traveling dreams...

Yesterday, I wore this pretty little necklace that I picked up a few years ago when my best friend and I spent a week backpacking through Europe.

Our stops included Germany, Prague (that's where the necklace is from), Paris, and London, and it was an incredible trip.  I started reminiscing yesterday, and I started wishing I had another trip to Europe planned... but since I don't, I'll have to make do with looking at pictures of this one, and start dreaming about the next!

We saw plenty of beautiful old buildings (in college i went on a month-long Cathedrals tour of Europe... amazing)!

Prague was beautiful, and so much fun.  I'd love to go back.

It was my second time visiting Paris, and I'd like to go back a million more.

We took a boat tour by night of the Siene and it was fabulous.  

Brighton Beach, about an hour outside of London, was an adorable town and I did quite a bit of shopping there.  

It was my first time in London--there were lots of amazing things, but the thing I remember most clearly is Harrod's (too bad I didn't get a picture there)!  If I lived in London, I would have to make at least weekly trips to Harrod's, because it was just that great.

We visited the Cabinet War Rooms to get a little bit of history while we were there, and I thought it was fascinating.

I think the hardest thing about taking amazing trips like this one is that then I always want to go back to the places I went, and I can't decide between returning or trying out somewhere new...
