Our last day in Greece was a good reminder of how when traveling with kids you need to have realistic expectations. But while you can’t do everything, you can still do lots and it’s important to just remember to enjoy what you can do and the chance you have to share these moments with yourContinue reading “Knowing your limits”

 The last time we were in Athens was four years ago and we got married.  The day after our wedding we headed to downtown Athens (after forcing ourselves to get up after our late night) and took some amazing pictures in an area called Monastiraki.

Our last day with the Jordans wasContinue reading “Saying Goodbye”
