Brandon & Lindsay's Europe Adventure

In and around Europe

Welcome to our Travel Blog!

To get things started, we first decided on traveling together in December 2006.  We had mixed thoughts about where we wanted to go but in the end we came to the conclusion to travel to Europe for nearly 2 months.  Both of us have always kept Europe close in our hearts with its culture, and history. The journey and excitement is about to get started shortly so I hope you enjoy our Travel Blog and check it frequently for updates as we make our way through the heart of Europe.  We look forward to seeing your comments and to hear how things are going back home.

Hello!!! Oh the Paris Metro! What an adventure! Have you met any crazies down below?? Haha at least your dad didn't force you to wear a money belt under your pants so it looks like you have a huge gut! HAHA! Have fun and take pics of weird things along your trip that will make for good stories! I'm all about the random moments!

It sound like you two are doing well, we're really enjoying you blog, always looking forward to the next entry. Everything is good here, Tyler's got a job serving and bartending, and Kim and Devon are somewhere in Vietnam, having a good time we think. They had a rocky start, Devon developed a blister on one of his feet, ended up with an infection, also went to Cambodia, and I don't think they cared for that country. love to both Lynn

Hey everyone! Yeah, so our visit in London was nice. We spent a total of about 75 pounds each and that includes payments for our hostel as well. we thought we did pretty good. So we are in Paris. We are planing in going to Versaille tomorrow. We met up with some of our friends. So we are taking it easy today as this will be our last day in paris... Love you all, Brandon & Lindsay
