Made it safe to Marseille, France. Rainy day on arrival but we made the best of it by grocery shopping and cooking up a wonderful dinner of steak, handmade mashed potatoes and veggies. It was a loooonnnggg train ride from Brussels, but the kids were great….well….ok, for the most part. Actually they did really well….

Seemed only fitting since we were heading to Marseille, France tomorrow to have an official Paris, France Remix sendoff. Hope you enjoy!!!!

With tomorrow our last day in Brussels, we decided to take it easy and begin the preparations for the early exit for the south of France and Italy. We hit up a few of our favorite spots, e.g. Parc Park, the Manneken Pis (we were all wrong on our guesses, no outfit at all today…believe…

Brussels>Frankfurt>Munich>Frankfurt>Brussels. Oh yes this happened in one weekend. This was our mission if so chose to accept it..which we did. Sept. 26, 27, 28 Brussels>Frankfrurt>Munich>Frankfurt>Brussels Mike and I decided to take the short ones to Oktoberfest to enjoy the fair. Since Munich was about a 7 hour train ride we decided to break up the…

Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday (September 23-25) Encountering rain on Tuesday, we opted for a stay-in day. We had a lot of tasks to run including me going all over the city of Brussels while the family chilled at the house. This included things like going to the bank, talking to the post office on the damage…

So what do you do on a cold rainy day in Brussels and have “travel hang over” from the day before on a loooonnnggg day trip and sight-seeing adventure in Paris…well start a Weatherly Travel’s Youtube Channel and create the first ever Weatherly Travels Pic Mix of course! It only seemed fitting to go with…

Paris, France – ah, yes the city of lights, romance, luxury, culture, fine cuisine, where the rich bare no expense and the people speak the language of love….and then there was the Weatherly’s from Virginia Beach….yep, we crashed it….because that’s how we roll….and it was awesome!!! Cue the crazy clown car, circus music, you know…

Sometimes it’s good to just stop and smell the roses….literally….today was that day. So once a year in Brussels, they shut the entire city down from car traffic and offer free public transportation via buses, trams and trains. No car traffic…zip, zero, nada. You can’t drive a car in the entire city unless you are…

September 20 – Ghent, Belgium Rested from the Leffe Brewery and the ascent to the Dinant Citadel, we decided to play it safe today and stay close to Brussels. Ghent, Belgium on the list of heard about ‘you can’t miss’ cities, yet never explored by the Weatherly Tribe, other than couch-surf traveling via a House…

September 19 – Dinant, Belgium (pronounced Di na’) So this morning we got a nice refresher on how when trains split, you don’t want to be on the wrong side…we set out from Brussels this morning on the way to Dinant…only about a 1.5 hour train ride from Brussels. What should have been a quick…

Just a recap of yesterday, I took the kids to le parc again but this time we stayed for a loooong time. I ran them up and down the hill, made them hike up to the old chateau ( which is a photography school ) and then back to the green hill. The kids “saved”…

This week Mike is working during the week and since I am not brave enough to conquer the metro system alone ( due to my lack of direction ) I have opted for the nearby park. The past two days have been: PARK, LUNCH, LESSONS, NAP, SEAN THE SHEEP, and then by then Mike is…
