It’s Been a While…

November 23, 2015

Sorry it’s been a while since I’ve made a post.  The girls have both had stomach bugs, at different times, and that pretty much took up most of my time the past couple of weeks!  Both are now much better, so I’m hoping that after catching up on some lost sleep (yeah right) our life … More It’s Been a While…

Let’s Talk Grocery Shopping

November 13, 2015

Ahhhh…the grocery store. Some people like the grocery store (though I have never met one of these people in real life).  The rest of us hate it.  Since moving to the Netherlands, navigating my way through the grocery store is an almost daily occurrence.  Why you might ask?  Because my refrigerator is about the size … More Let’s Talk Grocery Shopping

Day Six: A Day Trip to Provins

November 9, 2015

I wanted to do at least one day trip away from Paris while we were in France, but I had no idea where to go.  So I went to trusty TripAdvisor, and Provins kept popping up with many rave reviews.  So I thought…why not!  And it did NOT disappoint! By train, Provins is about 1.5 … More Day Six: A Day Trip to Provins

Day Five: The Louvre Museum

November 7, 2015

I had our final guided tour with Paris Muse booked for the Louvre Tour.  We were to meet our guide under The Arc du Carrousel.  Just look at the detail in the ceiling of the arch…    It was a cloudy day, so I’m glad the weather held off until we were on an INSIDE tour!  It … More Day Five: The Louvre Museum

Day Four: Bike Tour Around Versailles

November 5, 2015

When I mentioned I wanted to visit Versailles, the travel agent I was using suggested we do a bike tour.  I thought…as long as they have bikes/transportation for the girls – cool!  So a guided tour with Bike About Tours was booked. If you ever go to Versailles….Book This Tour!!  That’s all I can say!  … More Day Four: Bike Tour Around Versailles

Day Three Evening: The Eiffel Tower!

November 4, 2015

Littlest has known about the Eiffel Tower since she was about 18 months old and saw it on the kid show Little Einsteins.  She’s known it’s in Paris, France, and she’s been wanting to see it since we moved here and we told her Paris was about a 4 hour car ride from our house.  She was even … More Day Three Evening: The Eiffel Tower!

Day Three Morning: Paris Discovery Walking Tour

November 2, 2015

The Discovery Walking Tour was the second guided tour I booked.  I had read good things about it, and it ended up being very nice!  We learned a lot of interesting little facts about Paris, and the original city of Paris along the way.  I didn’t take many pictures during the walk, as you really … More Day Three Morning: Paris Discovery Walking Tour

Day Two Afternoon: Notre Dame Tour

November 1, 2015

After walking around the streets for a bit, we were a bit tired and MyMan and I hung out on the benches in this park behind Notre Dame while the girls played.  There is a small playground under the trees, and lots of benches on the other side.    We walked around to the front of … More Day Two Afternoon: Notre Dame Tour

Day Two Morning: Street Markets and a Stroll

November 1, 2015

Our first real day started on Sunday.  Luckily it was a day of street markets so we could get some food to stock up on, and see what all the French markets had to offer.  They did not disappoint!  This particular market was located 2 blocks from where we were staying, underneath the train tracks. … More Day Two Morning: Street Markets and a Stroll
