I spent a lovely couple of days in Ghent and will return at another time as it was better than Brugge, Cheaper and not so many tourists! From Belguin it is only a skip and a jump plus €6 for a toll to the Nederlands and my first stop near to the Keurkenhof ... Read more >

  He was my North, South, my West and East... I've heard so much about him and imagined myself there so many times. Amsterdam met me with sun and rain, he was opening his best and worth parts to me.  Every traveler opens his own Amsterdam and leaves ... Read more >

Up early today to move from one hotel to another.  Wanted to relocate (not only because the proprietor of previous hotel kinda creeps me out) to be closer to the train station for tomorrows departure on the fast train.  Of course, closer to the central ... Read more >

Time is NOT relative

For a successful adventure, not only do you have to get your own time sorted out, you need to coordinate that with your travel partner.  I actually stayed up to 2AM last night.  (I would have never bet on that.) On the other hand, Daryl did the early ... Read more >

It was back to the Monday routine as we helped get Dino ready for school before he and Jeanine left for their day. Jeanine is away until Wednesday so we had to say our goodbyes to them both this morning- very sad... After breakfast ... Read more >

Another tasty and relaxed breakfast consumed before we rugged up and headed out to visit Jeanine’s Opa. We were hoping to take him out to enjoy the autumn goodness but he was a bit under the weather so a quick visit was all that we managed.... Read more >
