Travels with a baby - Doorwerth, Netherlands

Place to stay: Golden Tulip Arnhem Doorwerth

We had a fantastic stay at Doorwerth. Like I said it was our very first trip with Jr. and we wanted to go not too far from home. The hotel is located in a park zone and has a lovely terrace where we sat and had beers in the afternoon sun. There were also tennis courts as we noticed... and contemplated being interested in tennis as we drank our beers. (No really, we'll seriously be all over that because I just ordered expensive tennis raquets for both of us!)

Anyway, for just a bit more we upgraded to a suite and Jr. had his own room :).

Activities: Walking or biking

We decided to take it easy and just walked around with the baby carriage. The weather was fantastic and the surrounding parks beautiful. The hotel is a convenient 20 minute walk from Kasteel Doorwerth. All around the castle there are numerous bike and walking paths available that lead you through the surrounding forrest. We didn't go too crazy, just walked to the castle had lunch on the terrace and walked back. After all we wanted to be 'on time' for beers at the hotel! I'm sorry... so how exactly did our life ''change'' after having a baby??

I think we'll be ok, our next trip is already planned too! Another one in the Netherlands because we're still a bit chickens, but after that we'll tackle something a bit more adventurous.

Vaccination by travel!

Our trip was fantastic! We went for long walks in the forest, lunched by a castle, got a bit of a tan, had beers in the sunshine, ate dinners at restaurants and we even had a night cap at the bar. Most importantly, Jr loved it all! I think we have successfully injected this boy with the travel bug! Later details...

First trip with a baby!

Wohoo! The day has come to embark on our very first trip with our little Jr. He is 2 and a half months and we thought it's about time to introduce him to the jet setting lifestyle that we as his parents will expect him to indulge in with us. We starting of nice and easy by spending the weekend in the south near a forest. We are super curious to see how this will go! Ten minutes into the trip and so far so good! :) Verzonden vanaf mijn draadloze BlackBerry®-toestel

Special kind of high

Does anyone else make hot chocolate by melting a bar of chocolate in the microwave?? Add a pinch of red pepper and feel the magic!
