APR19VSNA ~ FRI APR 12 ~ 5:00 PM ET ~ Get Some Advice
Challenge Title: Get Some Advice Hostess: Kim (aka berlycece) Keyword: APR19VSNA Date: Friday April 12, 5:00 pm ET
In 2013, my husband and I were blessed to celebrate our 20th anniversary with a 3-week vacation in Italy. We planned it ourselves; no tour groups at all. In preparation, we spent a lot of time on Trip Advisor, a website where you can info on hotels, restaurants, museums, parks...you name it.
So, as you plan your stamping trip "From Here to There" I want you to find INSPIRATION on this site. Maybe the color of some beach umbrellas, or the rugged terrain at Machu Pichu. Perhaps you are inspired by a collection of photos.
To get you started, I am going to link up a few pages. Then feel free to explore. This is an Inspiration Challenge; don't be afraid to think outside the box.

Hi Sharon!
Yes, that site is filled with good stuff!
I love to travel, and have been blessed to take some amazing vacations. I didn't really look at Trip Advisor until hubby and I planned our Italian trip. We did everything on our own; no tour guide. It was amazing!

We've had snow , sleet, rain, thundersnow (that's when it's snowing and you hear thunder) all in the last 48 hours....we have several inches of snow and slush...ugh! It should melt by Monday or Tuesday....this better be it..so sick of it!
It took me longer to get picture and upload my card than doing it! Having computer issues. Oh well, onto next challenge! New Zealand and Australia are on my bucket list, so I found some parrots to inspire me! Here's my card:
My iPad mini has troubles with that site. So I just googled Japanese tea house and found an inspirational photo. Whew, I'm exhausted already, after just one card! Taking a tea break and catching up on the chatter. I'll post my photos later from the main computer downstairs.
As I take my break and read the chatter, my cat is going crazy. The sun reflects off the iPad screen onto the ceiling and she loves to chase lights like from a flashlight. She can't get at these ones on the ceiling! Silly kitty.
