I believe I have seen one of the most beautiful garden’s in the world! It is Isolotto’s Bacin at Giardino di Boboli behind the Pitti Palace in Florence. It’s a beautiful lemon tree garden and water feature. I was overcome with amazement!!! I love it!
It’s wonderful to be back in Italy! We are here while Luc continues to work on his second Masters. It is a Masters Degree in International Development. I’m loving being back… hello GELATO!!!
We had a good stay in Belgium, even if it was very cold there! Luc got to spend some time with his 91 year old grandfather. He’s still doing well! After a weekend in the village of Houffaize we headed back to the city of Brussels for our flight the next day. We got to enjoy a walk through the Grand Place and had some Belgian fries along with some Belgian waffles.
We landed safely in Brussels on Wednesday morning, got into our rental car and drove straight to Holland. We’ve been having a good visit here with Luc’s Mom’s family. Yesterday, we visited Alkmaar for the first time. After at least 7 visits to Holland, I FINALLy saw the Alkmaar Cheese Market that I’ve always wanted to see! Today we will drive back to Belgium and stay in Houffalize at Luc’s grandfather’s house.
So our whole household didn’t quite fit in our allotted 20 foot container! So unfortunately we had to dig out several large pieces of furniture to leave behind… including our beloved babyfoot table (foozball)!
We have been packing the whole family on the moto now that the car has been sold. So much left to do, so little time left before our big move!
