This was John's birthday surprise for me! I had no idea what we were doing. He was full of surprises that week. First dinner, then the batting cages, and then the weekend of my birthday we went parasailing! Another thing crossed off our bucket list! I was terrified at first, but a few minutes after we got all the way up, I started...

This trip was for our 3rd Wedding Anniversary. We decided instead of buying each other things, we'd spend it on a get away. So after Luray Caverns, we stayed the night in Charlottesville so that we can explore the city some more. Charlottesville is where UVA is located at (University of Virginia). The campus is definitely something I wasn't used to seeing. A...

The caverns were breathe taking! I thought I’d feel claustrophobic in there, but it was surprisingly very big and spacious! The drive to Luray was like driving to nowheresville! Lol! I loved the drive through the Shenandoah Valley, but after that I just went to sleep.  It was a little chilly when we got down to the caverns! It was about a 2 hour...

Our first time on a cruise! 5 days 4 nights on the Carnival Sensation. We drove to Port Canaveral, and whew! That was a long almost 12 hours drive! Totally worth it though! Our first stop was Freeport, Bahamas and then Nassau, Bahamas where we swam with Dolphins!! I recommend going on at least one cruise in your life time. This will definitely...

Off to NYC we went again! This was my third visit to the city and I swear there's always something new to do. We went for New Years Eve with another couple (our housemates). They're foodies, so we did a lot of eating and trying new food, plus his cousin was showing us around, which helped! It was hard walking around cuz it...

One of my birthday gifts from John in 2012 was some outdoors fun. We went Stand Up Paddleboarding for the first time! I forgot where we did it, but it was somewhere in Virginia Beach at the Oceanfront area. I think it was closer to where the light house is. Anyway, we did a 2 hour paddle board along a lake, which was...

Cedar Run / White Oaks Trail: 6.5 hours of hiking, waterfalls and natural water slides. It rained on us in the middle of our hike and for a few minutes we were lost and I was so scared because I didn't know if we’d make it out. It got so dark in the woods because of the clouds and rain. Branches were falling...

I took John out for some nature fun and zip lining adventures for his birthday. This was when we first started to document our travels and adventures via 'vlogs' and its also how we came about the name (& now hashtag) 'Adventures of EJJE'... it was originally our youtube name. I haven't kept up with the vlog. I used to do daily ones,...

Took a trip to Colonial Williamsburg for the first time when my dad came to visit us. I felt like I traveled back to the 1800's or something! There were people in costumes, and a canon show. It was like being inside a history book for a quick moment!  ...

This trip was for our 2nd Wedding Anniversary, and it was magical! We started our trip with a 10 hour drive to Orlando! Whew! Our first park was Magic Kingdom on the day of our actual anniversary. We wore matching ‘Mr & Mrs’ shirts and Mickey and Minnie ears as you can see in the pictures. We had a lot of compliments that...

Took a quick day trip to the Outer Banks (OBX), North Carolina. It wasn't too far from where we lived, maybe an hour to an hour and half drive. We went during the spring so it wasn't as crowded as it would be if you went during the summer. We mainly stayed in the Corolla area. ...

John & I took a quick trip home for our housemates wedding. They're from San Diego too. So while we were there, we took the opportunity to visit John's family in Las Vegas and took a quick drive to Hoover Dam with my family. It was our first time at the dam, pretty interesting! On our way back to Vegas, we got lost...

This isn't our first trip to Disneyland, but I cant seem to find any of the ones from all the previous years we went. This trip was after our wedding and we took our family who was visiting from Australia. They were all so excited because it was their first time in America.  Edited (March 27, 2015) -- I FOUND THEM!! I was...
