re: Your Greatest Travel Moment

I have two

The first was just after entering the Plaza del Toros with a bull on my arse. Taking a step back from the chaos and realizing how great the last 4 weeks of traveling had been and ending it in Pamplona, Spain for the running of the bulls. A surprisingly emotional moment.

The second was attending the sposi novelli at the Vatican on our honeymoon. My wife and I got married in our local church and the priest told us about this when he found out we were doing part of our honeymoon in Rome. I honestly wasn't expecting much and didn't do a lot of research. Next thing you know we are seated on the stage with the Pope with about 50 other newly weds. After mass Pope Francis blessed each couple individually and when he got to us my wife offered him a new hat, he laughed, took his off and traded hats, it sits in a glass case in our home. I'm not very religious but the moment was bigger than I imagined.
