Bringing the World to You
So when we left off last post, Amanda and I were settling in for our daily siesta. Fast forward to about 7:30 pm, we wake up and head out for a sunset dinner. Since our hotel was on the southern most tip of the island, we walked along the coast until we found a suitable … Continue reading Venezia | Venice at Night
Once the Rainy Venice became Sunny Venice, that's when the fun really began for me. I had never seen such amazing color contrast! The pictures I was taking were amazing. So naturally, we went back to all the sites we had already seen. I snapped away at every sunny Venice scene I saw. The Bridge of … Continue reading Venezia | Bright and Sunny Venice
When I went to Washington D.C. for the first time Spring 2018, it was definitely one for the books. We only paid just shy of $350 for our hostel. And, yeah, I know that a bit much for 2 people for 3 nights, especially to be "on a budget," but we got a private room, … Continue reading Tips and Tricks | Washington D.C. on a Budget

On our vacation to Washington D.C. in April of 2018, we saw many monuments and memorials. D.C. is rich with architecture and design. It's a gorgeous city, and a a popular tourist destination. Since it is the capital of the United States, this is no surprise. We all know the famous ones: The Washington Monument, The White House, The Lincoln Memorial, The Jefferson Memorial, etc. But there are countless more memorials that are lesser known, but that doesn't mean they aren't just as important and beautiful. One of the ones that really impressed me was the Franklin Delano Roosevelt Memorial, located about midway along the Tidal Basin between The Jefferson Memorial and the Martin Luther King, Jr. Memorial.
The second morning was just as perfect as our first morning. We had a tour of St. Louis #1 with the French Quarter Phantoms at 11 am. We met again at the iconic Voodoo Lounge and walked to the cemetery...
When I told my girlfriend that for her birthday, I was going to take us to New Orleans, she was excited. The French Quarter, Bourbon Street, Steamboats, and Ghost Tours filled her imagination as I told her that I was going to plan the entire thing for her, and that she didn't have to worry about any of it. I would say about a month and a half later, we set out to Louisiana.
