terracina in the camper

Matt and I went for a little weekend trip to Terracina where we did some hiking, some eating, some exploring, and some reconnecting. The orange blossoms were heavenly, the fish was delicious, and we like it there so much we made plans to take Jean back during her trip!

lately: dogs, hikes, peggy, friends

ash and jess go to belgium

Ashton and I took a quick trip to Bruges and Ghent, Belgium shortly after she arrived home. We walked a lot, experienced magical villages covered in Christmas lights, ate waffles and fries, drank our fill of hot chocolate and mulled wine while strolling through Christmas Markets, and let adventure and spontaneity lead us. We had fun, as we always do.

Alan and Sarah stayed with us for a week and it was really, really lovely. We explored downtown Naples twice (once on a holiday which was crazy), went to Pompeii, attended a JFC holidaty market/concert, and walked up Vesuvius. We checked out Vietri Sul Mare and the lights of Salerno, and found a cute festival in Sant’Agata dei Goti. We ate, we drank, we chatted, we learned italian, we pet the dogs and we enjoyed being together.

down the west coast- maratea, diamante, marina di camerota

For our Thanksgiving weekend we took the camper down the coast- first to Maratea where we spent a night on the top of the world and then walked to giant Jesus, then down the coast to the Calabrian town of Diamante where we stayed at a campeggio right on the beach, and finally up to Marina di Camerota where we drove way up on a crazy dirt road to another mountaintop for the night. You gotta read our camper logbook for the details, but we had lots of adventures, food, and incredibly breathtaking views. I definitely want to go back during the spring when there is more happening.
