royal wedding.

I've developed an unhealthy obsession with Prince William and Kate's wedding! Lifetime just aired its movie about the royal couple and afterward showed a documentary about planning the wedding. The wedding and all the parties just seem like they are going to be extravagant and I'm becoming extremely envious that I will not be partaking in any of this! I wanna be a princess :(

 I'm still waiting for this invitation to arrive in the mail.....
the ring!

isle of capri

i've decided the next time i happen to find myself in europe, i'm going to travel to the the small italian island called capri. it is located on the south side of the gulf of naples, in southern italy.

i really didn't know very much about the island previously, but whenever i tell people about my trip to italy they ask me why i didn't visit capri. so i did some research on the island tonight and found some really interesting landmarks to visit. here are just a few of them:


the ruins of the imperial roman villas.

grotta azzurra (the blue grotto).


the natural arch.













i think one of the most intriguing aspects of the island is that it can only be visited by taking a ferry from naples or sorrento. it's the perfect weekend getaway!
