My dad and I went on an amazing three week european adventure in April/May 2015. First stop was a quick layover in London, England; then to Stavenger, Norway the next day to visit Astrid (our former exchange student) and her family.

Next, Paris France…Astrid came with us.

Eiffel Tower
Our hotel room was tiny!
Sacre Couer
Arc De Triumph

The Louvre
Then on to Amsterdam Netherlands…the hostel experience was NOT a highlight.
Spain on Cinco de Mayo felt appropriate.
We drove through the Swiss Alps listening to the sound of music. Switzerland, Germany, and Austria were probably my favorite countries.
Italian food in Italy and all of the historical sites were amazing.
