Our Adventure Begins




We had been talking about going for a while now, but it kind of seemed like a dream that we were actually going to live in the Netherlands. After many difficult goodbyes, we had the house packed up, boarded the plane, and were on our way!






We arrived the morning of December 29,2013. It was admittedly very exhausting trying to stay up all day. The first night we stayed at a Hilton in Amsterdam. It was within walking distance to the Museum district. We had dinner at the Hard Rock Cafe. Our table overlooked a canal! We then walked around the area. The city was busy and it was such a nice night. There were two outdoor ice skating rinks and we enjoyed having a white chocolate covered waffle from a waffle stand for dessert. Yum!! You'll have to try one when you come to visit!





I've created this blog to share some of our experiences while we live in the Netherlands. I hope you enjoy it!
