The City of Nimes

By -
After our adventure in Annecy we went to another city called Nimes. We stayed in a guest house connected to a other house but smaller, we stayed there for 4 days and had a lot of fun!



The family that owned the house had 3 kids and a dog . They stayed in the house while we were in the house too. The guest house was also big too. It had two bathrooms two bedrooms a kitchen and a living room too.



While we were in Nimes we saw some really cool sights, including a Arena and Aqueduct! The Arena was where the Romans played a sport where they fought each other and animals too. They ended up killing each other.








The Aqueduct was where the Romans built a bridge to bring water to the city. We did a listening tour at the Arena and swam across the whole river at the Aqueduct. It was super fun!




We had a great time in Nimes and I hope to visit there again!! Anyways, our next stop is Montpelier! Can't wait! Bye!

In 2017, our family of five (3 kids ages 9, 8 and 6 at the time) embarked on a global adventure for one year. My husband and I decided to home school our children and take them on a journey of world exploration -- exposing them to various cultures, people, food, religions and everything else in between. Grateful for this privilege and our amazing experience. Exploring Venice, Italy on the waterways Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn’t do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines, sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.  -- Mark Twain I had planned the first three months of our trip to Europe when we were still in the States, hitting the countries of France, Spain, Portugal, Italy and Croatia.

Hello NYC!!

Day 1: We arrive in New York! Wow, are we so tired. We just came off a plane flight from Denver and had to wake up at 4:30 to make the shuttle ride to the airport. It is 10:00 AM right now because of time change so we are going to get some lunch because we are SO hungry (and tired).  So we check into our hotel room which is barely big enough to fit us and take a quick shower. Then we go exploring! We walk to a restaurant that my mom had planned before, which happened to be about 45 minutes away, but New York is fun to explore so we of course just walk.  My mom told us along the walk that we were going to this restaurant called “Stardust.” So apparently, people that are good actors and singers that wanted to get a job on Broadway come to this place to be waiters. They sing songs, they also have lots of entertainment, and awesome milkshakes. We ordered and then watched all the waiters sing. It was incredible! They even had confetti! The down side, we had to wait for abou...
