Get back on the map

So when we went to Morocco the email from my mom said: "Ashleen Marie. Get Back on the Map. You are off the Map." here are some images from when we went off the map (this being soley because I gave my mom a map of Europe).

Spenser with a panoramic view of that which is not mapped. Us embarking on our journey off the map. Moroccans...

Africa Sun, Croatia Ear piercing

After an hour in the sun in Morocco...this happened. And then we loaded up our backpacks and got on a train to get to Italy... a long long long two days.

Spenser got a little sun burnt

the ear piercing I got in Croatia.

We're really not that crazy

Belgium Sleep... Boat Sleep...

So in order to get to Greece we went by boat, sleeping on the deck of the ship. In Belgium we napped in the train station because Belgium was not good to us. In Pag, Spenser slept on the beach. In Ancona spenser slept while I watched the people around us.

Uncle George

Alas, a highlight of the people we met, good old Uncle George, the Greek man living in Venice who speaks 10 languages and leads a rather interesting lifestyle.
