Europe 2012

There is nowhere I love more than Europe. I told Tyler when we lived there in 2008, I could come back every year of my life and would never be tired of visiting these countries. Well it took four years, but I finally was able to return. We went on a Mediterranean cruise with the Rice family and Tyler and I spent one week in Paris for our five year anniversary. I am so lucky, for our first year anniversary we spent the summer in Spain, and for five years I got an antique ring and a week in Paris. J'adore!
 The cutest gelatto shop in Paris
 In all honesty, I think Tyler loves Paris more than anyone.
 Versailles
 One of the best mornings of my entire life, was spent biking the grounds of Versailles


 Tyler gave me an antique ring under the Eiffel Tower
 This was where I spent most of time last time I was in Paris, sick as ever

 Barcelona!! We seriously love Spain SO MUCH
 In Provence with my GrandMere
 Another one of my (newest) favorite places, Monaco
 Long train ride to Florence was totally worth it!
 Another one of the greatest days was the day we rented scooters in Florence and drove into Tuscany. Liz took most of the pictures that day, but it was the BEST day of our entire cruise. We ate the most delicious Italian food, and drove through a country that literally smelled like a flower shop. A day I will never forget.

 I'm so happy I've been to Rome before, because I felt like our day trip to Rome was sort of a Las Vegas version of Rome.

 Instead of seeing Naples or Pompeii, we rented a van to drive us along the Amalfi Coast. Tyler and I quickly decided this is somewhere we will definitely return to. This place is indescribable. 








These last two pics are Rome and Nice, but I hate blogger so much I am not going to try and rearrage them.
