Pictures worth 11,000 words
We flew on Swiss Airlines this time and we were not surprised to have all Nestle products on the flight. But ice cream was a first for us on a plane, and since it was a hot day, it really hit the spot!
The three brothers at the top of the funicular in Paris (near Sacre Couer) taken from the inside of the funicular.
In the Louvre! Emrys, Geo, Sara and George.
Krissy and Geo with the Eiffel Tower lit up behind us. This was taken at 10:30 pm.
At Versailles, with the amazing fountains behind the amazing family we stayed with! Chantal, Fathi, Camille, Quentin, and Rosanne.
In Brussels, the Atomium. This was built for the World Fair in the 40s, I think.
Some famous statue in Brussels!
Yummy, a really good Belgian waffle!
Who know clogs were so cute? These were almost big enough for Geo's size 50 feet. I think these were 48s or 49s.
An old windmill in Amsterdam. I guess after the windmills were no longer needed, they destroyed most of them. There are only about 1000 left in all of the Netherlands. This one was built in 1632.
Finally, getting to show our colors for the Germany v. Portugal game. That was fun to be in Germany with Sabrina for the finals.
