Dubrovnik, Croatia

The walls are the main characteristic of Dubrovnik, they surrounded the whole city which was built in the 14 century. The wall is 75 feet high and over 6,ooo ft and completely walkable.
The cruise ship has to deep of a draft so we tendered in on small ferries.

Terry and Isaiah walked along the walls that encircled the old city, here they stop to admire the breathtaking view.

A quite picturesque back street of Dubrovnik

Venice, Italy

Venice is considered the city of art, romance and prestige. This beautiful architecture was built on 150 islands separated by canals.

The Grand Canal being the main waterway which offered the most beautiful view of the city. This is the entrance to St. Mark's square.

Looking at one of the 400 bridges over a canal entering Venice.

One of the many beautiful churches seen as we past Venice in the cruise ship.

Terry and Isaiah window shopping again!

Moscow

After our 7 day cruise, Isaiah stayed 3 more days in Moscow. Eventhough we returned back to work, we were able to show him around Moscow.

In front of St. Basil Church in Red Square.

One of the many very detailed iconoclastic chapels inside St. Basil.

Outside the Kremlin.

Isaiah putting back the 12 ton piece that fell off. No Problem!!

It had been 1 1/2 years since we had seen Isaiah, so this trip was more than just a trip. We spent some good quality time with each other. He headed to Seoul, Korea and caught
a train back to Camp Walker in Teagu, Korea
