Our European Vacation Website

August 3 to August 26, 2007, Chris and I finally made the long trip we had been wishing for for years, since we were dating. It was great that it happened to work out that our 7th wedding anniversary was at the very beginning of the trip!

While we were traveling, I wrote journal entries to capture our memories while they were fresh in our minds. Now I’m using those as the basis for each of my webpage entries!

I want to use this website to share the memories Chris and I gathered on this trip to share with our friends and family, and also to share the memories and photos with our travel group. They were all so much fun to hang out with and share our European dream with! I want to dedicate this site to all of them, and thank them all, including our fearless leaders Reid, Dimi, and Rene, for making our trip that much more memorable and special.

I hope you all enjoy my website, filled with memories, photos (links to the slideshows are embedded in the thumbnail photos), videos (links to the video clips are hyperlinked text on the descriptors), and other related website links!!

Mary
PS All of the this website was programmed "by hand" by me using only basic html programming (and I'm no computer programmer, by any stretch of the imagination). If you're curious how I did any of it, just go to View / Source on the Internet Explorer toolbar.
