This is a list of the countries we've visited together!
Both of us had traveled a little before we were married, but figured
that didn't count! Except for Korea since that's where we met!!
We do so love to travel! We are often asked if we have a favorite.
Well, not really! Every place has had it's own specialties and
all have been wonderful in their own way!
