There is no question that Burano island in Venice, Italy, is a photographer's paradise, and I found my camera especially drawn to Burano's colorful windows and doors.  I know most travelers head to Murano for the glass works, but if you are trying to decide between Murano or Burano, maybe this peek a Burano's colorful … Continue reading Burano: Doors & Window Photography →

Burano: Easy & Beautiful Day Trip from Venice

Burano Island for Travel Photography

Before we arrived in Venice, I knew Burano was a must see for me.  I know most go to Murano, but in the decision between Murano or Burano, Burano is so much more colorful - it called to the photographer in me.  Just a quick internet perusal showed me the colorful homes, the canal reflections… … Continue reading Burano: Easy & Beautiful Day Trip from Venice →

Romantic Private Gondola Ride

Alex Hai Gondola Ride Tour Venice Italy Private Romantic

When I returned to Venice with my hubby, I knew I only wanted to repeat a gondola ride if it was really important to him, and/or I knew I could arrange something a little more personal.  The researching began, and after much reading, I booked a private, romantic gondola ride...

Scala Contarini del Bovolo: Venice Hidden Beauty

Scala Contarini del Bovolo exterior photo Hidden Gem Top Secret Sights Venice Italy

The Scala Contarini del Bovolo literally means the ladder Contarini (a surname) of the snail. Standing before the palazzo, it's not a stretch to see where the name originated. The steps were originally designed for the Contarini family, and the snail-like spiral of the steps is clear.

Awesome view of the #teampresentations in #brussels today! #tdf2019 #tourdefrance2019
Spending 3 weeks in Europe this summer, but only today in #Rotterdam. Usually I'm a committed love-the-historic-towns kinda girl, but decided to take the train over today for a change of pace. Turns out... I kinda #loverotterdam - who knew. There's a fresh, chill, fun vibe here. A few historic spots for me to get in, but lots of fun architecture to keep me looking up and around. And awesome waterfront and houseboats the hubby would love. Think next trip may need more of this.
Wow! You want to feel you are having a meal in an English country garden green house? You have to try NYC rooftop dining @eatalyflatiron #serrabybirreria - even better? Go during a rainstorm. So many of us watching the ceiling in awe as the rain thundered down. Very cool!
A little more Weiβgerbergasse for the feed, because it's just too adorable. It's best to get there early in the morning to get photos without the people wandering, and for best light! Be sure to check out the link in our profile to #Wandertoes most recent post, the beautiful and historic things to do in Nuremberg.⠀
Right in the heart of Old Town Nuremberg is the Church of Our Lady, and the Schoner Brunnen, or Beautiful Fountain. Look for the gold ring on the ornate gate around the fountain. If you turn it while making a wish, the wish just might come true! Check out the link in #wandertoes profile for our latest post on all the beautiful and historic things to do in Nuremberg.⠀
The winding stairway of Sinwell Tower in the Castle Nuremberg complex. Awesome views from the top, and a crazy photogenic set of steps! Check out the link in #wandertoes profile for our latest post on all the beautiful and historic things to do in Nuremberg.⠀
