Well, as you may be aware, we had our next trip all planned for this October, going to Marrakech, Morrocco! We rented a beautiful riad, complete with rooftop terrace and indoor dip pool. It was right off the medina which is home to the souks (vendors) and performance artists.
However due to recent events, like this and this, we have decided in the interest of safety for us to postpone our trip. Being an American in North Africa right now is a risky situation, so we’ve decided to go somewhere a little safer- like Lisbon, Portugal. For 5 nights we’ll be exploring the beautiful country of Portugal. We have a stunning, modern apartment booked right downtown and are planning day trips out to places like Sintra where you can see this castle:

So we’re really disappointed that our North African adventure can’t happen, but we’ll have a great time anywhere we go, we always do. The first week of our trip we’ll be exploring Germany and Austria a bit more, headed to Salzburg, Munich and Berchtesgaden. We’re also going to have a Halloween party at the house in Heidelberg our second to last night in Germany. Diana and I are ready for our amazing costumes as Katniss and Effie Trinket from the Hunger Games!
