All Star fun in Cleveland

One of the reasons we became season ticket holders was to be able to attend the fun stuff for the All Star Weekend.  We bought the strip of tickets and went to the softball game and the Home Run derby!  The enjoyment and energy in Cleveland was amazing that weekend! 

We started the weekend at Play Ball Park!  We went ziplining, which was phenomenal, saw some great exhibits, and walked around seeing all the fun baseball stuff!  The only problem is it was so ridiculously hot that day!  We had to leave because of the heat. 

 
 
Before the softball game we stopped downtown for dinner at Saigon.  We had never been there and they were not busy compared to the other places.  It was one of the best decisions we ever made for dinner.  The food and drinks were top-notch and the owner is a sweet man. 
 
 

The celebrity softball game was a blast, even though Cleveland lost!
 
 

Before the Home run derby we got to spend some fun time outside the stadium dancing to music and getting free Monster drinks!
 
After the game that night we stopped by the Galley and had a shrimp roll from Tinman!  I love Tinman and hope to continue enjoying his foods even when he leaves the Galley!

Palermo day 2 & Corleone

  We started our day with breakfast at the B & B before heading off for the day.  meat, cheese, filled cornetto & espresso. We then met our driver from Welcome Pickups.  We drove to Corleone which was Ronnie's Great Grandparents hometown.  This is a picture on the drive down- it is about an hour drive.   Some random pictures of the town and Ronnie and his dad, Ron, in one of the Piazzas.   We then stopped in one of the churches to light candles and say prayers.  It was beautiful inside.   We tried walking  around a bit, the streets were narrow, and all seemed downhill so we did not get too far.  We were also getting hungry.  Ronnie's dad wanted pizza so we stopped for that.   There was a St. Anthony so I felt good with this place!  The girl here did not speak English so it was not good for my husband or his dad.  I did the ordering.  Normally in Italy it is one pizza per person especia...

Bologna Day3- day trip to Modena

 We started off the day sort of late.  Decided to do a day trip to Modena, round trip was under 17 euros total for us both.  We walked to the train station which is literally like 5 minutes from our hotel grabbed a cappuccino water and apricot filled croissant and off we went.  We arrive in Modena less than a half hour later.   look at the pretty streets of Modena Another day another piazza! But we were in Modena and I was in search of balsamic...a tasting a something.  The first store I went in to had very, very high end balsamic you could do a tasting for a price and the cheapest bottle started at 60 Euro.  This was not our balsamic market.  This was a little above where we wanted to buy and we have tasted the really expensive stuff before.  But then we found a reasonable store.  Giuseppe Giusti offers free tastings of their balsamic at all different levels and their vermouth.  It was all fantastic.  We decided on some i...

GIrls Trip- Alaska

I know know, this blog is all about the fun stuff I do with my husband, but this one blog post is going to be about an adventure I had with the one person I have known the longest in my life- my sister! The trip started with Angela texting one day asking if I wanted to see the Aurora Borealis....I thought sure why not.  And then we booked a trip and here we are. As we were planning I remembered an old friend from my semester at American lives in Fairbanks so I reached out to him for suggestions.  He offered some great ideas on places to go, things to do, and places to eat. Sadly we will not be able to see him and his wife, because they leave for vacation right after we got in town.   So the adventure for me started with a 7:50 text that my flight changed and a rerouting.  I left Cleveland at 1:40 pm and met up with my sister in Seattle at around 7 pacific time for a quick dinner before we parted ways for our flights to Fairbanks (different airlines).  ...
