The Drive to Italy, a photojournal

It all started in a Czech snowstorm. An October snowstorm, that is...

As US expats living in Prague, we had the incredible privilege of driving to Italy for a vacation. The trip as a whole took our breath away-- Italy, and the the entire trip there and back, had a beauty beyond what we could have dreamed. And truly, the vacation was a dream come true.

Through the Prague snowstorm, into Germany and passing into the Austrian Alps, we crossed freshly frosted mountains and passed dozens of ancient castles. Our adventure to Italy was amazing. The photos from this leg of our journey (to Italy from Prague) make up blog one of three in a coming series.

I hope you enjoy the View through My Lens ...

Leaving Siena, we drove southwest to the charming villa we rented in Tuscany overlooking the Mediterranean Sea.

Enjoy the day! -Jennifer
