Grand Canyon
One of the perks of traveling to Arizona for work so often for a couple years? Trips to the Grand Canyon! I would drive from Phoenix to Flagstaff, and from Flagstaff to the South Rim of Grand Canyon…. There’s easy walking and hiking along the rim, with the expansive views of the Canyon around you.…

Capri, Italy
The Island of Capri is a ferry ride away from the seaside town of Sorrento on the Southern side of Italy where we stayed. We headed to the island bright and early on Monday with the sun just starting to warm the waters… We took a boat tour around the island and into the Blue Grotto, or Grotta…

Positano, Italy
Positano is full of breathtaking views, Mediterranean sea breezes, and stairs. Lots and lots of stairs. The bus that rides along the Amalfi coast can drops you off along the main road near the top of the town. Here you can see some amazing views from the high vantage point: I walked down and down and down…

Rome has everything from quiet gardens around the Villa Borghese… …and ancient ruins from the Roman Empire… …to modern iconic Italian vespas, political flags, accordions, music…. There are so many…

Sights and Sounds of Florence
I got to spend one Saturday in Florence, Italy – a city steeped in the history of art, music, politics, and Italian culture. In the pedestrian streets around Florence’s famous art galleries, every square foot is filled with musicians and souvenir reproductions of famous paintings for sale…. Walking through the city, there are pops of…
