We’re planning our Easter vacation (yes, I realize it’s a week away) and would love to hear ideas and favorite places from any of you. Friday we’ll head to Leeuwarden to spend 4-5 days with Evy and Hans, seeing the sights of The Netherlands, enjoying an Easter brunch with family (a condensed version), and drinking good coffee, which my grandma (Evy) is bringing straight from Bellingham.  After that, we have a week to spend any way we want to. We put off planning it because we weren’t sure if Tyler would have a job by this time, in which case we would have had to come back home after Easter. So now we’re less than a week away, with tons of options and no plan…please help!

Lis – I have a Dutch exchange student (30 ish) right now. I can ask her about sites in Holland. If you can get to Paris, stay on the Rue Cler at the Hotel Leveque. Here’s a link:

I think you can get a room for two for around 60 euros a night and it is a GREAT location and that includes a small breakfast. Everything you need is at your doorstep ~
Go to the Musee d’Orsay, Rodin’s museum, the Eiffel Tower- of course – the Louve, and just walk until you can’t walk anymore!
You can fly into Charles de Gaulle airport and take a bus into Paris. You will be there in a matter of hours and you will think you have died and gone to heaven! Enjoy!
Love,
J

Hi Lis and Tyler,
Sharon told me about your website so I just checked it out. Hope Tyler has found a “promising employment offer.” I was in Brussels, Bruge and Antwerp in October and enjoyed all three, and I’m sure you would also. Do hope you get to Paris and see the sights that Jennifer mentioned. Happy Easter!

Hey guys it seems like this adventure/vacation/job-opportunity trip is working out. I just wanted to let you know that the video-gram from the van Gogh museum was a wonderful treat(Although I am not sure if any of you should try for a broadcasting career). I hope the march around the rest of Europe is fun and full of excellent surprises. Miss ya tons!!!
