Road trip!

My husband and I have just moved from Brooklyn, New York to Portland, Oregon. I’m also pregnant with twins. Hopefully this explains why my blog has been so inactive all summer.

We decided on a cross-country road trip instead of flying, because we shipped our stuff and that took two weeks. Our journey took about a week and a half (with two lovely stops to visit family), taking us through 15 states as well as a handful of national parks. Here are a few of my favorite snapshots of our adventure!

Animals in Europe!

Walking around Istanbul, right away we saw so many cats! In front of the Blue Mosque, roaming the Topkapi Palace, everywhere!

In Athens, we saw dogs lounging–on sidewalks, in front of monuments, all over the place.

On Naxos and Paros, there were kitties.

On Santorini, more dogs.

Aren’t they all adorable?!
