Chelsea and Ryan made their very first trip to Europe to visit Dan and I in late May/early June. They got a whirlwind tour of this little corner of the world visiting six cities in four different countries in only twelve days! We introduced them to life in Wiesbaden, visiting the Saturday morning market in the Marktplatz, having a picnic in Kurpark, and giving them a taste of brats and crepes at Wilhelmstrasse Fest. We also visited some wineries on the Rhine and took a day trip to Trier, Germany’s oldest city, and Bernkastel, a quaint little town on the Mosel River.
After all of that our visitors ventured off to Venice, Italy, to meet up with Ryan’s parents for a few days. They had a great time eating pizza, pastries and gelato and enjoying the beautiful canals.
When they got back we headed to the land of prostitutes and marijuana…Amsterdam! It definitely wasn’t our favorite city but it was an experience, and the boys thoroughly enjoyed the Heineken Brewery tour. Lastly, we met up with our cousin, Molly, in Brussels, Belgium, for some waffles, chocolate, and Belgian beer.
aww! so much yummy food! i was thinking Amsterdam would be quite the experience!!
