Fun Europe Trip!

We spent two weeks in Europe, first visiting friends and family, catching up with both my brothers, then off to do our own exploring.



We used points to stay at Hilton Hotels in The Hague, Amsterdam, Brussels and Paris, thanks to our favorite American Express Hilton Honors Ascend card. Between these and good friends, we managed to minimize our out-of-pocket spending. We lucked out and were able to visit the l'Orangerie for free!
Wonderful way to start the summer!

We Got to See The Goldfinch!

We went to the Netherlands for family day and stayed in The Hague. We were excited to find out that we were really close to the museum with The Goldfinch and other famous paintings (like 'The Girl with the Pearl Earring)


It looks totally different from this one!
