Looking up in the Sagrada Familia. This image was taken on Monday, July 11, 2011 in Barcelona, Spain.

I realize that it is Friday – an up to this point I’ve been very good with keeping my “Travel Tuesday” posts on time. This week though, we were in a Barcelona flat without wifi (who knew those even existed anymore!) and then we were traveling home, then it was my first day back at the office, and now it is Friday morning!

For all my good intentions of writing several blog posts while on vacation, I didn’t. I decided instead to take a real, live holiday. No writing, no lawyering, just a few amazing photoshoots that were made of magic (teasers here), and my current 30-day challenge (which, despite my previous failure, is going really well!) The vacation was the best. I feel so refreshed and rejuvenated and just plain excited about life again. Woohoo!

I’m also super excited because we have decided our next big trip is to Antarctica – in the spring (Antarctica’s fall). By doing this, both the hubs and I will have visited all 7 continents before our 30th birthdays. Holy moly!

I’ve got a busy couple of weeks coming up: I’m second shooting a wedding for the amazing Lemon Fresh Designs this weekend, then I’ve got a business trip to Vancouver next week, then I’ve got two more upcoming weddings on the August long weekend (or maybe one… if the Cameroonian groom doesn’t get his visa, keep your fingers crossed), then I’ve got a week long conference in Whistler. So please forgive me if I’m a little thin on the posts over the next little while! I’ll be back, with a vengeance, in the fall, when wedding season has calmed down a little.

Thanks for sticking through the downtime!

XOXO.
