This blog began when our family moved to Delft, The Netherlands in 2008. We have since returned to the USA, but kept the title along with many fond memories.

Malta and Gozo
A plane taken from Schiphol to Valletta, Malta, a car ride from the airport to the ferry terminal, the ferry ride itself, and another short car ride to the beautiful villa in Gozo.
mygozovilla.com is the website of where we are staying if you'd like to check it out.
It's a tastefully decorated 3 story place with the perfect sized swimming pool, 4 spacious bedrooms, and red accents throughout the house.
We tried a restaurant called Oleander - we ordered fried rabbit, the local favored cuisine. First night, we all jumped in the pool for a quick dip after the long travel day.
Day 2- We got to the Ramla Beach before 9:30 AM and stayed for about 6 hours. The crystal clear water in all shades of blue, coupled with orange sand, 83 degrees air temp with a slight breeze, and cheap beach snacks and ice cream made for an excellent day.
FEASTS are a series of saint celebrations traveling from parish to parish all over the island. A mass, a procession, fireworks, and food stands were all the rage. See Lucas respond to the continued popping and cracking of some simple but loud fireworks.
Day 3- We love beach- need we say more.

Fun with Grammy
Grammy and Aunt Becky came for a blitz visit after their whirlwind weekend in Paris. We were thrilled to see them and delighted they made the long trip. We explored Delft together, went on a canal tour, ran around the beach, played dress up at home, made valentines, and visited the Escher Museum.
