| Our Vacations |
| Where in the world have Shannon & Matt been? Together we have visited: England, France, Ireland, Germany, Italy, Belgium, Luxembourg, Austria, Scotland, Sweden and Switzerland. We love to travel. Matt did travel quite frequently for work (he has also visited India). Together, we have visited 11 European countries. We also had the opportunity back in 1997 to live in Oxford, England for three months. LOVED IT!!! We have also visited St. Thomas, St. John, Puerto Rico, Hawaii and of course, Beijing and Guangzhou, China. Since Chloe has joined our family, we have been to Colorado, New York, New Jersey and Texas (the last 2 are obvious). |
| Check out the map for the places we have been. Here's a list of our top 5 favorite places we have been. Top 5 Favorite Places We've Been: 1. Ireland: it's beautiful and everyone is really, really friendly 2. Le Grand Duchy du Luxembourg: Despite the fact Matt does a lot of business here, the scenery and history are amazing of this small country sandwiched between France, Germany and Belgium. 3. Hawaii: You just can't beat Hawaii for the scenery and snorkeling 4. Florence, Italy: Beautiful and amazing. The best reason...GELATO! 5. Vienna, Austria: Shannon's favorite city! Where Matt proposed and the coffee houses and atmosphere are excellent. |
