We came to Geneva for one reason and one reason only, to visit Cern. For those of you not familiar with the Hadron collider or theĀ Higss boson particle, I suggest you click on the links to read about them and prepare to have your mind blown! This was on Peter’s bucket list and it was…

From France to Switzerland
It has been a lazy last couple of days. We took the TGV train form Nice to Geneva which was an absolutely beautiful and very easy 6 hour train ride. It wasn’t all justĀ French Riviera beauty. There was graffiti along the way that I found to be very interesting. I wish I knew what it…
Nice is nice
After two full days walking around Nice, I can say my feet are killing me and I have a very nice idea of what Nice has to offer. With such a great hotel and such a great view, it is hard to leave the hotel. But alas, one must explore while traveling. We took ourselves…
From St. Remy to Nice, the adventure continues
Once again, just call me taxi cab Jenna. We drove over 300 kilometers today to get from St. Remy to Nice with a stop in Bandol. Feel free to take a look at my crazy route. We only went to Bandol in the hunt for some delicious rose of course. We had a little adventure…
Tour de Provence
Mom and I started the day with a walk into St. Remy for the weekly market. We picked up some new scarves as well as some delicious strawberries, nuts and fresh baked bread for a little picnic lunch later in the day. We were told to drive to a town called Les Baux de Provence…
To Gordes and beyond!
France is quite a large country and Southern France has a ton of areas to explore. We chose to take a day trip to Gordes and Bonnieux and we were not disappointed! Somehow I was appointed to be the driver along this beautiful countryside. I think living in LA gave me the one up on…
Farewell London and hello France
I would count today as mostly a travel day. It was my first adventure on Easyjet and I am sure not my last. I would compare them to the service of Southwest with the “add-on” options of Spirit. You pay to print your boarding pass at the airport, receive an assigned seat, check your luggage,…
Just a normal day in London
The weather has been perfection, until today. A lazy Sunday to end my time in London.
A day in the English countryside
Today was a day journey to the lovely countryside of England. Once again, we were able to visit some friends who showed us all around their area. We had a beautiful drive and passed some grape seed that I had to stop and take a picture of! I think the picture looks perfect! We started…
A French culinary tour through London…sort of
We have been setting out to accomplish so much everyday and falling quite short. Today we set out to have lunch, walk around the Saatchi Gallery and have dinner. And I must say, we accomplished it all! We thought we were experts at the train by now, but we still managed to get on the…
