We were gone for 16 days and 16 nights it was a long but fun adventure. Hope you all enjoy looking at the pictures from our trip!

Fira, Santorini
The waves at Kamari were amazing!!! Jen lost her top and I lost my bottoms
while swimming. Good thing we were in Europe, after all nudity is the norm!
Just another church. So pretty all the white and blue!
The condo where we stayed in Santorini.
Oia, the town where The Sister Hood of the Traveling Pants was filmed!
Black Pebble Beach also known as Kamari Beach.
Red Beach

Oia watching the sunset : ) Aren't we cute.
The ferry we took to Santorini.

Erectheus
Here we are standing on Aeropgaus (Mars Hill). This is where Paul gave his sermons and converted several Greeks. It was pretty amazing to walk in Paul's footsteps!

This one's out of order but here is Ali, Jen and I in St. Peter's Bascilica.
Please take notice that the light a.k.a the holy spirit is shining down on me...
I guess it's pretty obvious who's the holiest in this group!

Oh you know just taking a pic in front of the Parthenon...



Pantheon

In front of St. Peter's Bascilica.
The Belvedere Torso was created by the Athenian sculptor, Apollonius. This sculpture was highly influential on many artists including Michelangelo. He actually weeped when
he saw the torso and if you look at Michelangelo's paintings after seeing
this sculpture you can see the resemblance.
Pieta
Spanish Steps
Marcus Aurelius
Trevi Fountain

Making a wish at the fountain. I hope it comes true!
A view of the city! I absolutely loved Rome!
It was definitely one of my favorite cities
we visited, minus the earthquakes : )
Victory Arch of Constantine.
In front of the Roman Forum.
