This will be our last post *sniff sniff*. We are packing up our stuff (again) and about to head out on our long journey home! We are heading to Dusseldorf tonight and back to Vancouver for Wednesday morning :) I doubt that we will have Wifi anywhere between here and home so I thought I would wrap things up today.
Thanks to everyone who was following our blog and I hope you all enjoyed reading it as much as I enjoyed writing it! Our 4 week European Adventure was just that - an adventure!! It was super fun and we both had an amazing time!
Here are some of our favorites!
Taryn's Fav Hotel: Hotel Alexis in Rome - super big room and super big shared bathroom!
Brad's Fav Hotel: Hotel Mercurio in Venice - not having to share a bathroom!
Taryn's Fav Moment: Going up the Eiffel Tower! It was such a process getting up there and then we got up to the top for the perfect time! Sunset! It was great!
Brad's Fav Moment: Spending time with Uncle Rossano in Pescina but especially the breakfast with him before we left for Scanno
Taryn's Fav City: CAN'T CHOOSE!!! But not Venice... I wasn't a fan.
Brad's Fav City: Italian cities (minus Venice) for the Food, Paris for the sights, London for the English speaking
Taryn's Least Fav Moment: When I realized that I didn't have my passport :( followed closely by walking through Venice at 2am....
Brad's Least Fav Moment: Trying to drive to Marco Polo Airport at midnight on Italian backroads so that we could return the car on time.
Taryn's Funniest Moment: The disorganization of most of Italy - especially the Ciampino Airport bus!
Brad's Funniest Moment: Uncle Rossano trying to explain why we aren't married to the Italian relatives!
Taryn's Fav Attraction: Tower of London because I super enjoyed the Yeoman tour and it was one of the first things that we saw.
Brad's Fav Attraction: "Because I have already done everything, I think it would have to be driving on the Italian highways. It's something few people get to do and the Italian countryside is very beautiful... in the day light"
Most Overrated attraction: Oxford Street in London. Both of us agree... total waste of time!! Nothing gained culturally or otherwise. Also, the food in Venice was overrated.
Something that we wanted to do but didn't get to:
Taryn: Swim in the Mediterranean
Brad: See the Macario Brother's house in Scanno
Overall we had an AWESOME trip (despite bad-ness in the last couple of days). It was great and I can't wait to come back! Thanks SO MUCH to Iain for letting us stay at his place and thanks to his flat-mates for putting up with us :D
