Windmill

After Amsterdam, we drove to another small town, this one called Hoogersmilde. Our rental house is inside of a state park and has a huge backyard, but in the Netherlands, they call backyards gardens! Anyway, it has two tree houses, a trampoline, and plenty of extra space! Also, the neighbors have ponies. We have seen to many horses to count around here!Β

Cow tour

During our time in Amsterdam, we stayed at a small, 8th generation Dutch dairy farm on the outskirts of a small town called Weesp.Β  My favorite part about our stay was the tour of the farm that was given by one of the farmers. I got to see her dog, and I loved to pet the calfs (they licked me a lot, did you know that they don't have teeth?)!!!Β

The bean.

The kids and I drove to Chicago to fly and we made a pit-stop at Millennium Park before boarding. We wanted to see "the Bean" again and then also discovered the wonderful Maggie Daley park across a snaking pedestrian bridge, where we burned off some energy before our flight.
