Planes, trains and Christmas markets. We hopped on a train for Brussels and I must say the rail system in Europe is great, then we realized you could bring your own drinks on the trains. We watched a couple pull…
Flash back: The honeymoon around the world. Part 2 – Amsterdam
A little less adventure, same amount of beer. We only had about 2 days in Amsterdam so the adventuring was limited to mostly the the Centrum or city center. We arrived on a rainy day and had a little adventure trying…
