These are some of my favorite travel memories and are in no particualr order.
10. The Grand Canyon is simply stunning. Taking a nap in the park and then watching the sunset was spectacular! (And also darting around Vegas with Anna, my travel partner in crime was fun too!)
9. Visiting a kangroo sanctuary in the outback and holding little joeys!! Also, I'd like to add that the hospitality in both Australia and New Zealand is TOP NOTCH! My favorite people groups hands down! They are all sweet as, mate! :)
8. Ireland Day Tours. Every single one. (I did 3!) Ireland is an amazing country and this tour company got an A+ in my book! Loved getting to know the guides and experienced so many God-winks during my time there!! (refer to Ireland entries) This country is absolutely gorgeous!!
7. Adventures with my German sister!! Who would have thought that we would meet online, travel around New Zealand for a month, and then go to Spain together the following year! We've shared so many laughs and I can't wait to do more traveling with her!!
6. On the bullet train from Kyoto to Tokyo... and all of a sudden I see this beauty:
Mt. Fuji = Majestic
5. I'm not typically a Disney World fan... I didn't realize it at the time, but when I went there in 2012 it was the last vacation we would take as a family and that makes me sad. I miss my grandparents so much and I would do anything to go back and spend time at Disney with them. This trip will always hold a special place in my heart and I would trade any of my other trips for this one.
4. I would get on a plane and go to Spain just for the tapas!!! Need I say more???
3. Seeing the BIG 5 in South Africa. Sabi Sabi private game reserve was luxurious and AMAZING. People who know me know I love animals so getting to be up close and personal with them was fantastic!! I also got to walk along side elephants during this trip which was really neat.
2. Uluru (ayers rock) ... Australia was one of the first countries I ever learned about in school and I remember studying this rock and seeing pictures of it back in 1st grade. I finally got to see it on my second trip to Oz!
1. I remember the day we were headed to the Great Wall of China. I don't think I blinked the entire car ride because of the highly anticipated GREAT WALL. My heart skipped a beat when I finally saw it out of our car window. Walking along the wall and tobogganing down the wall were also a plus!
I have a feeling I'm going to have a whole new list after October... only 5 months away until continent #6!!
