Loving the Island Life in Seychelles!
And finally, after 2 years of planning we were off to Seychelles! Seychelles was definitely different from any other trip we’ve taken.

Driving along the Cote d’Azur: Cannes, Nice, Monaco & Genoa.
As said in previous posts, we initially planned this trip to watch a basketball tournament in Antibes, France. With some research, we quickly figured out that we can turn our little basketball trip into a French Riviera sightseeing adventure!
