We spent today recovering from our zoo trip and straightening up. After dinner, we took a short walk to the mailbox which have been converted from red to orange boxes. We mailed some postcards and came back home. Jim came home very late from his weeklong trip to Vienna, Austria.
His trip was fine; though a bit of culture shock. One of his few emails said: "Things going ok for now!! Sitting in a room with a bunch of Austrians,who are all typing and clicking and chain-smoking. Seriously." It sounded like the IT guys who he was working with didn't speak much English, liked to drink and one had a hobby of making his own schnapps. Needless to say, we now have two nice bottles of cherry and peppermint schnapps to bring home! It was quite hot and the guys wore shorts and sandals. A little different from the typical business attire in Europe. Jim was glad he left his ties in his suitcase!

Eliot and Miles moved from Boulder, CO to Delft, The Netherlands for the summer. Traveling from this old village, where will their adventures take the boys with their mommy (and daddy) for a guide?
