vacation...

Twenty-eighth day of the July Challenge:

What has been your best vacation memory?

I've had a few dreamy vacations. They each have their own special memories. So it's tough to pick a "best" memory.

  • Watching the lights of Paris turn on from the top of the Eiffel Tower was magical, goose-bump inducing, and romantic. But I was with my dad so the romance was lost.
  • Following an old city map while wandering in Barcelona, not speaking any Spanish, and exploring the old city on a beautiful day was an adventure I had by myself--the friend I was visiting was working.
  • Riding mopeds along the rocky shores of Aruba was thrilling.
  • Finding the perfect perfume, which I've never been able to replace, at The Floriade--a spectacular world's fair of flowers from around the world, was a memorable day.
  •  Watching a glorious sunset from the Golden Gate Bridge, while visiting my sister in California.
  • A hilarious road trip with my niece and my parents to visit my Pennsylvania and Virginia sisters, a few years ago.
  • Spending time reading and knitting this summer--with a couple of fun road trips and the STING concert!

All of them are the best!
