A Mother/Teen Daughter Travel Blog
Now that my mom has overcome her fear of driving, my life just keeps getting better and better! This past weekend, we spontaneously decided to head to the beach, as school is lurking just around the corner and we are certainly not ready to succumb to pencils and books just yet. No, we need a few more ‘sandy toes, sunburned nose’ memories for sure!
Not sure if it’s my Italian blood, but fine dining ranks right up there with breathing. Over the years, I’ve had significantly memorable experiences at many beautiful restaurants around the world, but there are only a handful that could be described as feeding more than just one’s appetite. Meson Sabika is one of those quintessential cuisines that is in a class all its own—an experience that feeds your soul.
For the past three years, we have begun a beautiful Christmas tradition. We head to Chicago for the most amazing German Winter Festival–The Christkindlmarket. This glorious festival instantly transports you into a snowy European village at Christmas time. From the smell of hot chocolate (with the best whipped cream) and spiced mulled wine, to the quaint wooden huts selling authentic German fare, to the twinkling lights and colorful Christmas decorations, the sweets, beer steins, and traditional German cuisine, –this place will certainly fill your heart with the spirit of Christmas!
