The first day of school is next Tuesday, Sept. 1st. The girls will be going to the International School of Breda. It is about a 15 minute bike ride from our house to the school, which is nice. This week we have been biking there and back, figuring out the fastest and best routes. I will post more pics in another post of the houses and other city sites between here and the school. I just wanted to share a few pics I took yesterday when we made the trek because it was such a nice day.
3 street down from our house is a playground for our neighborhood. The girls go here often, and they meet other kids who live in the area and have been making friends. I didn’t realize until recently that there are sheep that graze on this hill. This hill is a divide and sound barrier to a highway on the other side (you really can hear no noise!!). But occasionally when I have the windows open, and the sheep are close enough, I hear them baaing and bleating.
On the way to the school, we go through a park-like area and cross a small river. There are cows and horses all over the area, and the girls love seeing them!
We also go through part of a forest – Mastbos – and I will get pictures of that another day. We plan on biking to school on the first day – I will be sure to take pics of that too!
