Ive been so busy at work that I havent had a chance to get one here very much in the last few weeks. I didnt realize you went on your trip. I knew it was scheduled for October, and can't believe its almost November.
How was it?!? I saw some of your pictures below. They look fabulous. Im assuming you used your new camera lens? Those classes you took look like they paid off. Are you/did you post pictures on facebook? Or a photo sharing site? Id love to see more.

Hey Steph, the trip was great! We really enjoyed our time there, and saw a TON of sites. We especially liked Crete -- such a huge range of things to do from beaches, to towns, to ancient archaeological sites, to hiking gorges.....it was amazing. We also had a killer concierge at our hotel there that seriously hooked us up with some local gems.
) I took over 1700 photos 
, and other than saving them to the computer, haven't even had time to go through them all yet. I actually uploaded those two pics to photobucket while on our trip, so they were already ready to go, haha. I do have to be honest and admit that part of the reason I took so many is because it often takes me 3 or 4 tries to get a decent shot. I kept my camera on "manual" the whole time, so I had to be patient with myself, lol. It will probably be more like 1000-1500 when I pare it down (which I recognize is still a LOT!).
The new lens was AWESOME, if for no other reason than I had a much larger zoom range, so one lens worked everywhere, I loved it! I don't usually post a ton to FB (kinda creeps me out to be honest), and I don't know if I'll put them on a site. I do plan to make a photo book from them.....we did one for our India trip a few years ago and it worked out really well. Once it's done I'll try to remember to bring it to a GTG!
) I'll definitely post a few more here once I go through them.....with our schedule right now though, it might be a little while.
