There were many amazing moments on the trip. I have a hard time picking the best, so here are a few that stand out:
St. Peter’s Basilica
Gazing down the nave at the baldachin and upward at the rays of light streaming down overwhelmed me with emotion. I had dreamed of coming here for some time. My dream was now a reality.
Hiking in the Swiss Alps
I’ve seen mountains in the highlands of Scotland and the Appalachians back home. But the Swiss Alps bring home the gold medal (yes, the Winter Olympics are on now). We were there on a clear, bright day, and the colors were so vivid. As the trail would turn, I would see something new and just be blown away at the beauty. I kept stopping just to let these moments soak in.
Wandering in rothenburg
I’m so enamored with Germany, and this town was so much fun. Taking blue hour photos in the evening felt like a magical time warp.
