Gerry, the owner of our apartment, had invited us for coffee at his house on Oude Delft. We walked down to his house armed with umbrellas - it was going to rain for sure. The boys had each gotten new umbrellas; Eliot was quite excited to carry his. He got to use it! We had a nice visit. Gerry's niece and nephew were visiting from British Virgin Islands (with their parents), and they played with the boys. Corey commented that Miles does funny things. Unsure if I wanted to know, I asked him what Miles did. He said Miles would take one bite of the snack and put it back in the bowl. Yes, that sounded like Miles.
When we started to leave, the rain was pouring down, so we stayed a bit hoping it would slow down. When it cleared we left, but the respite was short-lived and we got drenched on our 10-minute walk home. I suppose we are going to have to get used to this for the winter season!

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?
