…when spent in Syria, are beautiful.

Where have I been? Ameir and I took a beautiful two-week vacation to Syria. We spent time with family, visited old Roman ruins and an Ottoman fort, explored the narrow alleyways of Old Damascus, had breakfast on the Mediterranean coast, and in general, ate entirely too much.

I have many, many pictures to share with you, but here are just a few to whet your appetite.
