10 Day Challenge: Day 5

Today's challenge is 6 places, not sure if that's places you want to see, or already love so I mixed it up.



1. Number one for a reason: Palouse Falls, Idaho
My family has a lot of memories here, camping together. I loved this place as a child, and still do to this day. I haven't had the opportunity to take my daughter yet, but I want to. It's gorgeous there. I've actually stood up at the top of the falls, we climbed up there with my parents when I was younger. :)




2. Gig Harbor, Wa
Gig Harbor is where I lived with my ex. Despite the tourist-y atmosphere, It is gorgeous there. Mt. Rainier is not far away, and usually is the backdrop for this beautiful place.

Katy's paternal grandparents still live in the area, so we still see it every now and again. And every time I go, I love it.









3. Sicily
My namesake and heritage. I am half sicilian, and I've always wanted to go so I can learn more about the customs, and my own heritage. One day I will go there. And I'll probably confuse the locals when I say "Il mio nome e Sicily!"( My name is Sicily- I do know a little italian) :D







4. Cesme Peninsula, Turkey
Not necessarily un-heard of, but definitely not as main stream a destination like Hawaii. This place is GORGEOUS!!



I love these beutiful pictures of the Aegean Sea hitting the beaches of Cesame.









5. As much as I'd love to see other far away places, I am very proud of Idaho. We actually have four seasons unlike a lot of places in the world.
We are a mixture of beautiful farm land, gorgeous rivers, campgrounds, with some pretty cool attractions.

One of my favorites being McCall, Idaho for all the winter activities they have. I love the Pancake and Christmas House. I went there and after eating a delicious breakfast, I shopped for christmas items! So much fun!!

6. Hawaii
For obvious reasons I have always wanted to go to Hawaii. It is so beautiful there. It's always been a favorite of mine, and also my mom's. I hope to take her there one day. :)
