Wine Tasting and Lots of Pizza

     Aaron got off work at about 9am on Tuesday morning. He was super tired, but didn't want to waste any time sleeping. We were originally going to go to Padova, but Aaron had some things he had to take care of on post. We took Chrissy and Ryan with us and then took them to the mall. They found a bunch of great deals at H&M! After shopping for a couple hours, we went home so we could all get a nap. Chrissy watched Connor while Aaron, Ryan, and I took a nap. When we woke up, it was time to get ready for our wine and pizza tasting at Le Pignole Winery. We had been there once before in the winter and had the best time, so we knew we had to take Chrissy and Ryan.

Venice, Asiago, & Marostica with Chrissy & Ryan

    We have been having some major computer issues over here, so I am super late posting these next few blogs, however I really want to remember these moments, so better late then never. :)

    My sister-in-law, Chrissy, and her boyfriend, Ryan, came to visit us a couple weeks ago {7/12}.  We picked them up at the airport in the morning and then spent the rest of the day sightseeing in Venice.

Waiting for Auntie Sissy and Uncle Ryan to come. You can see them walking out the door in the picture on the right.

Eastern Mediterranean Cruise: Disembarkation In Venice

    Unfortunately it was time for our cruise to come to an end on Sunday June 28th. We had to be out of our room by 8, but weren't able to get off the ship until 10:20, so we stayed in our room until the last minute. We were able to see us port in Venice and get a few pictures.

Eastern Mediterranean Cruise: Kotor, Montenegro

    Our last place to visit before our cruise came to an end was Kotor, Montenegro. I did a little research on it before we left, but decided we would just explore on our own. There was no need to pay for another excursion and we had a wonderful time doing things at our own pace.

 We could see Kotor from our room early in the morning.

Eastern Mediterranean Cruise: Corfu, Greece

       I was so excited about today because it was going to be a beach day! Yay. We had only had one so far on the cruise, so another one was calling my name. We went to the excursion office and ended up getting tickets for one that included a couple hours at the beach and a couple hours in the city. It was perfect because we could do it all.

     We got ready and had a big breakfast in the buffet dining room. Then we came back to our room and waited to meet with our excursion group {which wasn't until 12:45}.

 He was writing and saying all his friends names.

Eastern Mediterranean Cruise: Piraeus {Athens}, Greece

    {Piraeus is where the port is located, but it's very close to Athens}

      We Aaron and I woke up early today because we had to meet with our excursion group at 8. Aaron was able to workout and get ready all in the time it took me to get ready and our bag packed for the day. Connor must have been exhausted because he was the first to go to sleep last night and the last to wake up this morning.

   All sprawled out.
