Landing in Port Elizabeth we'll drive from the eastern cape to the west. Before arriving in Cape Town, we'll make stops along this beautiful drive to hike, play with elephants, and more!

We'll be spending a lot of time on planes. Hoping this will help us catch a few z's while traveling!

This 1/2 day trip from Athens is known for its amazing views. We'll enjoy a lunch of fried fresh calamari, take a dip in the sea, and relax as we watch the sunset this amazing backdrop.

After a busy wedding week, and a stop in Athens, we'll both be looking for a massage!

Kayaking is the best way to explore Mykonos by shore - snorkel in crystal clear waters and visit hidden beaches.

We'll soak in the views of Santorini from the sea, go ashore to explore the volcano and hot springs, and end with a sunset dinner overlooking the caldera.

We're looking forward to learning how to eat like the natives! There is SO much street food in Istanbul and we don't want to miss any of it!

A chance for a more authentic spa day in one of Istanbul's famous hammams.

Sunbathing, swimming and eating while cruising the Turkish Riviera. Best way to spend a short trip to Bodrum!

Two of Israel's highlights in one day - and apparently Monica can tan on the dead sea without having to worry about sunburn! Yay!!

Orly picks us up at the outdoor markets. We pick up ingredients and head to her house for an authentic Israeli cooking class! Can't wait to try out some new recipes at home!

As you can see from our wedding - we love wine! Changing it up a bit from Napa and Sonoma, we'll be tasting wines in South Africa's wine country (and hopefully shipping lots home too!)

We both appreciate good food, good wine, and good experiences. Ranking at #28 of top restaurants in the world, The Test Kitchen seems like a great place to have all three!

It seems terrifying, but why not?!

The best way to experience Seychelles - this covers trips to the 3 major islands: Mahe, Praslin, and La Digue

October is supposed to offer some of the clearest waters for snorkeling - hopefully we run into one of these guys!

Begin and end the honeymoon with some major relaxation.

Since we'll be on the go for quite a while, we're looking for hotels that have the charm and comfort to make us feel at home. This is one example at Victoria Falls!
