Aug 2022 - Trip to Leiden, Netherlands

Aug 2022 - Trip to Leiden, Netherlands  

 For our summer vacation we found a cute trailer camp with a theme park attached to it in Leiden, Netherlands. We loved visiting Scott and Mary Jane in Leiden during their mission and it was kind of like re-living the glory days. 

First we started off with the BEACH!

Don't take food from Strangers!

I love Rex's hair.  

This may be one of the only photos of Rex without a swim-shirt.

Yumm! Netherlands Fries.

And then we went back for more. 

Can you have too many fries?

Ike is a yummy snack

We rented these bike Karts, then rode them throughout the park and trailer camp.

After 6pm the rides stopped, but you could still wonder the park.  It was an amazing social place.

Ike and Jill. Scared of the hairpin roller coaster

Chloe and I took a morning ride before the parked opened

I love these towers scattered thru Europe.

Chloe, Excited to climb the stairs. 

The highest point in the Netherlands!

I don't know what's going on here, but I love it.

This has to be the kids idea, they'd never do something like this if we asked.

Walking thru Leiden

Windmill!

Say Cheese! Seriously, there was a lot of cheese.

 

We had to stop Chloe from touching the pidgin.  
If it doesn't fly away from you, it's a trap.

Look at that good looking couple.

We found the Natural History Museum. 

It was fantastic

Jill has trained the kids to mimic the status or paintings we find.

This visit was a proud moment for Jill.

Put a bird on it!

Don't fall Rex!

The Reproduction section of the museum.  

For this game you guided the sperm to feralization by bouncing on the red bean bag.

Ike has been fascinated with PingPong. Most parks and other community places have a outdoor table or two. So we bought a set with paddles and a few balls.  One day these boys will beat Forest Gump.

As a treat for scrolling to the bottom of this post, 

Here's Mike fulfilling a dream and doing the full 360.
