Kinderdijk on Bike

Windmills. Quintessentially Dutch. There are under one thousand historic windmills left in the Netherlands. Kinderdijk is a UNESCO World Heritage Site with 19 historic windmills. These windmills were used to pump water out from the land, which rests up to 7 meters below sea level. A diesel/electric pump hooked to an Archimedes screw now does the […]

Sail Amsterdam

Sail Amsterdam (SAIL) happens once every five years. It is one of the largest tall ship festivals in the world. The 2015 date happened to fall on our first full week in the Netherlands. We couldn’t resist the chance to see it because we won’t be living here the next time it comes to town in 2020. […]

London with Toddlers

Our trip to London was a quick three-day visit nestled between the end of our Queen Mary 2 trip and setting off for mainland Europe on the Channel Tunnel. In 2013, just after H’s first birthday we spent 10 days in England which included a few days in London. On that first trip with H we hit […]

It is my understanding that summer voyages have more children on board then the rougher winter crossings. We were one of several families using the QM2 to move our family overseas. Here are […]

Most of the places we went to eat cannot accommodate your stroller. Our small umbrella stroller easily folds and stores. We’ve thrown it […]

Queen Mary 2 Crossing – Top 10

Here are my Top 10 favorite (or favorite) things about the Queen Mary 2 crossing. 1. Watching the ocean. I assumed there would be nothing to see. I was wrong. The ocean changes colors with the weather. The waves increase and decrease causing entirely different patterns. Spotting another boat is thrilling. After not seeing any […]

Three Days in NYC with Toddlers.

I have a love, hate relationship with NYC. I love all the things there are to do in the city. I hate how crowded it always feels. I love all the architecture. I hate all the smells. I love all the languages I hear walking down the street. I hate how expensive everything is. In […]

Queen Mary 2 – Embarkation Day with Kids

Day 1: Embarkation Day Well done Cunard! I applaud the speed and efficiency of your embarkation procedures. We are in no way cruise experts. Jeff and I have been on a few cruises together before we had kids: Western Caribbean on Carnival, Alaska & Baja Mexico on Princess Cruises. I also cruised in the Caribbean […]
