London and the Flower Show

Wow... so it's 2020 now. Not sure how that happened but here we are. I would love to do a better job of sharing my adventures this year and so I think I'll start by sharing some of the trips I didn't get to sharing last year!

So last May I took a girl's trip with my mom, my aunt, and my cousin and we had the most amazing time! We went to London and Amsterdam and I took so many pictures that I haven't even made it through all of them yet... and that was LAST YEAR. So I'm going to try to do better and I'm starting now, by sharing our trip to London!

For me, London was a lot like New York, only much much older... I love a good city, don't get me wrong, but sometimes it's hard not to feel like a tourist because there are SO many historic and iconic things you want to see. (I acknowledge that I literally am a tourist but I usually try to avoid the obvious tourist-trap attractions, if I can).  So this is me playing tourist in London, Big Bus Tour and all! It was a blast and I can't imagine sharing the experience with anyone else than these wild ladies! 

Tulum

Keaton and I just got back from a 9 day vacation in Tulum, Mexico.

I've wanted to go to Tulum for a while now because it always looks so dreamy and boho and just super relaxing.

It did not disappoint!

The food was incredible, the beaches are breathtaking, the jungle is wild, and you can bike to everything. This is maybe the most perfect vacation spot... We stayed at two different Airbnbs while we were there, one in the jungle and one in the pueblo.

The beach is obviously amazing but we were surprised by how much time we spent in the cenotes. Throughout the yucatan there is a large underground river system and as sink holes or pits have formed, it's exposed the groundwater, creating these beautiful swimming holes! Such an awesome way to cool off and an awesome spot to see birds (and bats)!

Many delicious cocktails were had, many tacos were consumed; what more could you ask for?!

[ At the end of this post I'll include a list of "Must See/Eat" in case you're looking to take a trip to the Yucatan ]

Greece!

Y'all, I've been dreading this post because it's the end of my Europe pictures!
Oh well! On to the next adventure I suppose...

GREECE.
IS.
AMAZING!!!!!

The people are legitimately the friendliest we met abroad. We gave up our seats up for an elderly couple on the train and then they were trying to give their seats to another older couple and it lead to the most polite greek argument I've ever seen :)

We stayed in Athens. Our Airbnb was extra amazing. We were literally at the bottom of the Acropolis. The food was unreal.

I don't think it could have been more perfect! We took a day trip to Hydra (because y'all know I can't stay out of the sea) and the Greek islands are even more beautiful than the pictures!

We were really just blown away. I think I've said this every time but I really can't wait to go back!

EXPLORE!

Since funds are low at the Lamle household we decided to spend our Labor Day exploring downtown Atlanta! Neither of us know the area real well so it was really a good day of adventure!

We tried out the Varsity (overrated but not bad!). It was crazy busy! We also found some neat spots we'd like to visit and partake in a few beverages in the future! Not bad for a gloomy Labor Day!

 I know RIGHT?? Woody Allen film fest! They're doing the Cohen Bros next month too! *EEP!*

What a win! On a sadder note...Keaton got me sick! Boys...

Hope your Labor Day was Labor-less!
