So finally the long awaited post about the trip I took with my family and extended family.  Estelle, Imran, Georgia, Frank, Megan, my mom and of course my family went to Europe for a 10 day get away that had us fly into Rome.  While we’ve been there already it’s a beautiful city and we didn’t mind going there again.  While they did some touristy things, one of the days Maggie, Brandon and I went to one of the outlet malls so Maggie could shop.

We had dinner together as a group which was always great and little Georgia is super sweet, I miss very much seeing her on a daily basis.

On the 3rd day, we went to the port which was about an hour away from the city and got on Royal Caribbean’s Jewel of the Seas, it’s a mid sized boat and we all had balcony staterooms. Needless to say the Greek islands were beautiful and while I’m not religious, it’s about as close to paradise as I could imagine.

Enough talk, I think the pictures will say enough themselves and note there are a lot of them.

Unfortunately the last 20 or so pictures are actually from Santorini which was our first stop (went to Mykonos, Athens & the island Olympia is on).  There’s simply too much to sum up, it was a very rewarding vacation and one that I will cherish for the rest of my life.  Brandon was great, little Georgia, it couldn’t have gone better in my opinion…  To top things off we saw dolphins swim next to our boat on the last cruising day, it was absolutely amazing and I’m so thankful the people I love came with me on this wonderful adventure.
