| Watching the sun go down on 2010 |
Though this trip seems like it was ages ago, it was actually just the beginning of this month. As our farewell trip and one last dose of vitamin D before the frozen tundra, Justin and I headed to
Gran Canaria for some fun in the sun. It was also where we rang in 2011.
Without set plans for the big evening, we opted to stay in and eat Spanish style junk food. Sounds a bit lame, I know, but it actually turned out to be perfect. As the clock struck midnight we watched the island set off fireworks from every direction. It was the perfect close to an exciting year!

| Mountain tour on New Year's day |
New Years day was spent driving around the breathtaking mountain side and getting off the beaten path. The back country was beautiful and reminded us of Arizona with red rocks and rolling hills. The island itself was quite rundown, and over developed on the coast, but our hotel was awesome with infinity pool after infinity pool (we stayed
here).

With loads of relaxation, some spa treatments and a dab sun, it was a great way to close our European adventure. Thank you to everyone who followed us during our six months in Nussloch. We had a great time documenting our travels through this blog and we loved hearing from you all! Here's to our next chapter and to a happy and healthy 2011!
