Weekly Summer Linky: Best Trip of my Life

Living abroad has given me the opportunity to travel way more than I could have ever imagined possible.  In the 2 years that my husband and I have lived in the UK we have traveled to over 19 different countries!  Each trip has been filled with great memories and I'm not sure I could just pick one place we've visited to call "the best trip of my life."  We still have 9 more months before heading back to California and although our travels have slowed because our little girl is due any day now, I'm sure that when I'm old I'll look back and see THIS experience as the "best trip of my life."  

So with that, the best trip of my life has been living here in the UK and the many travel opportunities I've had because of it.  Here are just a few photos of some of the places my husband and I have been during our time here. 

Sitting and enjoying the view of our local town high street.  A high street is like the primary business spot of a town.  Ours is actually a pretty good size and we go here just about every week.  It has grocery stores, clothes shops, a bakery, coffee and tea rooms, pubs etc.

London!  We live about 2 hours North of London and take the train in to just walk around every few months.  Just about every time we go we visit something new and it always makes for a nice day out.

Here we are in Munich, Germany for the REAL Oktoberfest.  This seriously was such an AMAZING experience.  Upon arrival we purchased outfits to wear to the big festival and could not believe how massive this event is!  The people were fantastic and we had so much fun singing along and making friends. 

Taking a photo break on our hike through the 5 towns of Cinque Terre, a beautiful place along the coast of the Italian Riveria. 

Uh... take me back to Rome!  Seriously this city is so beautiful and has so much to see.  It really is nicknamed "The Eternal City" for a reason.

And don't even get me talking about the clear, sandy beaches of Ibiza!  We had a lot of fun scootering from beach to beach in this city on a relaxing getaway.

Living here can get a little quiet during the holiday season so we hopped on a plane and headed to the Christmas Markets in Vienna, Austria.  While there we enjoyed a cup of mulled wine, music and holiday goodies.

Here I am looking out over the city of Bergen, Norway.  So pretty but so expensive!

In Amsterdam we enjoyed looking at and taking a boat tour through the canals which cover the whole city.  I liked this photo because it shows the canals but also shows a bike which I think is a perfect representation of the city.

Here we are standing in front of the ancient city of Ephesus.  For this trip we went on a 7 day cruise through the Eastern Mediterranean.  We were able to visit Venice, Dubrovnik, Olympia, Ephesus, and Istanbul. 

Although I am having so much fun looking back through our trip photos, I think that is enough for this post.   I can't believe I didn't even touch on all the places we've been and things we've seen!  

Seriously, I am so blessed to have this opportunity and truly believe that this will be the best trip of my life!  With that CHEERS to the memories that will last a lifetime and to all the many "best trips"  out there!
