  • Monaco

    20 Mayıs 2017, Monako ⋅ ☀️ 20 °C

    After a day exploring Nice we took a short trip back to the tiny country of Monaco, playground of the rich and famous! The scenic drive overlooking the Mediterranean are spectacular. While in Monaco we visited St Nicholas Cathedral, the Grand and Sun Casinos in Monte Carlo, and enjoyed some beautiful views over the harbour. We were also luck enough to visit Monaco one week before the Formula One came to town so we had a quick drive on the track and got a photo on the hairpin outside the Sun Casino :)Okumaya devam et

  • Jungfraujoch, Switzerland

    26 Mayıs 2017, İsviçre ⋅ ☀️ 5 °C

    Today bought the much anticipated visit to the ‘Top of Europe’, home of Europe’s highest railway station, which is covered in snow 365 days per year. Jungfraujoch did not disappoint! Lisa and I saw snow for the first time, made very poor miniature snow men, had a snowball fight, stacked it in the snow, and behaved like little kids sliding along the ice in the ice caves! The trip up on the train was unforgettable with incredible views of the Swiss Alps. This day will not be forgotten anytime soon!Okumaya devam et

  • Interlaken, Switzerland

    26 Mayıs 2017, İsviçre ⋅ ☀️ 24 °C

    Arriving back at the bottom of the mountains in the late afternoon we headed straight in to Interlaken for a couple of wines. We couldn’t resist going down to the river’s edge to the check out the ice cold, crystal clear water made up of the ice melt from the mountains above Interlaken. Interlaken itself was representative of our general experience in Switzerland - beautiful scenery, clean cities, and friendly people. It’s no mystery why people are willing to pay high taxes to call this amazing country home! Cannot wait to visit again!Okumaya devam et

  • Vaduz, Liechtenstein

    27 Mayıs 2017, Lihtenştayn ⋅ ☀️ 21 °C

    Today we had a Lunch stopover in the capital of Liechtenstein including a trip up the hill to Vaduz Castle. After departing Vaduz we crossed the border back in to Germany for a sombre yet gripping visit to Dachau, Germany’s first concentration camp, which opened in 1933. The visit revealed the dark history of the area and provided an insight in to the atrocities of the holocaust and the hardship of so many of the Jewish people.Okumaya devam et

  • Munich, Germany

    27 Mayıs 2017, Almanya ⋅ ☀️ 26 °C

    We arrived in Munich with one thing on our mind, beer! After checking in to the hotel and taking the bus in to the centre, we had a walking tour of the city and headed to the famous Hoffbrau Beer Hall. The hall is as huge as the litre steins, and it was definitely entertaining watching Rachel finishing a beer bigger than her head!Okumaya devam et

  • Sankt Goar, Germany

    28 Mayıs 2017, Almanya ⋅ ⛅ 30 °C

    It was unfortunate not to spend a bit more time in Munich, but the Rhine Valley did not disappoint! The Rhine Valley is a well known region set along the Rhine River comprising numerous medieval castles, wineries and villages. When we arrived in Sankt Goar we visited the cuckoo clock shop which includes the largest free hanging cuckoo clock in the world! Next we took a cruise along the picturesque River Rhine which is lined with castles and hillside vineyards.Okumaya devam et

  • Paris, France

    30 Mayıs 2017, Fransa ⋅ ☁️ 17 °C

    Paris is an incredibly busy city, with heaps to see and do. The drivers here are absolutely insane, we were so glad Joshua was behind the wheel! We were up early today to make the best of our only full day in Paris and we had a very busy, yet very successful day. We beat the line-up for the Catacombs, before travelling to the top of the Montparnasse Tower to check out the views across Paris and also visited Les Invalides, the resting place of Napoleon Bonaparte.Okumaya devam et
