July 17th - The Long Drive


 Well, it’s time to start our way back to Amsterdam…a long drive ahead of us, but one that must be done.  After a leisure breakfast at the guesthouse we checked out and went to meet Antigone, Fabien, Jacques, and their friend Lisa at the Gars pool for one final dip.  Again, we were impressed with the waterslides and public pool layout…the river was there for swimming too, so it was perfect for a family day.  Unfortunately, after the lunch hour it was time for everyone to go.  Lisa had a plane to catch and Mae went along with Antigone and Fabien back to Vienna to continue her travels. Once all the goodbyes were said…it was time to go…we hope it won’t be long before we see our wonderful cousins again; hopefully they’ll make it to Canada soon.

We’re currently on the road and have been driving for about 8 hours.  Our thoughts are to go to Dusseldorf so that we might visit with Oliver’s relatives Heinz and Christiana.  From there we are thinking of going to Brussels for the day before heading to Amsterdam.  We’ll see, as one never knows what can happen while on the road.
