Picknick in the park!

Sam felt a little better this morning so we decided to go for a stroll around the Seine and a picknick in the park right under the Eifel Tower! The shades of the tree gave a bit of cooling so he could lay down. We all had a snooze and enjoyed our “home made” baguettesContinue reading “Picknick in the park!”

A stroll along The Seine…

Sam felt a little better and so we set off for a little walk along The Seine on our way to The Eifel Tower. We took the underground which Guido loved! I think it was the very first time for him so he kept on asking me questions how it worked and when we wouldContinue reading “A stroll along The Seine…”

Montmartre!

Sam left  with Miguel to the hospital early morning. He had fever and his lymph nodes at the right side of his throat were swollen. Poor kid! We are here to celebrate his birthday and my “blondie” gets sick :(..

Biking on the “Hei”..

Today we made a beautiful bike ride on ” The Hei”. It has become a tradition to take them on a ride from HR to Hilversum for a picknick and an ice cream on our way home. Boys being boys, they couldn’t stop “funnying” around. It is such a great playfield for them!

Amsterdam!

On our way back from Haarlem, we stopped for lunch in Amsterdam. The boys know the city by now but I never had shown them my faculty of Law where I studied for 6 years. So we headed to the centre of town for lunch at Cafe van Daelen, one of my favourite places andContinue reading “Amsterdam!”

Haarlem bound!

Beach days in Haarlem! We are back in Haarlem. Spending a few days with my girfriend Imre and her boys. We always love to come back to this city. It is like “mini Amsterdam”! This year, we headed straight to the beach though. With temperatures around 30 degrees, it was the best thing to do.Continue reading “Haarlem bound!”

Cruising with my baby :)

Ruben is off! All alone on his way to the airport in Denpasar. For the very first time he is going alone on the plane.
