Life Cruising the Tasman sea
The Celebrity Edge cruise ship was the beautiful cruise ship we took to New Zealand, and it was awesome. The Celebrity Edge had so many activities, including Trivia, A Kids Club, and multiple pools. At the Kids club there were many activities, such as Gaga ball, Just Dance, Minecraft, Ping Pong, and Foosball. All the people who worked there were so very kind, and Evi and I had our birthday on the cruise, and they set up a sign and we got Celebrity Cruises Water bottles, so t

My favorite things about Australia
So far, we have been in Australia for a while, and so far there are so many things that I love. So I’m going to go through the list: #1 The architecture The architecture in Sydney and Melbourne is very beautiful, and not just on the old buildings. The new buildings are also unique and beautiful in their own right. #2 The national anthem The Australian national anthem is a banger. And a really great national anthem! #3 The indigenous history The telling of indigenous stories

Visiting the Great Barrier Reef
About a week ago, we visited the Great Barrier Reef. We did a bit of a tour type thing in Hastings reef, then we went to another on our own. The tour was much better for us, but both were very fun. We saw a Green Turtle, a Reef Shark and some small see through squid. While we were there, we found out some facts about the Reef, so I will share some fun facts. 1: The Great Barrier Reef and the Daintree Rainforest are the only world heritage sites that touch. 2: Over 9,000 known

Depraved Little Felons
A few weeks ago we went to Port Arthur, which was a colony, and prison for the convicts sent to Australia. There was one specific section about the children who were sent there for crimes called “depraved little felons”. That section talked about how the children were treated in prison. The children were most likely part of gangs, many being orphans, and some having convict parents as well. The reason they started sending convicts to Australia was because the prisons were ver

How I got stung by a blue bottle jellyfish
To start, yes I got stung by a "jellyfish" it is mistaken with a jellyfish hence the name. It was actually a Portuguese man o' war. You might be asking did it hurt? Yes but I didn’t know it was a jellyfish I thought it was a shell that hit my face. How did it happen? Well it all started I was in the water and we saw two jellyfish in the water then we saw another one. So we got out of the water and left right??? Nope we just moved a few feet away the continued hitting the big

Driving again!
A little confession - other than what cities I was staying in (and most accommodation settled) I did very little planning or research about Australia. I figured I would work on it over our Christmas break but I was so happy to have a break from planning things I decided I could just wing it...Melbourne was pretty easy as we were there to enjoy the Australian Open and the city had many options for things to learn and enjoy. We then headed off to Sydney (by train - 13 hour tr

Things I didn’t know about our history
Currently we are in Australia. About a week ago we went to the Melbourne Museum, and we went through the indigenous exhibit and I learned about things that happened in Australia that I had no idea about. Today, I will be diving in to those topics, and things that we aren’t really taught in schools in depth. What we didn’t get told: In school, we learn the history of colonization through the lense of the colonists. We learned about the Europeans coming to Canada, about the tr

Back on the road again!
I have been a rather negligent blog writer...I fully intended to blog as a travel journal but didn't get very far....for a few reasons. First the actual planning of the day to day and week by week logistics takes a long time. It was almost a full time job between booking travel, activities and accommodation. And then there is the little stuff - laundry, groceries and packing up each time we changed cities. I thought I would have ample time on the train but more often than

Barcelona
After spending a month in Italy we were ready to move on to a new country: Spain! We didnt have a lot of room in our itinerary so we spent a week in Barcelona. Barcelona was an easy city to navigate and was a great city to just walk around. We really enjoyed the Sagrada Familia and all the lovely park spaces. Our apartment was so conveniently located we were able to get everywhere stress free! We will definitely come back to Spain as we only had a brief taste of it and

Gaudi's Sagrada Familia - what did it feel like to see it in person?
It felt like I was in a dream. It was the prettiest church, no prettiest building I have ever laid my eyes on. It was indescribable it was so just perfect. And it's not even done. I will definitely suggest going here at least once in anyone's lives. It inspired me to want to be an architect for five seconds. It was so perfectly pretty it should be a wonder of the world but it is a UNESCO world heritage site. Also down below are some questions I answered for you!!! 👇🏻 What

Titanic Fictional story
As the frigid water engulfed her, Amelia had only one thought: “Like father, like daughter.” It was the City of Belfast, 1912. Amelia had just got home from school, everyday she walked home with her friend Conner, and her sister Sophie. They had been friends for years, and lived very close to each other, his house was just downstairs. They opened the door of their building, which was an apartment-like building near the docks. Amelia didn't like the docks much, or ships for th

What it the top 5 places you've been
Today lovely people I will be talking about my top 5 places we have went. ( City wise). 5: I really enjoyed Barcelona and would definitely come back. It had great weather, great parks And an AMAZING Aquarium. The one thing I would change about the visit is the weird glares from kids. I don't know why but they don't like my hair, or find it weird. ( As I'm writing this it is in box braids) Overall I would rate Barcelona a solid 8/10. 4: London. London was really amazing the re
