We are taking our first trip outside of Holland this weekend, a last minute idea since Alex took his son, AJ, back to the US and we have his car to get around. Being in Holland allows you to travel fairly easily to other countries. Holland is only 16,000 sq miles roughly half the size of the state of South Carolina; Belgium & Germany are only a short drive away.
Our first trip will be to Bruges, Belgium. Sometimes referred to as the "Venice of the North" because of the role the canals play in the city center.
We'll post more when we get back from our trip on Sunday. If you want to check out Brugges while we are gone, here is a link to their
tourism page (they have info in english).
