Since I killed http://www.thetravelingdinks.com/ last spring, we had the chance to take a few weekend trips and one major trip to Europe. I'll break down each of these trips in a few posts, but here is a quick breakdown:
1. End of July. I graduated. Joy. To celebrate, we took a fun little trip to Reedville, VA and Tangier Island off the Northern Neck.
2. End of August. The annual trip to the AMEE conference. This year it was held in Glasgow, Scotland so we took some time to visit the British Isles. This was the a bit of a nostalgic tour for us since the UK was our first big international trip when we were college kids. We spent time in London, took daytrips to Richmond and Bath, then flew to Belfast and rented a car and tooled around County Antrim in Northern Ireland; finally we went to Glasgow and took daytrips to Edinburgh and the Trossachs.
3. November. A long weekend to our favorite cabin in the VA countryside. The weather was unseasonably warm and we had a lovely, peaceful time.
4. December. A long weekend some place warm is always a welcome treat when the weather cools in DC. We escaped to Miami, staying at the campy chic The Standard on the Bay side of South Beach. We had some memorable meals--one at Indomania (Indonesian fare) and a return visit to the always special Wish. We did get stuck an extra day in South Beach because of weather troubles elsewhere, but there are worse places to find yourself stuck!
