Unplanned Vacation

This summer we didn't plan for a vacation... We had a destination wedding to attend in Asheville NC, which was a last minute planned trip, but we were glad to be there. It's was so much fun to go to Myrtle beach and Smokey Mountains. We Zip Lined and White Water Rafted, it was quite an adventure.  That place has variety of activities. The greenery that the East Coast has is priceless.



















Vacation in Santa Monica

When you are making sudden plans for a small vacation, it's always better then usual.  Last Friday we drove to Los Angeles and its takes couple of hours to go there. The next morning we went to Santa Monica Beach, We rented bicycles on the beach and ate good food.








We went to Hollywood and Disneyland

Pismo beach

We went to Pismo Beach last weekend to celebrate our marriage anniversary.  Pismo beach is located on Central Coast of California.  It was very nice and relaxing vacation. Everyday we did different activities like Quad sport, ATV, Banana peel (Fun cycle) and lots of walking on beach collecting sand dollars....  Ocean dunes is another wonder that you find near Pismo, for a while you may forget you being at "beach" and not in "desert".  Food choice is amazing especially Italian cuisine and old style cinnamon rolls - everything is mouth watering.   













    

My trip to Europe

I took a Mediterranean Cruise from Barcelona to Venice.  Visited Spain, Greece, Turkey, Monaco and Italy.
I really liked in Barcelona. Barcelona is known for its world's most famous architecture,beaches and Mediterranean food. Architect and designer, Antoni Gaudi was at the forefront of the Art Nouveau movement in Spain. His work in Barcelona led to the creation of some of the city's most notable landmarks.

My daughter and son went to see bull fight. Bullfighting is an important part of Spanish culture and is presently enjoying a great increase in popularity in Spain. 




I also liked Myconos fantastic beach.They have nice relaxing beach chair and umbrala. Little Venice is wonderful -its colorful doors  and windows stand out so well.
Mykonos  Greece













We saw a famous Turkeys carpet.They take about eight month to make it.It's amazing to see how they are doing so neatly and fast.And you visit any shop they welcome you with Apple tea (hot or cold) which is delicious.
