Speechless Sunday | Barcelona, Spain

This photo was taken in Barcelona, Spain. The architecture is quite different, and unusual. The Harbor was beautiful and the architecture of the surrounding buildings was interesting. The Port area was busy with travelers boarding the cruise ships. This was definitely one of the highlights taking the boat tour in Barcelona.

Speechless Sunday | Seine River in Paris, France

This photo was taken while I was on a water taxi in Paris. The perspective is different when actually riding on a boat. It was so beautiful, and the sun was setting, and it was a beautiful ride to the Eiffel Tower.There is incredible architecture in Paris as well as very intricate details throughout Paris. I will continue to share photos of this beautiful area.

Speechless Sunday - the Beach in Nice, France

The French Riviera is one of the most beautiful places I have ever visited. I have so many fond memories of it, from enjoying the people, the food, the architecture and the beach. The beach in Nice is different as there is not soft sand like there is in California, rather there are rounded rocks which is why there were lounges on the beach. The architecture of the surrounding buildings was incredible. Nice was one of my all time favorite places, and look forward to going back.

Speechless Sunday - Notre Dame in Paris

This past summer I was fortunate enough to take a trip with my daughter Morgan, and we explored France, and Spain. We did get to see Notre Dame and I have other photos that are close up and really shows the intricacy of the architecture. There is so much history in this city.

It is so beautiful, and there was a service that had just began, so we were not able to go through it, but it was stunning! The weather could not have been better for walking around the incredible city of Paris.

 

The Seine River in Paris, France - Speechless Sunday

The Seine River in France is an important commercial waterway in Paris, France. This photo was taken this past summer and I thought it was absolutely beautiful. We did  take a water taxi to see the Eiffel tower and it was incredible to view Paris from the river. There were many dinner boats as well, and it is a great way to enjoy the scenery of Paris. The architecture of this area is detailed and intricate as well.

Speechless Sunday - Paris - France

Paris is a beautiful city and there is so much to see. There are beautiful fountains, and the architecture of the buldings is truly amazing. Walking around the gardens and seeing people just enjoying the beauty of Paris was inspiring. Paris is an incredible place to visit, and perhaps live!

Surfer Rides Biggest Wave Ever in Portugal!

This wave is one of the largest reported waves ever ridden. At approximately 90' which is the size of an 8 story building, this surfer was towed into the wave by a personal watercraft. This is an incredible video to watch!  A Hawaiian surfer named Garrett McNamara surfed a 90-foot wave off the coast of Portugal.

Speechless Sunday - Paris, France

I was fortunate to be able to travel to Europe this past summer and a definite highlight was Paris. There is so much to see. The architecture of the Arc De Triomphe is aboslutely incredible. It is located at the western end of the Champs-Elysees and is one of the most famous monuments in Paris. It is incredibly beautiful with intricate details, and there were many visitors. The background with the sky was beautiful that night. I took this photo in August of this year.




Speechless Sunday - the Harbor in Nice, France

This past summer I was fortunate to visit Europe and one of the highlights of the trip was Nice, France. The coastline is absolutely stunning, and the water is a turquoise blue. The Harbor in Nice had some amazing yachts as well, and it was overall an incredible place to see. Definitely look forward to returning to Nice.
