Yesterday morning, I met up with Bonnie, Miss V, and Cindy at the Flower Fields in Carlsbad. The weather was perfect, the company was great and the flowers were gorgeous!
The two princesses bonded right away.
mother + daughter = love
Cindy was all smiles :)
Thanks for inviting us along Bonnie! It was so good to see you again and to finally meet Miss V!

Italy Photography [when in Rome]
. . . do as the Romans do.
(December 2004)
After spending a few days in Paris, we hopped onto the eurail and headed for Rome. Traveling on the eurail, Europe's popular train transportation, was one of my most memorable and favorite parts of the the entire trip. We slept in this tiny room with bunk beds, a sink and a window. What more could you ask for? Well, it would've been nice to have a shower, but we survived. Each of us brought one piece of luggage and a couple sets of clothes. We were really skimping, but it was well worth it.
I remember waking up in the early hours of the morning, looking out our window and seeing white everywhere. We were passing through the Swiss Alps...it was beautiful. I could stare out that window for hours.
On the eurail, we met some interesting people from all walks of life. We even had an interesting situation where two men tried robbing a cart next to ours. I remember getting on the floor, our room completely black and the only thing I could see was the light peaking from underneath our door. Luckily, they were arrested. Whew! There's always an adventure around the corner.
When we arrived in Rome, I felt immediately overwhelmed by the history, grandness and beauty of the city.
The Coliseum.
One of my favorite sites, the Roman Forum.
Inside the Vatican museum.
We ate plenty pizza, pasta and drank lots of wine. It was so much fun!
During our last night in Rome, John couldn't sleep (around midnight) and so he wanted to go for a walk in the city. Of course I wanted to tag along. We walked, unsure of where we were going. After thirty minutes, we turned around a dark corner, probably expecting to get robbed. To our surprise, right before our eyes was the Trevi Fountain. It was GORGEOUS! There was not a person in sight, just us. I wanted to jump in and start dancing around like in "La Dolce Vita." Of course I didn't, but that moment is one I will never forget.
We then boarded the eurail and made our way down to Venice.
This city blew my mind. Everything is afloat and transportation is by boat only. I loved it! We stayed at the Danieli Hotel, thanks to John's friend Steven. Old and authentic, I was in love. I truly felt our room was haunted, but that made it even more exciting. Vintage furniture and paintings adorned our room. This place was decorated to perfection. I felt like I traveled back to the 14th century.
We fed pigeons in St. Mark's Square. John put a little too much seeds on top of my head and I was bombarded by an army of pigeons, which freaked me out. I'll spare you those images. Instead, I'll conclude our trip in Italy with an image of me jumping, which kind of looks like I'm dodging those pesky pigeons :)
More images from our last stop in Barcelona to come soon.

France Photography [j'adore paris]
In late 2004, I went on one of the most wonderful trips of my life. I went to Europe! I just bought my new Canon DSLR and I was giddy with excitement. Growing up in a small town, I only dreamt of traveling to far off places, but never imagined it would actually come true. I was lucky enough to find a man who has the same desire of traveling as I do. And so, we set off on our 2-week journey with some family and friends and had the time of our lives.
On the first leg of our trip, we explored Paris, the city of lights. This was during Christmas so there was an abundance of beautiful lights and decor surrounding the city. It was breathtaking.
Just a little background info, I studied French for 3 years and felt pretty confident that I could converse with the locals. Much to my dismay, I struggled trying to communicate with the parisians.. Some of them just laughed and spoke English to help me out. Was it that obvious that I am American? LOL.
Lately, I've had a lot of time for reflection and thought it would be fun to share some (a lot!) of images from our time in Paris. More images to come from our next stop in Rome!
Right below this bridge is where Princess Diana was killed :(
There's nothing like seeing the Eiffel Tower lit up at night.
Arc de Triomphe.
Inside the Louvre, they were really strict with their no camera policy while viewing the famous Mona Lisa, but I just couldn't resist. If you squint your eyes, you can see the painting in the background.
The Notre Dame cathedral was was so beautiful and a little eerie with all of the gargoyles hanging from above.
The image above is the inside of a McDonald's restaurant right near our hotel. I didn't see any greasy fries or burgers here. It was unlike any fast food restaurant.
The view from the top of the Eiffel Tower was gorgeous...and COLD!
And a few of John and I.
