Manchester United, Chelsea and Barcelona are probably the three best clubs in the world and Arsenal-always a European threat, round out the final four.

Moravia

Today I took a great daytrip from Prague across all of Moravia to the capital of Brno and one of the most beautiful cities in the Czech Republic, Olomouc. Brno is the capital and undisputed biggest city in Moravia, which is eastern Czech Republic, as opposed to Bohemia which is western. The differences are stark […]

As those of you who read my site regularly know, I love lists and I also love to be surprised and taken aback by new places. It doesn’t happen often but I did a full day trip to Santorini and never wanted to leave. This amazing Greek island is right up in my top 3 […]
Crete for Easter

I spent the past holiday weekend in Crete, which is the southernmost Greek Island and the fifth largest in the entire Mediterranean Sea. The island certainly seemed bigger than that and the scenery, mixed with the people and the amazing food made for a great weekend. Crete was the last part of Greece that I […]

Salzburg’s “Old Town” with its world famous baroque architecture is one of the best-preserved city centers in Europe, and was listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site in […]
What a Day in the Alps!

We woke up very early and had a nice breakfast overlooking the Liechtenstein Alps and then drove up to Vaduz Castle. The castle overlooks the entire country basically and was a nice, relatively tame castle for this part of the world after what we saw yesterday with Neuschwanstein Castle. I put on my oasys for […]

As we left Prague to drive to Munich and Bohemia turned into Bavaria, the scenery became more and more beautiful. It was my second time in Munich but first in ten years and the last time I was here was for Oktoberfest which means I didn’t see too much aside from the obvious beer tents. […]

I created a new page for some of my pictures, aptly named “Pictures of Lee” on the right-hand side tab of this home page, moving it from the about Lee page. I also added a few new pictures from recent trips and will continue to do so more often as I move forward. Thanks for […]

Nightlife in Europe is a lot different than it is anywhere else in the world especially in the United States. Clubs are just different, weird if you will and they are generally populated by people with an average age of about 14. Last night, a bunch of friends and I went to the world famous […]
