After the meet, we took a little vacation and went to Brugge, Belgium and Amsterdam. We loved the Christmas Markets, beautiful buildings, and history. One of our favorite things was seeing the Van Leeuwen name plastered everywhere.
Check out the sign on this car dealership. Our name is not so different anymore, huh Van Leeuwens?
We loved the windmills, wooden shoes, and delft blue china in every shop. Boy, we Dutchmen/women sure know how to make a good doughnut, too. Two of our favorite places to visit were the Anne Frank museum and the Reijks Museum. After going to the concentration camp in Germany, the Anne Frank house really tied it all together for us. And who can say no to Rembrandt? We are now back in Spain and the only way to get rid of the home sickness is to go on more trips. Join us again when we play "Where in the world is the Casperson Family?"

Finally!!! I have been waiting for you guys to post forever! You lucky travelers. It looks like you had tons of fun and were able to visit some great places. Of course, I am jealous.
Hi there! It is great to get these updates on what everyone is doing. You have had so many amazing adventures! What a wonderful opportunity for your family. I can't believe Joseph is 5! Caroline turns 5 next month. Strange, isn't it? We miss you guys. Take care and keep on writing!
Love,
Carrie and co.
