Highlights from the first few days...

Highlights so Far:

-Train ride to Baltimore
-The kids first flights (the slept well on the 2nd flight)
-A great wedding celebration (with child-care the whole time!)
-Getting to go into a working windmill (you know, one of the ones from the 1800's that they still use to actually mill corn into cornmeal...they are a little tough to climb into, especially with a 3 year old in your arms!)
-GREAT food (and trying some new things...like pureed duck liver and a goose salad sort of thing)
-Bacon wrapped filet!
-Kids making ice cream sundaes in the kitchen of a very nice restaurant with the chef
-Everyone is sleeping BEAUTIFULLY. The kids are sleeping until we have to wake them up around 9 AM
-Watching the kids play with and find a way to communicate with Emma, Daan, Stein and Tim...all of whom only speak Dutch

Looking forward to:
-Boat ride to Rotterdam for lunch
-Heading back to Rotterdam to watch the game tonight (Holland vs. Spain) with Jeroen and Hilda
-Heading to Renkum to spend a few days with Onno and Myrna and their kids
-Air-conditioning when we get home!
