Our travels and Vacations!

 

   We both have traveled to many places over the years. Of course we are always glad to be home again. Traveling is also something that gets into your blood. In a nutshell, we have made a couple of trips to the south sea, like Tahiti, Morea, Raiataia, Tahaa, Bora-Bora, cruised the Baltic sea, visited Norway, Denmark, Sweden, Finland, Russia and Estonia. Been to Germany many times over  the years. Went to Austria, Switzerland and Liechtenstein, we enjoyed it very much! Not to forget a little bit of Italy, Monaco, France, Spain and England. We cruised to Greece with some of its Islands (Myconos, Santorini, Crete and Rhodes) went on to Cyprus and Turkey. Went also Egypt and Tunisia, two interesting places. Hawaii with its beautiful Islands has been our vacation destination several times. Our favorite is Kauai. We spend many vacations across the United States and Canada. We have cruised the Caribbean Islands like Jamaica, Haiti, Dominican Republic, St. Thomas, Martinique, Barbados, Cozumel, Cancun (Mexico) as well Caracas (Venezuela). We took a cross country tour of South America. Started in Lima, Peru to Cuzco and Machu Picchu then on to Santiago, Chile (Valparaiso & Vina Del Mar) to Puerto Montt, Puerto Varas,Chile. We crossed the Ande Mountains via Puerto Peula over to San Carlos De Bariloche, Argentina. From there we flew to Buenos Aires and surrounding Area. Then we headed to Iguassu Falls, Argentina and explored the famos Falls. We crossed over into Brasil to see the Iguassu Falls from the Brazilian side. Awesome! Continued on to Rio de Janeiro, Brasil.
