Food, Farms, Flamingos and Nearly 2300 miles on Foot - 2015 in Review - Our Top Travel Experiences of the Year

2015 was one heck of a year for our travels and for wearing out the soles of my shoes! I've made a habit each year of recapping the places we've been and the distances we've walked (see past installments:  2009, 2010, 2011, 2012, 2013, 2014).  I present to you, dear readers, my travel blogging stats for 2015!


In total, I walked 2281 miles as measured by Google Fit and using a 3 feet per step conversion factor to turn steps into miles. This represents my single highest total for any of the 7 years I've been blogging.
