Day Trip Edition: Nancy, France

Tuesday, February 2, 2016

Brad has had some surprising time off on weekends lately that has been glorious. Nancy, France was just another cute city we wanted to mark off our long growing list. It's just about an hour in a half drive from us. Being from Texas we all know that is cake. We spent the day dodging the rain, eating Beignets, and seeing the sights. The people we encountered were super sweet too! People have a notion of the French, but it is definitely not true with most cases we have come in contact with. Open minds, open hearts!

Here is our photo dump of the trip, Enjoy!











You know we had to end our trip with coffee and crepes. Mine has mango and raspberry ice cream inside with Nutella drizzle. YUM!



Next we head to Ghent, Belgium for a 2 day trip on Saturday. Keep your eyes peeled. :)

A Day Trip to Maastricht, Netherlands

Thursday, November 5, 2015

My brother is here in Europe spending 10 days with us. You know we had to hit up as many countries as possible. We are sticking to anything 2 hours or less around us. We will have hit 5 countries in all, including Luxembourg. After exploring Luxembourg and Trier, which we are pros at we decided to explore a beautiful city in the Netherlands. Maastricht is a beautifully historic city with lots of great shopping and treats. I love the design and set up of all the homes and buildings in the Netherlands. I added an extra 50 photos of them to my collection from Easter. The gorgeous, sunny, 62 degree weather we had made our day much better. We have had lots of gloom and rain as of late here in Lux. I won't ransack with hundreds of photos. Here are a few of my favorites from the day. Enjoy!
