Ty and I started the day off early thanks to the neighborhood roosters. Ugh off and on since about 4am and then constant from 6am on. Ty found out that the day tour he thought he booked for today was actually for tomorrow. So we had no plans. This led him to look into flights… Continue reading Travel Day: Cebu to Coron (take 2)

Adventure Day: Cebu, Philippines
So after arriving late and getting to bed by 11ish, we had to wake up by 2:45 to meet our driver at 3:15. It was brutal, but for a good reason, we’re going swimming with WHALE SHARKS! However, the place to do this is in Oslo, which is about 3 hours from Cebu. We were… Continue reading Adventure Day: Cebu, Philippines
Adventure Day 8: Bora Bora
Ty and I woke up and decided to explore the reef behind our house. It was so beautiful but very much sharp coral, and not soft sand. What a wonderful way to start the day. Then we had breakfast at the hotel, and it's been ok, nothing really wrong with it. However, nothing can compare… Continue reading Adventure Day 8: Bora Bora
Adventure Day 5: Bora Bora
The title is getting a bit repetitive, I know... Nothing big planned today. Just another day of sleeping in, getting homework done, amazing food at breakfast. The usual. After breakfast our big plan was to get Ryder in the pool, and it worked! For about 20 minutes till we had our morning education on how… Continue reading Adventure Day 5: Bora Bora
Adventure Day 6 & 7: Bora Bora
Day 6 week woke up to it pounding rain. It lasted all day! So not much actually happened this day. It was very much a laze around, read, get schoolwork done, and watch shows kind of day. Which was ok, not bad to happen at this point in the trip. But I hope it doesn't… Continue reading Adventure Day 6 & 7: Bora Bora

Today was our first day without any plans. We wanted to sleep in, check out the pool, the beach, and try out some of the free equipment they offer, like paddle boards, and kayaks.

Adventure Day 1: Bora Bora
Ty does such a good job researching all the activities in an area and for this trip he came across the option to rent a boat and driving ourselves around the island. It required a bit of prep on his part, he completed a 4 hour boat license training online so he could upgrade to… Continue reading Adventure Day 1: Bora Bora
Travel Day: Stuttgart to Frankfurt, Germany
Ty and I have decided on a catch phrase to describe Stuttgart, “it’s fine”. Nothing was really wrong with our time here, but nothing was really great either. A good part of this may be we’re burnt out on traveling and are ready to be home. We had a ‘fine’ breakfast at the hotel. R… Continue reading Travel Day: Stuttgart to Frankfurt, Germany
