqusqbIO9jJ2aEsXsnFAKDXtOWtKHnIAr84VFA5id/w640-h426/England_2024-92Web.jpg" width="640" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">Tower Castle - in the center of the property</td></tr></tbody></table><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiof14pOGV8B-hlPRySQQFzeFAJvePaNxjR3tfx_RP83D3a8TZixXE3YiOpu2lTCWP7wy76mwYPlRCOqbIT9ahpyK-iCbGPqtMkPdydG04w61JYGPclu5HOBrrH1Kbv-JUQg0HwjKk80j5YpfE6NKxq-6D3qKk-LAJ4VvPFY320TI8w0NZNSUkdftuoE1CQ/s6066/England_2024-87Web.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="4044" data-original-width="6066" height="426" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiof14pOGV8B-hlPRySQQFzeFAJvePaNxjR3tfx_RP83D3a8TZixXE3YiOpu2lTCWP7wy76mwYPlRCOqbIT9ahpyK-iCbGPqtMkPdydG04w61JYGPclu5HOBrrH1Kbv-JUQg0HwjKk80j5YpfE6NKxq-6D3qKk-LAJ4VvPFY320TI8w0NZNSUkdftuoE1CQ/w640-h426/England_2024-87Web.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><br /><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiQewN5kCWKZpUdpcWTWw3ZoTGwVnd_cxSDNZ38sA0XGy9eg0n4LuSKlQYOEZbbdZTIaHky1OrgYOHDWwnmHNL6t7ZvWNSJUqmld3ckkJUjkOWfnOtbgp_CVFo_HbvagMJBBxjJvfxehdlJ3YYHZOZUWO7-Q6mVb68hw98XKELtquDFqLEsMpKRDXPor9Bv/s3391/England_2024-90Web.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2261" data-original-width="3391" height="426" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiQewN5kCWKZpUdpcWTWw3ZoTGwVnd_cxSDNZ38sA0XGy9eg0n4LuSKlQYOEZbbdZTIaHky1OrgYOHDWwnmHNL6t7ZvWNSJUqmld3ckkJUjkOWfnOtbgp_CVFo_HbvagMJBBxjJvfxehdlJ3YYHZOZUWO7-Q6mVb68hw98XKELtquDFqLEsMpKRDXPor9Bv/w640-h426/England_2024-90Web.jpg" width="640" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">One of the Tower ravens.

Newbury is the closest train station to Highclere Castle and that's where we were spending the morning! If you don't know what Highclere Castle is then you probably aren't a Downton Abbey fan. I was super thrilled to be visiting because one, it's stunning and I love old buildings and two, it's where a majority of one of my favorite TV shows was filmed. I love just about any period piece and Downton Abbey is at the top of my list of favorites. I enjoy the history, the costuming, the setting...

Our guide did a great job telling us the history of the home - yes, it is someone's family home, and mixing in tidbits about Downton Abbey. The current Earl and his family don't live there full time but family photos were throughout. All of the furniture with the exception of a few small pieces was used in the filming of the show. We weren't allowed to take any photos inside of the home. But trust me, it was beautiful. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">Currently, the 8th Earl is in residence. Interestingly, the 5th Earl was very interested in archaeology and discovered the tomb of Tutankhamun. As part of the tour, the family has an archaeology exhibit on the property filled with artifacts that are 3000-5000 years old! Some of the artifacts from his dig were sold to The MET in NYC.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">After the tour, we were served tea, cakes, soup, finger sandwiches and desserts.

Not really because of where we go, but because of who I am with! Time with my kiddos gets more and more rare as they get older. To have 10 days with my not-so-little-guy and my main guy making memories, having inside jokes, seeing sites that we've never seen and generally just hanging out together is priceless! This kid has big plans on the horizon which will likely mean fewer and fewer visits with him. I am so super proud of him and the direction he has planned, but it will be difficult. It made my time with him even sweeter! </span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: verdana;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;

There are two small towns just a the base of the Meteora - Kalambaka and Kastriki. We stayed in Kalambaka at an Airbnb. It was a great value and location, a nicely done apartment, and our host was super nice! He lived in part of the home which was divided into individual apartments. And a bonus - we got to hang out with his guard dog, Buffett (pronounced like Jimmy<i>Buffett</i>)!</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto;

Originally there were 24 monasteries. There are 6 remaining that are in use and operating with monks. Visitors are allowed but photographs can't be taken on the inside of the monasteries. The mere constructions of them is astounding. Some are larger and some are smaller. They continue to maintain the 6 in existence and have also added on to them. We visited 2 of them on the inside. They are rather extraordinary. Visitors, of course, can only visit certain rooms in the monasteries but in both, we were able to see the rooms where it appeared their ceremonies took place. They walls were painted elaborating from floor to the ceiling and also covered the ceilings. The scene told religious stories. Some of the monasteries contained nursing homes and hospitals. It wasn't clear if these were only used by the monks or if they accepted others.</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;

Crowds were thundering in! He said he started to feel like what he imagined Jesus felt like in the temple when he toppled tables in the temple because the people had turned the temple into a commercial affair!! I will say, if you want to visit these, spring or fall would be best! There were so many tour buses that started arriving from Athens and Thessoloniki.

Yum! We also got a taste of the locals hanging out killing time with each other. Kalambaka seems to have a large number of local men hanging out at various small restaurants.

We have no idea if it was a monastery or something else or how old it was. It wasn't marked. Jac hiked up to explore and took photos of the inside. It was very elaborate on the inside with what appeared to be various homes or rooms. This really reminded us of his senior trip from high school graduation when we visited the cave dwellings Mesa Verde National Park.</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;

Our original destination wasn't successful - no waterfall so we opted for a second option that was a little further away - about 40 minutes. It was well worth the drive! The first location Google maps took us to lead to a so many steps down. At the end of the steps was a stone bridge with a waterfall behind it. However, in front of it, we could see a lower area with parking that would allow us to reach the water. So, we found the road to the lower location and Jac was thrilled to have the area almost entirely to himself. The water was ridiculously cold!! He said he thinks it's the coldest water he has even been in. Chris stood in the water for a bit and I dipped my toe and quickly knew it was not for me! I don't do cold water!! It sure was beautiful though!! The bridge was will in the 1500s!! The waterfalls were created, though, in the 1970s as a way to help manage water flow to the farmlands in the area. Together, they make for a beautiful scene!</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: verdana;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;

From there we rented a car and headed north. Our planned route was to go to Delphi and then head to Kalabaka where we plan to stay two nights. On the way out of Athens, we got stuck in a traffic jam that really wasted a lot of time. We eventually stopped at a rest area (which here has restrooms, gas and food sources) for a break and some lunch. I had food from a place that I can't really pronounce but I believe is also called Gregory's in English. I believe it is a Greek chain here because I have seen them in every city we have visited.</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: verdana;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh2zJ2NqdTnpqZpzQyIqZBAiUm4ZdkDJiq93sj69Fbih05S6z5DoecXqVn0jAWrEMJwhx8ZiBwKcL-aIO54o1OB9W4b9NZjDry9cGx4YbHOKD0p7HYIqh96CYCX6xwvwq2tr_lTz4FM8hx7c7cPu5ZqLJDHQvh56u8nho28hKKyOQWLuyQ7S0Rln8L1UpLf/s4032/IMG_8268.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="3024" data-original-width="4032" height="480" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh2zJ2NqdTnpqZpzQyIqZBAiUm4ZdkDJiq93sj69Fbih05S6z5DoecXqVn0jAWrEMJwhx8ZiBwKcL-aIO54o1OB9W4b9NZjDry9cGx4YbHOKD0p7HYIqh96CYCX6xwvwq2tr_lTz4FM8hx7c7cPu5ZqLJDHQvh56u8nho28hKKyOQWLuyQ7S0Rln8L1UpLf/w640-h480/IMG_8268.JPG" width="640" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;"><br /></div><br /><span style="font-family: verdana;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhrzNxL4y6gNYAozMhMU7lh7FPc7gKm9h6o2CqY9QtFvNVnVXwhE-716PnidtceFkNFkPpbYIfId6ymwpyfDaFOhUf-_T79igGC-zRl3jmqInVjRXRWyqmbumDuJeYp8vNHb_l-R7IkKWRKevnmwZZMSwEASMKOPewPHbCrkBCZTNfavB8e2Q-hjd8df0K5/s4032/IMG_8272.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="4032" data-original-width="3024" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhrzNxL4y6gNYAozMhMU7lh7FPc7gKm9h6o2CqY9QtFvNVnVXwhE-716PnidtceFkNFkPpbYIfId6ymwpyfDaFOhUf-_T79igGC-zRl3jmqInVjRXRWyqmbumDuJeYp8vNHb_l-R7IkKWRKevnmwZZMSwEASMKOPewPHbCrkBCZTNfavB8e2Q-hjd8df0K5/w480-h640/IMG_8272.JPG" width="480" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjLk05bXVxoPD5842PFNuGTAiXHqllzPqdW-YlfO9vEutiQcesrQRV_cC_G4c4usASy4f9x97KnBu6uuoioFAANR0LJdw-02pNE_tud3WVVi--T_OjeVVtCp1P4hmeuvAh7_uPCnJFxCMOQASXinT9T_GlhK9Y5_CUgeupLLsYbM5f_KbEiz1n0_Iv87TmW/s4032/IMG_8270.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="4032" data-original-width="3024" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjLk05bXVxoPD5842PFNuGTAiXHqllzPqdW-YlfO9vEutiQcesrQRV_cC_G4c4usASy4f9x97KnBu6uuoioFAANR0LJdw-02pNE_tud3WVVi--T_OjeVVtCp1P4hmeuvAh7_uPCnJFxCMOQASXinT9T_GlhK9Y5_CUgeupLLsYbM5f_KbEiz1n0_Iv87TmW/w480-h640/IMG_8270.JPG" width="480" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiClTn2i7ILZ-xaAmg8IS7H6xZHvmZM1AQGzsJ5t_heDIfeHywwkQuXLBrp4IHevQsLW5u_EAmqjQV0tnium4B0rBufCC6YaxgwuhtNBrXQMBF2PUnQvcE48VuSyP_6JMcWT8cuLZl7buon_TEqrU-QWf3JnoSSO20qSMxHYz1saqIE1pkCI9b_NWT_jG3w/s4032/IMG_8269.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="4032" data-original-width="3024" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiClTn2i7ILZ-xaAmg8IS7H6xZHvmZM1AQGzsJ5t_heDIfeHywwkQuXLBrp4IHevQsLW5u_EAmqjQV0tnium4B0rBufCC6YaxgwuhtNBrXQMBF2PUnQvcE48VuSyP_6JMcWT8cuLZl7buon_TEqrU-QWf3JnoSSO20qSMxHYz1saqIE1pkCI9b_NWT_jG3w/w480-h640/IMG_8269.JPG" width="480" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: verdana;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">The drive both to Delphi and then to Kalabaka was breathtaking!

Delphi is the location of the mythical oracle that Greeks would come from far and wide to visit to hear their prophecy. There is quite a bit of myth and legend around this oracle. Prophecies spoken were always in verse and some have survived and are in existence today. Right after we entered the site and got our audio tour started, it began to slightly rain. We debated staying until lightning showed up! We decided that it was best to go to the museum first, at that point. We were hoping the storm would pass so we could get back to the site; however, the storms didn't subside so we had to forgo those ruins. I was disappointed not to explore the ruins, but the museum did have so many artifacts from the digs in the area.</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: verdana;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;

The reason there were so many artifacts found in the area is because all the visitors that came to see the oracle brought gifts in hopes of receiving a pleasing prophecy. The gifts ranged in size and value. Archeologists discovers two large pits filled with nothing but small artifacts! Some of the larger finds were actually gifts to the oracle and some were part of the ruins. The ruins contained multiple structures, temples, and stoas.</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: verdana;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjniz7W7Phte7qY_dsI01RFwlsvatwT4lgEasfl9mkwIPQJfLWrddDsCPV_ZK9ZgP77s_dYwEq-ESzy2gljQCbUZgYquw1L06HVYkV8_WyxtM-BwWbrHln_j1qR3-8X7377O67rTrRM3Bx00mwlWELqho6-31Q1BX4FF2BNyiDf-gk7H-AhzR5nx6RX0uC1/s4032/IMG_8278.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="3024" data-original-width="4032" height="480" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjniz7W7Phte7qY_dsI01RFwlsvatwT4lgEasfl9mkwIPQJfLWrddDsCPV_ZK9ZgP77s_dYwEq-ESzy2gljQCbUZgYquw1L06HVYkV8_WyxtM-BwWbrHln_j1qR3-8X7377O67rTrRM3Bx00mwlWELqho6-31Q1BX4FF2BNyiDf-gk7H-AhzR5nx6RX0uC1/w640-h480/IMG_8278.JPG" width="640" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgT-ITHe_oFCdC0aUXAy15VpyW5V1IECN4ZrTv6_G0VUHZuayOXP-S7v0gDVGDhFArZBlROjdiXHE5Pq4Plpij-608Jhj9va5ZIs1IF1pT6-ZqtiJORL4BoBJ4BkToLjJbGLPPwrPTO8wJl6vHakyLAjyD4vv886rz1PtV0s6O7UIyPkYs3bgep8XfwL1RQ/s4032/IMG_8279.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="4032" data-original-width="3024" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgT-ITHe_oFCdC0aUXAy15VpyW5V1IECN4ZrTv6_G0VUHZuayOXP-S7v0gDVGDhFArZBlROjdiXHE5Pq4Plpij-608Jhj9va5ZIs1IF1pT6-ZqtiJORL4BoBJ4BkToLjJbGLPPwrPTO8wJl6vHakyLAjyD4vv886rz1PtV0s6O7UIyPkYs3bgep8XfwL1RQ/w480-h640/IMG_8279.JPG" width="480" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">We left Delphi and headed to Kalabaka, further north.

We leave create early tomorrow morning and the main airport is in Heraklion. Just south of Heraklion is Knossos. Located there is one the oldest archeological sites in Greece. The area was originally a Minoan civilization possibly dating back to 7000 BC - no that isn't a typo! The site eventually housed two palaces and the first dates back to around 1700 BC. The existing structure on the site was discovered in the late 1800s by archeologist Minos Kalokairinos who not only excavated but also tried to rebuild parts of the palace. Because of that, parts of the original palace from 1700 BC, parts of the new palace (dating somewhere between 1700-1450 BC), and Minos' reconstruction are all combined together. In places, it's obvious where his reconstructions are and in other places, it's not as easy to tell. In the photo below, you can clearly see the smooth surface over older items because some of the smooth, newer surface as crumbled away. It's kind of confounding to me why an archeologist would do this. </p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiB6tBsZIpm-tOFqxJ30aoZO3TNKY95so4vBcun62A9rKXReY6f3gYNtRHSvN4dZlBkp1a4Vbdga6ccl2z-M4ftWMYsCoBIK0GtilX4i6e_dD16SpcjsZBLSAFjXP4IuKxuhCYDo0v8480tK3rtctnIBSbqrjbUb-OS4wMUhASMiLYjAYNhGGbSFd_8iLw3/s6240/Greece_Day6_Crete-19Web.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="4160" data-original-width="6240" height="426" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiB6tBsZIpm-tOFqxJ30aoZO3TNKY95so4vBcun62A9rKXReY6f3gYNtRHSvN4dZlBkp1a4Vbdga6ccl2z-M4ftWMYsCoBIK0GtilX4i6e_dD16SpcjsZBLSAFjXP4IuKxuhCYDo0v8480tK3rtctnIBSbqrjbUb-OS4wMUhASMiLYjAYNhGGbSFd_8iLw3/w640-h426/Greece_Day6_Crete-19Web.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">Upon entry, you can see several deep round areas. It is only a guess as to what these areas were used for, but the rock walls of the areas dates to around 1200 BC so they suspect they were used during the time of the "new" palace, possibly as water or rubbish storage.

It is even questioned whether it was governed by King Minos or not, but instead the queen. Other discoveries also led archeologists to believe the the society was one that was very concerned about beauty, everything from clothing to eye brow plucking for both men and women. Hair was an important symbol of beauty and also a symbol of age. Young children's heads were shaved and as they aged, certain parts were allowed to grow. Once adulthood was reached, the hair was allowed to grow and not be cut regardless of if you were a man or woman.</span> </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj9yA02b3BvVl4zC5Hl75K3S3FgiNc1xXPQlpE6pf3C3c6RNCuwu3_zBif5cMc8itNnSj0uPMAHKI29UUJg3LPbGvAgvvUlwoE1Baq3zGVwKdWAYXSWSacF0cRQeEL07QTuxyyHz0bM45u525-_F0vv4Df54xpE-lUtFjzgmkoliZlCFNAP3fbTYs8qL44j/s6240/Greece_Day6_Crete-7Web.jpg" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" data-original-height="4160" data-original-width="6240" height="426" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj9yA02b3BvVl4zC5Hl75K3S3FgiNc1xXPQlpE6pf3C3c6RNCuwu3_zBif5cMc8itNnSj0uPMAHKI29UUJg3LPbGvAgvvUlwoE1Baq3zGVwKdWAYXSWSacF0cRQeEL07QTuxyyHz0bM45u525-_F0vv4Df54xpE-lUtFjzgmkoliZlCFNAP3fbTYs8qL44j/w640-h426/Greece_Day6_Crete-7Web.jpg" width="640" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">You can see the pieces that have been put back together</td></tr></tbody></table><br /><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgtva1fl-XdBj0SuFcJOPHyPpXXAFC3mraJ1RsbrSeKt8Nusw-NsHNs3c4au92p04tZT3VxrQgREgppUWaoknCGh9jdYSjduhH-USXj6vWYMCeW6HW8ftNqYpIOtIpbMV6pyL3SX_IR7bjZja0gSp_lt-am4TdppCoGaiXcDcpJSVmCa1093mbTUUAwg8aw/s6240/Greece_Day6_Crete-8Web.jpg" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" data-original-height="4160" data-original-width="6240" height="426" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgtva1fl-XdBj0SuFcJOPHyPpXXAFC3mraJ1RsbrSeKt8Nusw-NsHNs3c4au92p04tZT3VxrQgREgppUWaoknCGh9jdYSjduhH-USXj6vWYMCeW6HW8ftNqYpIOtIpbMV6pyL3SX_IR7bjZja0gSp_lt-am4TdppCoGaiXcDcpJSVmCa1093mbTUUAwg8aw/w640-h426/Greece_Day6_Crete-8Web.jpg" width="640" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">You can see the wall that denote different spaces</td></tr></tbody></table><br /><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEit6LhIfSrkoAoI8MoR52ZBqJU5bu378uV-WYMnfnuzxbGkk1vDc9mpQ5PURZgbFsErAK7-uCQHCVx17kcSItqY5hUhKuMIDogEPc5B6RmNwHK7z-ySCkdY95B5JWzDqJQo7SjsWemlK2Sx7CQx8uuK6C7vYosBAkKVFWQEuWXEeqO4iTR1lwh41TPyNKKo/s6240/Greece_Day6_Crete-12Web.jpg" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" data-original-height="4160" data-original-width="6240" height="426" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEit6LhIfSrkoAoI8MoR52ZBqJU5bu378uV-WYMnfnuzxbGkk1vDc9mpQ5PURZgbFsErAK7-uCQHCVx17kcSItqY5hUhKuMIDogEPc5B6RmNwHK7z-ySCkdY95B5JWzDqJQo7SjsWemlK2Sx7CQx8uuK6C7vYosBAkKVFWQEuWXEeqO4iTR1lwh41TPyNKKo/w640-h426/Greece_Day6_Crete-12Web.jpg" width="640" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">Some archeological areas are covers like this because it's an ongoing dig/excavation.</td></tr></tbody></table><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">The palace is also recorded as having the first ever flushing toilets inside of a structure.

Chania, the town we are staying in, is on the northern side of the island. The beach we decided to visit is on the southeastern end of the island. To get there, we had to drive through the countryside and a mountain range. It was an absolutely gorgeous day all the way around.

Beaches are often very rocky throughout Crete, even the area under the water so even though it is an island surrounded with water, of course, you can't swim everywhere. Elafonisi was absolutely remarkably beautiful. Words just don't do it justice. The photos help. Truly, the water is this blue!! I did not alter the color of these pics! It is also crystal clear! We spent the day on the sand, in the water, exploring the rocks and my not-so-little guy did lots of snorkeling and LOVED it. And yes, the sand is pale pink in various areas. Just beautiful!!</span></div><div><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhh6aUNkEbLAgansoWF_Y7hHDfVyOwe3SFRaK6yJi6PRPPqo7L58uxsa0m2zxGYGljImI02vjBofg-0_Mxuj9LPv4dyD1CBGsX3NjLV2C602Ku4gLpjxBeObw5fURv797ipuIjNuyTl1tcpI8mW-g2Ce39BCHJLtH_IRJ7M50KYm6PQwGRn5xpb-otuyc9F/s6240/Greece_Day5_Crete-1Web.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em;

Literally, I think these people just have a few cars and rent them at the airport - sooooo many rental spots! We crammed into our little manual shift rental and headed for our destination of Chania, pronounced Kaun-ya. It is a very old town and one the two main ports in Crete. It was about a 2 hour drive from the airport and the drive was stunning! What we didn't realize is that all of Old Town Chania only has pedestrian streets. We were aware that our Airbnb didn't have parking, but we didn't know we couldn't get super close. After about 45 minutes of trying to get to the place we gave up; Chris dropped us with the bags as close as possible and left us to go find parking. </span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: verdana;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">Jac and I found our place and it is ADORABLE!

So he and I headed toward the beach. The closest beach to Old Town Chania is a little walk. While the Old Town is on the water, it's not beachy - there is a stone water wall. The town was inhabited by the Venetians in the early 1200s and they constructed a large wall around the port city. They also used a dry moat around the wall for protection. The walls and the moat are still in existence today. However, the moat area today seems more like a park, especially for dogs!</span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: verdana;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiOqSl6nYlB_Ygojtv73Lov5vRly2FXdJP-fOubwCOOPKXxjB0zyNZch29UIMscoakPbningWHo9DjP-x3CSiPkkbERANYd2SJgItkKu_09fofYShkoBWBX-lEZMbmYmwNfS938lfPMis55QbQw0iFn-Pc7sk4EaM4PA1j_F84Ie3q5BxwDC6CvAcRLGVL9/s3088/Crete_Day4_Phone5Web.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="3088" data-original-width="2316" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiOqSl6nYlB_Ygojtv73Lov5vRly2FXdJP-fOubwCOOPKXxjB0zyNZch29UIMscoakPbningWHo9DjP-x3CSiPkkbERANYd2SJgItkKu_09fofYShkoBWBX-lEZMbmYmwNfS938lfPMis55QbQw0iFn-Pc7sk4EaM4PA1j_F84Ie3q5BxwDC6CvAcRLGVL9/w480-h640/Crete_Day4_Phone5Web.jpg" width="480" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgcwPJIABaHkr-i7__SFsU-FLKKXhz8Z5sOBduL2vc6TgsxOg1SXrJ4Xq9l6X-P6r55cP0-MD12mtTOGooVXTuthJk92DbTdwB0JqazBbbZZ4TPW0EyIkBDTrhzhvJgYLJYg9JA01p0rQyRemsRdriLH4dtWeJ4HLgdg-miB0H7ycStkLmVdB-GTfNPz9Bg/s6240/Greece_Day4_Crete-4Web.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="4160" data-original-width="6240" height="426" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgcwPJIABaHkr-i7__SFsU-FLKKXhz8Z5sOBduL2vc6TgsxOg1SXrJ4Xq9l6X-P6r55cP0-MD12mtTOGooVXTuthJk92DbTdwB0JqazBbbZZ4TPW0EyIkBDTrhzhvJgYLJYg9JA01p0rQyRemsRdriLH4dtWeJ4HLgdg-miB0H7ycStkLmVdB-GTfNPz9Bg/w640-h426/Greece_Day4_Crete-4Web.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjLeROJWrNMsn7GrwiDSCh6P7S8Ivtk5Da3st9SXWTgQpkQlJ-VQ_rHgEjAhhC3rC3tGjf6-jU5h9ZE0jWYaLntW6-lysiPceLKy_SON7KGicSlemtiBVbEo1NFCCcB-gYsznhKAtx2ShVfW4sLTGygQR5SaDXgySICHd0193oeLNJKC32MdQXwWHIAOce0/s6240/Greece_Day4_Crete-5Web.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="4160" data-original-width="6240" height="426" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjLeROJWrNMsn7GrwiDSCh6P7S8Ivtk5Da3st9SXWTgQpkQlJ-VQ_rHgEjAhhC3rC3tGjf6-jU5h9ZE0jWYaLntW6-lysiPceLKy_SON7KGicSlemtiBVbEo1NFCCcB-gYsznhKAtx2ShVfW4sLTGygQR5SaDXgySICHd0193oeLNJKC32MdQXwWHIAOce0/w640-h426/Greece_Day4_Crete-5Web.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">It was late evening by the time we reached the closest beach area but there were still quite a few people on the shore.

This library dates back to the 1st or 2nd century when Rome had influence over Greece. The current ruins known as Hadrian’s library include some archeological items from the library, but also items and structures from later years after Sparta (Athens’s long time rivals) invaded and destroyed and repaired and repurposed the library. During the time that it was a library, it is said to have held around 20,000 papyrus or vellum scrolls. The very back section was the main library part of the structure and not only held the scrolls but also was a place for orators to come and present information. The scrolls could leave the library (no check outs!) so people studied and discuss while there. To help them relax after study and discussion, the library also contained a pool!! I am just going to say, I have been in a LOT of libraries and NONE of them have pools. Hadrian was way of ahead of his time!</span></p></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><br /><p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEifk0keaIKgqQS8INsF0uwTmJ0Ct5_vji-_orJPkuaBLrd5zyzwLtTxBq-HuKBCoSuP7iXT7IV6oaJuINwLwUXhSg8xpWA5xfbfXgJkPbJZvvaD-f8Z3Zpdmbvhf9HNs17eqv4WiHWCud3ou3TM4XgRXx6GK-9rimuxsAhfCUfWZu-gKeZT5e1QMjfS4H_9/s6240/Greece_Day3_Athens-2Web.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em;

This area was similar in purpose to yesterday’s Ancient Agora, but was minuscule in size comparison. It did contain a rather interesting and well-preserved structure that is known as the world’s first meteorological station. It also served as a type of sundial and if the sun wasn’t shining, it also had a 24 hours hydro powered clock inside. Water from a spring in the Acropolis ran down into the structure and it was used to continually power a clock dial! One interesting tidbit about the Roman Agora is that there were specific people employed to monitor the sales practices of the vendors in the agora to insure fair practices and pricing.</p><p class="p1" style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue";

This is an area where the western most portion of the city wall and a cemetery was discovered. There were two layers of the city wall as well as a 9 meter moat.

The belief was that everyone deserved a burial, but those that were more prominent or influential received elaborate monuments.<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both;

We climbed Filopappou Hill. This hill is named after Philopappos, a great benefactor of ancient Athens in the first century AD. His desire was be buried at one of the highest points in the city and since he was so well liked, the honored his wishes. There is a large monument at the top of the hill honoring him. But the hill is most known for its 360 views of the city as well as the best location for sunset watching. It really is so, so beautiful!</p><p class="p1" style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue"; font-feature-settings: normal; font-kerning: auto; font-optical-sizing: auto; font-size: 13px; font-stretch: normal;

We all slept really well so we set out on foot a little later than planned. By the time we got to the Acropolis it was mid-morning and it was hot! Our "skip-the-line" tickets meant skip the buying line and get in the I-already-have-a-ticket line. Oh well... We have opted for self-guided audio tours which so far, have been good.</p><p>While waiting in the very long line, a news crew was filming and walked down the line and of all the people picked Jac to interview!! It was quite funny because he and his dad had just had a conversation about hoping to be picked and answering with ridiculously southern accents and phrases. Jac did well though. I am sure his communications professors would have been pleased. :-)</p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEieSAj9FGo_HqhvAfoBiSADfg3vR_HamFmWpb-O88STFeOll9QD9Mm_7BrjPPlvT1x-t3v327lBJQwjN3aHacXLtvNLkDKeMZ86TBdl3AoZ5ISHgS3BeAYFnO_OBHXdCF1vVJ2qFxdu0KZUScJJvjYQDJP9qllJ5Uxa7GW4sHctVUaFANacXgcG3aB3g8T6/s1284/IMG_8031.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="705" data-original-width="1284" height="352" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEieSAj9FGo_HqhvAfoBiSADfg3vR_HamFmWpb-O88STFeOll9QD9Mm_7BrjPPlvT1x-t3v327lBJQwjN3aHacXLtvNLkDKeMZ86TBdl3AoZ5ISHgS3BeAYFnO_OBHXdCF1vVJ2qFxdu0KZUScJJvjYQDJP9qllJ5Uxa7GW4sHctVUaFANacXgcG3aB3g8T6/w640-h352/IMG_8031.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><p>We started at the base of the Acropolis with the Theater of Dionysus. You can see from the photos that only some of the rows of the seats are remaining but it originally held 15-17,000 people! It and most of the Acropolis dates to around 500 BC. That's just mind blowing to me! You can also see that even then, they had fancier seats for more the important or influential people.</p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEifxpzcZejzpcm73ulZq2AOnlMK9oxpTiNZr65KopC77C0plIJu680GTAiszUv-UyhPd1CFjLg_jArGDDqREOqg6SDRT0eZyu96sf2m-Uh6kCxo7phTAgKVx3LkqsmkmHmuFS-81GK12wifdu_KZBJX85NXqi6zE0u5rYBCKpZpru8bP_JOpqMkyEyhsoe9/s5977/Greece_Day2_Athens-1Web.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em;

You can see the chairs and such being set up for an orchestra event tomorrow.

Both were beautiful! The Parthenon is dedicated to Athena and is huge!! There are so many amazing details in the construction and how it was put together that I am convinced the ancient Greeks were mathematician wizards! They used a variety of optical illusions in construction. For example, the architects purposely designed the parallel columns to slant inward because they knew that parallel columns that were straight appeared to the eye as if they bent away from each other. The inward slant has also help it stand to this day as a form of protection against the many earthquakes in the area over the years.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;

My not-so-little-guy said he stood there and tried to imagine it without all of the houses but as a landscape with vegetation. It was really hard! Our cab driver yesterday told us that over 10 million people live in Greece and over half of them are in Athens!! </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">The Erechtheion was one of my favorites. I loved the ladies holding up the weight of the roof. It seemed oddly symbolic to me. Not sure about you, but I seem to carry everything in my shoulders! This temple was named for a king - Erechtheas. Both it and the Parthenon are undergoing restorations in areas. On one side of the temple is a sizable olive tree. Olive trees are said to have first appeared here because they are the tree of the goddess Athena. The particular tree in the photos was planted by President Theodore Roosevelt in 1917 as a tree for peace in the new world as in the ancient world.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;

This area was basically a giant gathering area for both governmental and commercial benefit. Lots of debates and governmental decisions and it became popular for people to sell goods there eventually. It covers a wide area and contains numerous ruins. Some are simply foundational stones of buildings that once stood and then you have the Temple of Hephaestus which is the most intact ruin there is. Socrates is said to spent a lot of time here and even said to be imprisoned and eventually put to death by poison here. The area also contains what is known as Europe's oldest road. The main road through the Agora is called The Panathenaic Way and archeologist have discovered 60 layers of gravel on this road and date it back to 600 BC - AMAZING!<div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;

So for high school graduation, they get a domestic trip and for college, they get an international trip. He and I both love traveling and hope to pass the love of new experiences, people and places on to them. </p><p>This spring, our not-so-little-guy graduated from UNCW with honors!! For his graduation trip he picked Greece! It didn't surprise me. He's always loved mythology and can tell me the stories in detail. Rick Riordan has always been his favorite author and the Percy Jackson series was his favorite. Greece fit!</p><p>He has big plans ahead so I am savoring every second of this trip with him!!</p><p>We left RDU at 10:45am on Sunday and arrived in Greece at 11:00am this morning here, Monday.

No matter how many times I go into this building, I always enjoy the beauty and the thought that went into it. I mean, no one has to make a train station pretty but they really chose to do so! From there we took the subway to Washington Square Park right beside NYU. It's odd, NYU feels nothing like a university. Its buildings are just among other NY buildings. Without the flags and signs, one would never know. Maybe we caught it on a bad day, but Washington Square Park was nothing to write home about. Honestly, I thought we had stepped back in time to Woodstock or maybe I was visiting Boone. We didn't stay long though and hopped back on the subway to head downtown to the ferry station. </p><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto;

The girls decided that they didn't exactly appreciate the Inn's vintage charm! At some point in the night, the old Inn's creaks and groans, as well as the heavy rain through the night, translated as "scary" and they all ended up in the same room of their suite huddled together. After talking with them on the car ride today, they think maybe the Inn is haunted. They definitely weren't super well-rested today! </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjI2ppk06eR-Pa7kgbR5r-OYn9-XrLv0rTRkJ-SqOvGNQQNHLUyPmj8a3ysYT0wDLY2I8vWmdndnZRcevYHchDP5Sqlf8EOsnrfCysYt1NMSMzf-g2NJP0zkS7L4FoDUYR4cUUSNNns7yeEdr3sip590fR_VTOnPCRNbtjzjCYg_pBZz8yyYBV4uJ1H0w/s4032/NutterButterGradTrip_Day2-35.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" data-original-height="4032" data-original-width="3024" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjI2ppk06eR-Pa7kgbR5r-OYn9-XrLv0rTRkJ-SqOvGNQQNHLUyPmj8a3ysYT0wDLY2I8vWmdndnZRcevYHchDP5Sqlf8EOsnrfCysYt1NMSMzf-g2NJP0zkS7L4FoDUYR4cUUSNNns7yeEdr3sip590fR_VTOnPCRNbtjzjCYg_pBZz8yyYBV4uJ1H0w/w480-h640/NutterButterGradTrip_Day2-35.jpg" width="480" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">I love how they had keys instead of cards!</td></tr></tbody></table><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">We had breakfast at the scary hotel and then headed to make our reservation to drive up to the top of Cadillac Mountain in Acadia National Park. The morning was even foggier than yesterday and I was concerned we would be leaving Acadia without the great views. We drove to the top and decided to give it a bit of time to see if it had cleared. The summit was super windy so I was hopeful (and sending up prayers) that the fog would lift. In the meantime, we walked some trails and search for the summit marker. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg6vknrkPuFLTYdyRXvfwnGkDR7J7EYG8JfbG-yg05LhL2BaySFzyyyX7cJtsaOk_uwg0otD4XyJ4bd7qQQROfAmfWm5RHqzx5wRrsrNW6k5c5AKjscWJ72xIVkZXyJ2uW7YA8PHS4DdAFh-9gKKDL668hi5k5FP_69cpAXUNs54MRHm31_LpRH_wztNg/s6240/NutterButterGradTrip_Day2-11.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em;

They get to go someplace new and exciting and make fun memories as well! For high school graduation, it's a domestic trip. For college, it's an international one! Since our youngest one-of-three graduated from high school this year, it was our Nutter Butter's turn!</p><p>Her trip technically began yesterday. My guy left early Sunday morning to start driving to Providence, Rhode Island to meet us yesterday evening at the airport! Since CJ and I had just come off of a week of camp and hence sleep deprivation, I secured a sweet, super cheap price for airline tickets for the girls and me which ended up being free since I used credit card points and we got some extra time at home before flying out Sunday evening!</p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi_BCQbUEuSgb35-eY1ram2uhckq4USaFqMGP4CKy8zwqJWWY-qsTvmBXqwneymlhuSdR5c4_wR4_JZqF_YkKS-hoBWycSxJ65j7iiUVsA8CMqaqYB1crdOpvKpEIi0raN9YhhwLL0Vl0s3YWEbP7pfjqD03tr8-VXwiiooSOjm7bj0PbTtEjEpctf6-w/s4032/NutterButterGradTrip_Day1-1.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="4032" data-original-width="3024" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi_BCQbUEuSgb35-eY1ram2uhckq4USaFqMGP4CKy8zwqJWWY-qsTvmBXqwneymlhuSdR5c4_wR4_JZqF_YkKS-hoBWycSxJ65j7iiUVsA8CMqaqYB1crdOpvKpEIi0raN9YhhwLL0Vl0s3YWEbP7pfjqD03tr8-VXwiiooSOjm7bj0PbTtEjEpctf6-w/w480-h640/NutterButterGradTrip_Day1-1.jpg" width="480" /></a></div><br /><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj11aMtDZDs1rlRw1kfsbeyvBLjRwC2KcvkVtLe_BAyw2g5ShwfGSL9SG1FhofbK4K5eKI0SbvSGJzRth6ITHeqZS6XOY1F_k10qPD8KLTRkmJmJWxlE9uB284kvGyhQIsu3CweeA4HQPE3I3hNFBLanDibKpx220NiCzub1uF46hKAxGbIxeaPAQdFcw/s4032/NutterButterGradTrip_Day1-2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" data-original-height="4032" data-original-width="3024" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj11aMtDZDs1rlRw1kfsbeyvBLjRwC2KcvkVtLe_BAyw2g5ShwfGSL9SG1FhofbK4K5eKI0SbvSGJzRth6ITHeqZS6XOY1F_k10qPD8KLTRkmJmJWxlE9uB284kvGyhQIsu3CweeA4HQPE3I3hNFBLanDibKpx220NiCzub1uF46hKAxGbIxeaPAQdFcw/w480-h640/NutterButterGradTrip_Day1-2.jpg" width="480" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">Excited to see a GE Engine on our plane and find out that it was likely built in Chris' facility!</td></tr></tbody></table><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhLVk0aST8IghPMmWBkF-lynuyzJ-WPcALi9rNlQfoTmrqOxc_8ogilXvx0NHRW0fbcSIjkd7g_qGD2wrPG9QRRlsvtvDsdPnrh9UpX58vzadRRm4sepdzfm4WF_S1LsezkD_JPhvNYPLzjmYgs-MpKfyKBI3OmBEAbn2RzGIvmtSRt7zdl0EvrfmCYCg/s4032/NutterButterGradTrip_Day1-3.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="4032" data-original-width="3024" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhLVk0aST8IghPMmWBkF-lynuyzJ-WPcALi9rNlQfoTmrqOxc_8ogilXvx0NHRW0fbcSIjkd7g_qGD2wrPG9QRRlsvtvDsdPnrh9UpX58vzadRRm4sepdzfm4WF_S1LsezkD_JPhvNYPLzjmYgs-MpKfyKBI3OmBEAbn2RzGIvmtSRt7zdl0EvrfmCYCg/w480-h640/NutterButterGradTrip_Day1-3.jpg" width="480" /></a></div><div><br /></div>We arrived in Providence, grabbed a quick bite to eat and headed to Portland, Maine for the night. This morning we got up EARLY and headed farther north to Acadia National Park to start with Schoodic Point. On the way there, we stopped to snap a few pics as we crossed the Penobscot River. Suddenly, there was a really cool bridge in the middle of nowhere so it seemed like a photo op!

It's an area of rocks that contains a cave, of sorts, that when the water comes in, it makes a sound like thunder. The girls said they heard faint thunder, but Chris and I did not. I think our timing was off. You can only hear it at certain times and it depends entirely on the tide coming in and out. It was a fun try and some more rock climbing and waves crashing and of course, the traditional National Park leap!</div><div><br /></div><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto;

We found a tiny shop owned by a woman who either handmade or designed everything in the shop. I selected a wrap skirt with Spanish flair for my Nutter Butter and Audrey found some very intricately beaded earrings. The shop was a good find. And in the back of the shop was this winding staircase that I had to snap a photo of! We then made our way down to Placa de Catalunya which was a central square that housed several fountains and historical sculptures as well as a ton of pigeons and one crazy pigeon lady that was allowing pigeons to land on her arms! I didn't get a photo of her but it was a little much!</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjho4RQa6b_M-T8AhLXFvsNjOn5uqjs16y0MqKO8GDoUb_387pRjR7Mgn6hnlfsSNox_5XhfqmtS29LfTV2yGs3nhhd-hu6KXFvoeZ2diZkysFfYDNOB1glVUwXMu_uOO7YtAJc30OWvy4GbLJGCv6vyRIGUxK-en_rJ_uHFwDkhUs6Z894GJ0Wo6988w/s3801/Spain%20-%20Day%206%20and%207-3.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="3801" data-original-width="2851" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjho4RQa6b_M-T8AhLXFvsNjOn5uqjs16y0MqKO8GDoUb_387pRjR7Mgn6hnlfsSNox_5XhfqmtS29LfTV2yGs3nhhd-hu6KXFvoeZ2diZkysFfYDNOB1glVUwXMu_uOO7YtAJc30OWvy4GbLJGCv6vyRIGUxK-en_rJ_uHFwDkhUs6Z894GJ0Wo6988w/w480-h640/Spain%20-%20Day%206%20and%207-3.jpg" width="480" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhJ302ziGu9FjPnh8T5KxMN17Ffdw5fyIrneF0EngWHB-_8C8LihxMTBIHF3xM4ll7ImiN7QmwI1wsC-EuNQiJ83shx68b56lLC83Fw8zLFHfRtQtjKsLD7bZnHUvDig_iL4-8w79k70UvIR4nlUFHKsQRbAb2h0xhF1JcbwU9ooz5m-xqwDSE79bO2SQ/s4032/Spain%20-%20Day%206%20and%207-4.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="3024" data-original-width="4032" height="480" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhJ302ziGu9FjPnh8T5KxMN17Ffdw5fyIrneF0EngWHB-_8C8LihxMTBIHF3xM4ll7ImiN7QmwI1wsC-EuNQiJ83shx68b56lLC83Fw8zLFHfRtQtjKsLD7bZnHUvDig_iL4-8w79k70UvIR4nlUFHKsQRbAb2h0xhF1JcbwU9ooz5m-xqwDSE79bO2SQ/w640-h480/Spain%20-%20Day%206%20and%207-4.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi4e728ysAZXXyAsbuScPgIIWLMDfQaYlTMsEuErD-4JfYyjuXG0lShcYhhDo7QlCaGUOmkp_U0WXFr-dmkCsJT3f5E054eKJbK5b-x2z0aqrjtuvXv3xQoHffC39UBOKSvim0q5vDCAS0JEE_dhWrS12vnjnxSKasByeGktPuqLk25m2sCpIJeo3sHLQ/s4032/Spain%20-%20Day%206%20and%207-85.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="3024" data-original-width="4032" height="480" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi4e728ysAZXXyAsbuScPgIIWLMDfQaYlTMsEuErD-4JfYyjuXG0lShcYhhDo7QlCaGUOmkp_U0WXFr-dmkCsJT3f5E054eKJbK5b-x2z0aqrjtuvXv3xQoHffC39UBOKSvim0q5vDCAS0JEE_dhWrS12vnjnxSKasByeGktPuqLk25m2sCpIJeo3sHLQ/w640-h480/Spain%20-%20Day%206%20and%207-85.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">We continued meandering through narrow streets. Apparently we found the street with all of the vintage clothing shops. There are little shops everywhere with people living in the floors above. Almost every building here looks historical and they are just so beautiful. I guess if you grow up around it, you get used to it and maybe take it for granted. But I just kept being surprised by all of the beautiful architecture.</div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhPT8zjM-Y3Lv6Ixy5t-XjFSje1bV33JP3ZBBcp5cArJsf-H3t118kX9o5wB1ob5Z2WjVCuu_v0fgichfyix1ItWE4UCrzDlpYPT2RH0HYkGMmpstcrUgxLkp9MYb7wtQ3yjxW7eI7RqJ1Pwy2R0jUfmLvIIHwhsb9-en0ni0D0Qczcj_9aqGbgUMCNLQ/s4032/Spain%20-%20Day%206%20and%207-5.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="4032" data-original-width="3024" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhPT8zjM-Y3Lv6Ixy5t-XjFSje1bV33JP3ZBBcp5cArJsf-H3t118kX9o5wB1ob5Z2WjVCuu_v0fgichfyix1ItWE4UCrzDlpYPT2RH0HYkGMmpstcrUgxLkp9MYb7wtQ3yjxW7eI7RqJ1Pwy2R0jUfmLvIIHwhsb9-en0ni0D0Qczcj_9aqGbgUMCNLQ/w480-h640/Spain%20-%20Day%206%20and%207-5.jpg" width="480" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgyvbo1cANzridFiuVelHv46dn6ehuwWJR-TU25fwTBIo0kzmNDClV_vTtO3LSGH8univiqEpMLiVXXXhDRyNS6kUmRXod6Mj-sLbsCgARc4ewjBoGGuTvCtPvdnykn79ngPkxuGyakB-_gzzS16AQYqYgWRWBnX0tHK-sx5ri3hiStcXGe98H06Ifh7Q/s3145/Spain%20-%20Day%206%20and%207-6.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="3145" data-original-width="2359" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgyvbo1cANzridFiuVelHv46dn6ehuwWJR-TU25fwTBIo0kzmNDClV_vTtO3LSGH8univiqEpMLiVXXXhDRyNS6kUmRXod6Mj-sLbsCgARc4ewjBoGGuTvCtPvdnykn79ngPkxuGyakB-_gzzS16AQYqYgWRWBnX0tHK-sx5ri3hiStcXGe98H06Ifh7Q/w480-h640/Spain%20-%20Day%206%20and%207-6.jpg" width="480" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">It was time to head back to our apartment to prep for our Go Car tour. Audrey had seen these little yellow cars zipping down the street the day before and instantly wanted to try it. Yes, it is definitely a tourist trap, but honestly, it sounded fun. So we called them up and asked what was involved or required and booked the tour. Y'all, I seriously can not believe we were allowed to do this. I am just going to say that no large city in America would have allowed this! We arrived, showed them our driver's license, signed a waiver because it wasn't an international license, went through a tutorial on the little electric scooter cars and were allowed to take off... for 3 hours! On the city street of Barcelona!!</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjTXOMAjhPTd4LRU1KPlCw6Zc2yWtwfcnN01JHohStjETTOM-PkY7AnnlvClxlm1QqxH5oNXAVVjepIV491a0ueSKqVfLAnsbtdyReLKFGpFQHU6ptFbTvllciwly2cF1dJVFAjrZspL_vlYOFvlC_a6mgb_ESLKgjMKsEcrn3Y8ojGJxbrRo0P2qfqIw/s4032/Spain%20-%20Day%206%20and%207-100.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="4032" data-original-width="3024" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjTXOMAjhPTd4LRU1KPlCw6Zc2yWtwfcnN01JHohStjETTOM-PkY7AnnlvClxlm1QqxH5oNXAVVjepIV491a0ueSKqVfLAnsbtdyReLKFGpFQHU6ptFbTvllciwly2cF1dJVFAjrZspL_vlYOFvlC_a6mgb_ESLKgjMKsEcrn3Y8ojGJxbrRo0P2qfqIw/w480-h640/Spain%20-%20Day%206%20and%207-100.jpg" width="480" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjL4HEOycKfrusurmv9KDi1VbBBBQH8AzmYcSXzHCQvNjN9NCPkIqzep7cD2JPbYVpfq25vZG-YJ9YrD1jcAkIEzknSFY_Cdz1CmGC0vlCSbEd74fQHjibbTEu_R3ktZUH_UFr1FN4IuBmNjY1BcAAxnpqvbEGCE5xAG266QQKiYLf7chb_fTlvKyCmaA/s3088/Spain%20-%20Day%206%20and%207-99.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="3088" data-original-width="2316" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjL4HEOycKfrusurmv9KDi1VbBBBQH8AzmYcSXzHCQvNjN9NCPkIqzep7cD2JPbYVpfq25vZG-YJ9YrD1jcAkIEzknSFY_Cdz1CmGC0vlCSbEd74fQHjibbTEu_R3ktZUH_UFr1FN4IuBmNjY1BcAAxnpqvbEGCE5xAG266QQKiYLf7chb_fTlvKyCmaA/w480-h640/Spain%20-%20Day%206%20and%207-99.jpg" width="480" /></a></div><br /><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhv4o3uGvPDWfGHDr3vblI7OV-XvXgo_irYUG2lzMBpeDkfQ_nZLbOAQx_IH3k9Y1OwNL7WbRQvrH0qe4QF_bH1vIHTTYZ8leiW9FdxQgQ_RULPpv88aGWA_gnL4Qc2TP13GSsgeuRdfHONhpCqjarU8o27OaHUv63XyjSPkms0BtXUoGuEi7HCtRPFng/s6240/Spain%20-%20Day%206%20and%207-22.jpg" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" data-original-height="4160" data-original-width="6240" height="426" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhv4o3uGvPDWfGHDr3vblI7OV-XvXgo_irYUG2lzMBpeDkfQ_nZLbOAQx_IH3k9Y1OwNL7WbRQvrH0qe4QF_bH1vIHTTYZ8leiW9FdxQgQ_RULPpv88aGWA_gnL4Qc2TP13GSsgeuRdfHONhpCqjarU8o27OaHUv63XyjSPkms0BtXUoGuEi7HCtRPFng/w640-h426/Spain%20-%20Day%206%20and%207-22.jpg" width="640" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">Poor guy - he did not have enough room for his long legs!!</td></tr></tbody></table><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjFOijgsrl8t2fGYgyMNeNSXK4x8dHIz1x7aPJmxV-2wQinYnP5JoY9sawUgs0FRXd6jPkUl56sOpDiJ9wQNwQWK-cQHiPpzItM-_mKIjCFdXVjkJ_z7orGAO5MNdw8PqNgqmIS50k1OludC7Q0ze55cHh9cxSawNkjjuLUAG3Ej3gYfkgVwqLfRoT7lw/s6240/Spain%20-%20Day%206%20and%207-23.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="4160" data-original-width="6240" height="426" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjFOijgsrl8t2fGYgyMNeNSXK4x8dHIz1x7aPJmxV-2wQinYnP5JoY9sawUgs0FRXd6jPkUl56sOpDiJ9wQNwQWK-cQHiPpzItM-_mKIjCFdXVjkJ_z7orGAO5MNdw8PqNgqmIS50k1OludC7Q0ze55cHh9cxSawNkjjuLUAG3Ej3gYfkgVwqLfRoT7lw/w640-h426/Spain%20-%20Day%206%20and%207-23.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Each car is a GPS guided tour. You follow the mapped out route on the GPS screen of the car just like in a normal size car and when you pass certain landmarks, the recorded tour gives you facts and info about the place or building or city people and their histories. It gave a lot of great information and took us places that we hadn't thought of going. You could get out at any stop or didn't even have to follow the tour at all if you didn't want to! Overall, it was incredibly fun and adventurous (I was in the car with Audrey behind the wheel!!) as well as informative! Well worth it, even if we did play the part of crazy turistas!</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><iframe allowfullscreen="" class="BLOG_video_class" height="316" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/8lPtRtGhXm8" width="478" youtube-src-id="8lPtRtGhXm8"></iframe></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Some sites from our Go Car Tour...</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgXomlfVmTSqCGR7e98_uLxkb6rql0VpBwqrF_QO5q1kSJOuppkm6GD5aeze8GCRUWhDoNal5k7JfmLL209TLdq3YBmcMHoHHQJ55kotHYhmKp12hvNLsVDQgjmFw5DMED1GjYDVG2qZVDmJMrIP_4jr7ivYN3vkveglElrJu_fdZ-Ea23gFjdZ-cbDPA/s4032/Spain%20-%20Day%206%20and%207-7.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="3024" data-original-width="4032" height="480" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgXomlfVmTSqCGR7e98_uLxkb6rql0VpBwqrF_QO5q1kSJOuppkm6GD5aeze8GCRUWhDoNal5k7JfmLL209TLdq3YBmcMHoHHQJ55kotHYhmKp12hvNLsVDQgjmFw5DMED1GjYDVG2qZVDmJMrIP_4jr7ivYN3vkveglElrJu_fdZ-Ea23gFjdZ-cbDPA/w640-h480/Spain%20-%20Day%206%20and%207-7.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgeNuGB-_-dpPDMqFz6L9pZ0GPLJP5lDtGp7oOLbnbrGQ7Y2eTYRkCS89zHrXrLrrsGTXd7Ye9c8qodz6rSqBvEQm_z2iaRR8st6SSG65SxmXmR1dg4kCQDwLsQ5s6FtGpCRo8lnN96myAooqJ1NhkpziUe5HXeB_ck7L6rKByZ4jfEUYfjQH03ZpjoSw/s2863/Spain%20-%20Day%206%20and%207-18.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2147" data-original-width="2863" height="480" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgeNuGB-_-dpPDMqFz6L9pZ0GPLJP5lDtGp7oOLbnbrGQ7Y2eTYRkCS89zHrXrLrrsGTXd7Ye9c8qodz6rSqBvEQm_z2iaRR8st6SSG65SxmXmR1dg4kCQDwLsQ5s6FtGpCRo8lnN96myAooqJ1NhkpziUe5HXeB_ck7L6rKByZ4jfEUYfjQH03ZpjoSw/w640-h480/Spain%20-%20Day%206%20and%207-18.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgZpxqa5BGDCME1fezMZCuE-3IRrREtDO7nbdpbjF9NxAJBwUU0Kp0P3qDahSpZytC0O4LCKd3f6ycPFxp9PUQI20XFyzUIHYKJzJtuxFiipnTNvb4iIcsPuzl-Ax3Zn8jA-TKPoT5xbpwsCdAG2VX8lmF0Ly1H0fHdqfWxe3RZNZKTvzrr-E8sb1r4eA/s6240/Spain%20-%20Day%206%20and%207-19.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="4160" data-original-width="6240" height="426" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgZpxqa5BGDCME1fezMZCuE-3IRrREtDO7nbdpbjF9NxAJBwUU0Kp0P3qDahSpZytC0O4LCKd3f6ycPFxp9PUQI20XFyzUIHYKJzJtuxFiipnTNvb4iIcsPuzl-Ax3Zn8jA-TKPoT5xbpwsCdAG2VX8lmF0Ly1H0fHdqfWxe3RZNZKTvzrr-E8sb1r4eA/w640-h426/Spain%20-%20Day%206%20and%207-19.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><br /><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgosT1lcBlvSDoNs9lhEPiUyZXXvlWoRMAhWn0XNtYeVxrTaylJYIl2SN8NY6th-7e9CI4urJvGY8MGuiE3PLIuV4nIC5jlIXWt-uOq90XbraH5Ro54IHmqd3Wg3tyZXF8ie0ADsQsnkcz5uJR4-roiumVq4nR_GI0g3ag1uog_uZTcfpou9QWdfo_FJg/s6240/Spain%20-%20Day%206%20and%207-21.jpg" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" data-original-height="4160" data-original-width="6240" height="426" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgosT1lcBlvSDoNs9lhEPiUyZXXvlWoRMAhWn0XNtYeVxrTaylJYIl2SN8NY6th-7e9CI4urJvGY8MGuiE3PLIuV4nIC5jlIXWt-uOq90XbraH5Ro54IHmqd3Wg3tyZXF8ie0ADsQsnkcz5uJR4-roiumVq4nR_GI0g3ag1uog_uZTcfpou9QWdfo_FJg/w640-h426/Spain%20-%20Day%206%20and%207-21.jpg" width="640" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">These trees were everywhere.

But when I walked into this structure, my mouth dropped open and a giant lump caught in my throat and tears were close. I have no idea why! I can only explain that is was just that grand!

The interior median of the street is lined with local artist, local flower booths, chintzy souvenir stands and the like. At night, it seemed to turn into Canal St. in NYC with locals spreading blankets and selling fake purses. Also along the street is a local market filled with so much delicious looking food! We opted for some fresh watermelon and the covered strawberries!

We picked up a few gifts and I asked the shop owner how she came up with the name of the shop. She said, "I am Carolina and my son's name is Tomas Blue. So the shop is named after me and my son." Then she promptly added in her Spanish accent, without either Audrey or me saying a word, "I am not from North Carolina!" We laughed and said "Oh, but we are!!" She stated that she has so many Americans ask her the question that she Googled Carolina Blue. She then realized why so many Americans ask her about it! Finally, upon Carolina's recommendation and proclamation that they were the best croissants in the city, we walked across the street to Hoffman's to try them! They were in fact so incredibly good, that I didn't even snap a pic!!

I LOVE the beach but I don't love getting in the ocean. However, I was absolutely thrilled with the Mediterranean! The water was so incredibly clear that I could see to the bottom for a really long way out into the water. Wave were also minimal so if that's why you love the beach, then our location of the Mediterranean will disappoint; however, I was thrilled.

The host met us (which is very different in Europe - they show up to meet you, give you a very detailed tour of the place and explain all of the ins and outs). As he was explaining he said, "Oh, I am so sorry, but the air conditioner went out and the only thing I could do on such short notice was to have this ceiling fan installed." We were all dumbfounded. He did put a few oscillating fans around the place, but MAYBE he could have taken a few moments from fan shopping to let us know!! I mean it has been 100 degrees the past two days, literally. He looked at my face and said, "Are you okay? You look like it is not okay." So while I am typing this, I am very much regretting that I didn't say, "No, I am not okay. See you later." LOL I mean the place is very Spanish and it feels like we are living in small Spanish flat with character but seriously, I need air.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">Anyway, we thought, "It will cool down as it gets toward night," so we did some exploring along the streets and found a cute store which actually had the sunscreen we forgot to bring for the beach tomorrow.

In the winter of 2020, we bought flight tickets to Spain for our oldest one-of-three as a surprise for her college graduation in May of 2020. We picked Spain because she minored in Spanish in college. Well, March rolled in and the world shut down. We thought, we'll still go; no big deal; it can't last that long. WRONG!</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">It's two years later and FINALLY, we are in Spain! We left North Carolina on Monday and headed north to fly out of Newark. We left very late Monday night - almost Tuesday - and arrived in Barcelona, Spain Tuesday afternoon via a stop in Lisbon, Portugal. We had dinner Tuesday evening but reserved sight seeing until Wednesday. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">Our first stop was the Barcelona Cathedral. The current standing cathedral was building over some existing churches with the original consecrated in 1058. This building's construction began in 1298 and was completed in 1417 with the attached cloister being completed in 1448. Currently the spires are undergoing some renovation so there's not a great view of the exterior but trust me, it's beautiful. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;

Once settled in to our Airbnb, Audrey and I headed to the Biblioteca Nacional de Espana - AKA the National Library of Spain. My doodlebug planned this stop just for me!! (FYI - she was in charge of planning this whole trip.) The library was beautiful, of course, and we were treated not only to some gorgeous books in the Incunabula Exhibition celebrating 550 years of the printing press in Spain but also to an exhibition of Kaulak's work - a Spanish photographer!

It was pretty plain to look at on the outside, but the interior has such old world charm - beams in the ceiling; narrow, maze-like staircases and great waiters! Also, Ernest Hemingway has eaten there! The food was classic old world Spain, not a lot of flair. It was good - our plates consisted of suckling pig, lamb and roasted chicken.

It was ginormous - just under 1.5 million square feet! It has almost 3500 rooms!! The floors were absolutely amazing - such intricately detailed marble. Few rooms allowed photos though so not much to share. Oddly though, Audrey was shopping on Can Via again this evening and the King came down the street!!

So, in August 2020, in the middle of a world-wide pandemic, we moved her to New York City. I know what you're thinking - the shopping, the museums, Central Park, the glamour. Nope! The city that never sleeps was taking a nap. Shopping was minimal, subways operated only at certain times, and museums were closed. The restaurants that had started to open were just serving take-out and some occasional outdoor dining. Leaving her on her apartment stoop that August afternoon was so, so hard. The car ride home was tearful.</span></div><div style="text-align: start;"><span style="font-family: verdana;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: start;"><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEh1dEH_lcj14d_sTTfnWvpG7UEoxYFdUivOWOytRxWxOFNCfFCLYxSO0nwkgv8WhCRANlDm6ncN6SXXV-ghQMVFzxsoR5SKnZWwuemFz8Yc9DEd46cqvxX2crToCe4hswxMdpOMcgeQdj7zFqMqrPFdBwfE46qvI3qwh_USxxzjkna8-oCOFuNbAYrWhA=s2048" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1365" data-original-width="2048" height="426" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEh1dEH_lcj14d_sTTfnWvpG7UEoxYFdUivOWOytRxWxOFNCfFCLYxSO0nwkgv8WhCRANlDm6ncN6SXXV-ghQMVFzxsoR5SKnZWwuemFz8Yc9DEd46cqvxX2crToCe4hswxMdpOMcgeQdj7zFqMqrPFdBwfE46qvI3qwh_USxxzjkna8-oCOFuNbAYrWhA=w640-h426" width="640" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">Apartment Rooftop</td></tr></tbody></table><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEhhKkDX0O7JSya4oXNNNUj0sanicMZesz534beP9zurqhoEgeG-Mo487L1ZZMv4KWp6rqHphxR73bTXXs1hRugppVot0TpA_CnsYRPJ3BKfGTBQ3tq1NZOLuMiWKyhAif3Ra8L6YArQkwcMMIkjxr8b-PADyuYpmxlzIxuaw1S77aYiBf17Gh_gxwvQIQ=s2048" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1365" data-original-width="2048" height="426" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEhhKkDX0O7JSya4oXNNNUj0sanicMZesz534beP9zurqhoEgeG-Mo487L1ZZMv4KWp6rqHphxR73bTXXs1hRugppVot0TpA_CnsYRPJ3BKfGTBQ3tq1NZOLuMiWKyhAif3Ra8L6YArQkwcMMIkjxr8b-PADyuYpmxlzIxuaw1S77aYiBf17Gh_gxwvQIQ=w640-h426" width="640" /></a></div><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">Soon after moving to NYC, her AmeriCorp organization announced that she would be an entirely virtual worker. The work she had planned to do in a residential foster facility for children turned into busywork and spreadsheets on her computer in her 10 x 10 bedroom in her 4th floor walk up apartment. She began working a part-time job at a restaurant on the weekends for some interaction and let's face it, money. After all, that 10 x 10 bedroom in NYC was ridiculously expensive. Soon though, the spreadsheets and isolation took their toll. So, in December 2020, she decided to look for another job. She didn't want to give up on NYC yet.</span></div><div style="text-align: start;"><span style="font-family: verdana;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: start;"><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEi5draz-h2QqZ9lHCV-66oHiTOIjLnyu0dM6IZQlDcBWFc3NhTmXyjcB-BCAxkRu5aKJYA3PmyUwrn2l1GtJ4VeBunO8mqyFdETE1SMTnIDyXUr9n6zPpZlVhHaUt5FcJQp5ckQA9_DAjQe65MTnywxdGRLVmRnUAG4OIHqVMp2SmkBfXO2Dk5Dmh6_2g=s2048" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1365" data-original-width="2048" height="426" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEi5draz-h2QqZ9lHCV-66oHiTOIjLnyu0dM6IZQlDcBWFc3NhTmXyjcB-BCAxkRu5aKJYA3PmyUwrn2l1GtJ4VeBunO8mqyFdETE1SMTnIDyXUr9n6zPpZlVhHaUt5FcJQp5ckQA9_DAjQe65MTnywxdGRLVmRnUAG4OIHqVMp2SmkBfXO2Dk5Dmh6_2g=w640-h426" width="640" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">1st Ave - outside her apartment</td></tr></tbody></table><br /><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEi6p6WIhGYRjQ41RrRGwkOVcVk--PXHuwuakwM14uW2MWRa2vo3B_pu2ua0Z0VUzy_dJVTPAchMAisczTaPdu97yPDSTa-By0CKCYS3gLbIYLA6ZHknQZNkG8VIJmYfM6LnBBaD4nAettKc0HftnNQx9tUs80Bktx3j6IIDJ147d2WceYUagZNYaNn-Tw=s2048" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1365" data-original-width="2048" height="426" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEi6p6WIhGYRjQ41RrRGwkOVcVk--PXHuwuakwM14uW2MWRa2vo3B_pu2ua0Z0VUzy_dJVTPAchMAisczTaPdu97yPDSTa-By0CKCYS3gLbIYLA6ZHknQZNkG8VIJmYfM6LnBBaD4nAettKc0HftnNQx9tUs80Bktx3j6IIDJ147d2WceYUagZNYaNn-Tw=w640-h426" width="640" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">Grand Central</td></tr></tbody></table><span style="font-family: verdana;"><br /></span></div><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEhm204fCqLyNR_mt7J46tpJSt5eDvtn9aQ4xOBgsFxyYuPJ4wcdJrUqIOAV35kn6tj6XEPdfqacvQ7A_WxVmD7Nyw1JERH3YT08rqATtzOudL5d9W4eHkn-warc6ogA9254_GaK1G8-QoXz4PMxdAg3I76qlaPjR9SxIVWqzP1jDEvqhgjIoZFcRdflkQ=s2048" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1365" data-original-width="2048" height="426" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEhm204fCqLyNR_mt7J46tpJSt5eDvtn9aQ4xOBgsFxyYuPJ4wcdJrUqIOAV35kn6tj6XEPdfqacvQ7A_WxVmD7Nyw1JERH3YT08rqATtzOudL5d9W4eHkn-warc6ogA9254_GaK1G8-QoXz4PMxdAg3I76qlaPjR9SxIVWqzP1jDEvqhgjIoZFcRdflkQ=w640-h426" width="640" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">103 St Subway Stop</td></tr></tbody></table><div style="text-align: start;"><span style="font-family: verdana;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">Since January of 2021, she has mostly worked for a professional dog walking service.

And every time, I have seen more confidence in her as she navigates us through the city. She's a very competent subway traveler and bargain finder. She has lived in two different apartments with roommates that she had never met before. She has learned a great deal about her finances, or lack there of! :-) She has experienced art and people (good and bad) and food and culture and history and success and loss. My oldest-one-of-three is great in a crisis!! Just not when it is her crisis, and she has even had to handle a few of those among the giantness of NYC. Through all of the good, the bad, the beautiful and the ugly, with each step, she has become a stronger advocate for herself, learned what is truly important to her, and made memories that will last forever. I don't know that I could have done the same at her age. She is brave!</span></div><div style="text-align: start;"><span style="font-family: verdana;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: start;"><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto;

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">I woke up a little earlier than the boys today and headed to the small downtown area of Estes Park, Colorado. It's a quaint town but not at all quiet! It's definitely a busy and popular vacation spot. As I walked along the sidewalk, I thought to myself, "This town smells like candy!" Then I saw this amazing window!!</span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Last year, we just drove through Estes Park and didn't get to stop. So, this morning, I walked the main street with camera in hand and did a little shopping as well. I even spotted the historical Stanley Hotel - set of The Shining!</span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">When the guys were ready, we grabbed some sandwiches for later and headed to our 11:00 appointment to pick up our gear for today's adventure - riding trails in the Rocky Mountains! My Guy couldn't get out of Estes and to the mountain soon enough! The busyness and the crowded nature of the place made him quickly determine that he would be perfectly fine never coming back! </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">When we got to the trails, the Backbone Adventure folks gave us the little ATV schooling and a trail map then we were off. The boys had 4 wheelers and Chris and I shared a two-seater UTV. It wasn't very long before I decided that if I had to spend the next 3 hours in that UTV, I was going to be one unhappy momma. And you know what they say about keeping mom happy! The ride was so jerky and rattly and unpleasant. I was wondering how folks found this fun! My guy did remark that he wasn't sure why it was surging forward like it was. So, when the slight rain started, I said - take me to the car! I was perfectly content to sit and listen to my audiobook rather than get whiplash. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">We pulled in to the starting area and one of Backbone folks instantly walked up to us and said, "Sounds like it's not working for you - let's give you another one!" Soooooooooooo much better!!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">So we rode trails for the next 2 1/2 hours - zipping through straight stretches, zooming around some curves and climbing over rocks. Toward the end, the boys wanted to switch so I actually got to be more than just a sidekick! My Guy and I took the 4 wheelers for a bit and the boys took the UTV. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">The boys wore their UNCW shirts today and amazingly, just as we pulled over to a spot to take a photo, a group in other UTV stopped and said, "Hey UNCW! I graduated from there!" Small world!!</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Grimaldi's Pizzeria in downtown Denver was our selection and it proved to be a good one! Great service, fantastic pizza, outdoor patio (a plus in my book!) - overall great!! AND they had Oreo cheesecake - my fav - so I took a slice to go! Cheesecake research!!</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">We left our hotel bright and early to make our 8:30 appointment at AVA Adventures! We had zip lining scheduled for the morning and white water rafting for the afternoon. Up until two weeks ago, I only knew about the white water rafting. My guy and my not-so-little guy were keeping a surprise from me - zip lining!! I have said for some time now that I really wanted to zip line. Let's just say that AVA did NOT disappoint! </span></div>

<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">We accomplished six different ziplines nestled in a small Colorado town - really in the middle of nowhere, it seemed. The longest zipline was a 1/4 of mile long and was a double line so we got to race with a partner. My guy and I raced and the boys, of course, raced each other. Who doesn't love a little competition on the zipline?</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">At each of our zipline launches, AVA had a little sign with historical information about the area. The closest town is Leadville. We passed through the adorable downtown on our way. It is so named for its incredible mining history. It is the town in Colorado that mined the largest amount of gold during the gold rush!</span></div>

We had a great chicken fajita meal complete with rice and black beans and toppings - all cooked in the outdoors under a canopy.

<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">After a relaxing lunch break, we suited up and prepared for our white water rafting expedition. Honestly, last night after watching the required safety video, I told my guy that I very likely was going to back out of the white water rafting portion of our day! I wasn't sure I could do it, especially when I found out we were doing Class IV rapids. I debated and listened to folks have conversations about rafting and decided I would do it. I am soooo glad I did! We had a great time!</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">Our rafting guides, Blake and Paul, were so encouraging and gave us specific and clear instructions. We all survived. We did have one man overboard - my guy. But he was quickly pulled back into the raft. And somehow, I have no idea how, I lost my paddle during that whole scare! The boys volunteered to be up front and take the brunt of the water, but we all walked away quite soaked. Along our 7 mile trip down the Arkansas River, I saw lots of smiles, heard loads of laughter and shrieks of excitement, and many memories were made! My not-so-little guy said at dinner that rafting has been his favorite thus far!</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Today's post should really be titled, The Road Less Traveled! Last year, wehen we visited Arches National Park, we attempted an off-road rail in our older Yukon XL - a trail to take us to Tower Arch. It started okay, seemed doable but adventurous. I mean after all, it was a 4 wheel drive. Then the road quickly went from mostly sand and a few rocks to huge boulders buried in the ground but protruding, A LOT! Needless to say, we turned around after a little "hang up" on one of them. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">So, in this trip, my not-so-little guy wanted to try again. This time we rented a jeep equipped to hopefully handle the trail. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Day 4 started early so we could head up to the top of Mesa Verde National Park for our 9:30 tour of Balcony House - an ancestral Pueblo cliff dwelling. It's about an 50 minute drive to the top of the park, but we arrived a little early.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">We had a fabulous park ranger as our tour guide - he gave tons of info, obviously loved his job, was super pleasant to be around and honestly, was one of the best tour guides I've had. These cliff dwelling are literally tucked away in the wall of a canyon. Our specific dwelling was in Soda Canyon. We had to take a small but paved trail to reach our starting point - the bottom of a 30 meter ladder. We had to climb that to reach the dwelling.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Balcony house is considered a medium sized dwelling - it had 40 rooms. Each has a specific purpose from fire rooms to heat the dwelling in the winter, to smoke house rooms to preserve meet, to sleeping rooms to kivas and plazas. Balcony House also contained two rather small tunnels that we had to crawl through. A little tight... one of the times it paid to be short! We learned about their daily life, how the dwelling were likely made, their customs all the while touring a small alcove in the side of a canyon wall hundreds of feet in the air! We all survived without falling into the canyon so it was a successful tour!</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">We left our New
Mexico pit stop and headed toward Colorado and really, the idea that prompted
this senior trip for my not-so-little guy. Last year when our family came out
west, he wanted to visit Mesa Verde National Park and see the Pueblo Cliff
Dwellings. We just couldn’t fit it into our trip timeline last year so the idea
of coming back west and taking in that park really prompted this whole trip!<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">We drove to the top
of the park and toured around the Chapin Mesa area. This is where we got our
first glimpse of the cliff dwellings. Literally, ancestral Pueblo build their homes among recessed areas of canyon walls. I am still trying to wrap my head
around their choice. I mean, y’all, they were climbing up and down a cliff face
to get their home. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

guy and I went star gazing! The boys weren’t interested. Their definite loss!!
We are here during the new moon which is awesome in an area already known as
one of the darkest areas in the United States. No moon and little light
pollution equals great astrophotography!!! Soooooo many stars! I may force the boys to go tomorrow tonight if it's clear!!<o:p></o:p></span></div>
