Hello, everyone! It's been a busy few days here in North Dakota, and we've had very little time to spare. Between sightseeing, hiking, exploring, and learning about the incredible life of one of our country's most beloved presidents, we've been very busy.

It has come to my attention that, now that I've posted about Venice (if you haven't read the Venice post, do scroll down to read about it!) and we're set to return home, there were some parts of the trip that didn't get pictured on the blog- mainly Vesuvius, Sorrento, Capri, and one full day in Zermatt.
