2014 Vacay Overview

I have not been good at keeping up with this little website of mine... this past year has been crazy at school and I just haven't had the time share everything we've been up to.

I know I don't have many readers out there... and I don't write on this blog to build readership. For me, this blog is a digital scrapbook - I mainly write it for myself and for Jamie, so that we can look back and remember all the special times we've spent with each other and with family and friends. It is also nice to have a way to share what we're up to with family and friends, since we don't live close to many of them.

All that being said, if you are reading my site, please leave a comment and let me know you're here! I'd love to know if anyone is reading this... and getting inspiration for travel or recipes or just plain fun!

Now, for the fun part! The trip planning summary!

We began the planning for this trip with a Turkish Airlines flight from Boston to Istanbul. Turkish Airlines just started flying out of Boston, so they had a really good fare deal. To take advantage of the deal they offered, we booked the flights for our trip in October!

We decided to fly from Boston to Istanbul, spend 4 nights in Istanbul, and then fly from Istanbul to Genoa. From Genoa, we would travel via train to explore Italy for 2 weeks. Then, we would fly from Naples back to Istanbul, and finally from Istanbul back to Boston.

The map below shows the cities we visited in Italy:
A: Vernazza (2 nights)
B: Pisa (day trip)
C: Florence (2 nights)
D: Siena (3 nights)
E: Rome (3 nights)
F: Pompeii (day trip)
G: Positano (3 nights)


Pictures and details to come very soon!
