Thanksgiving Day
It was so nice to be able spend Thanksgiving together with some of our closest friends here in Germany. All together in the Dubel house we had 15 people, 3 dogs, 3 turkeys (2 deep fried and 1 smoked) and all the fixings! It was quite a crowd and we had a blast! We are so thankful for many things this year, our friends out here (who are really more like family) are one of them!
Here a two pictures with everyone (minus the pups) that were at our house for Thanksgiving!
Thanksgiving Weekend In Amsterdam
That weekend, we took a short trip up to Amsterdam with two great friends! It was nice to just hop in the car and get away for a few days and see something new. So far, Amsterdam has had the friendliest people, and the most bicycles! That's right, BICYCLES! There are cyclist everywhere, and more bikes than any of us had ever seen COMBINED!
Here is us walking around Amsterdam, it was pretty cold!
While we were there, we visited the Anne Frank house, which was somber experience, but one we were all glad to partake in. It really is incredible to see the house that they lived in and see how they lived. Then we were off to something a little more fun, the Heineken Experience! There we took a very intuitive tour of the brewery, saw the history of Heineken, learned the brewing process from start to finish, and a crash course in how to properly drink their beer. After it was all said and done, we received our 2 "free" beers and then were on our merry way.
Here is the two of us at the Heineken Experience.
Overall, we thoroughly enjoyed our trip to Amsterdam; however, we all came to the conclusion that it was not a place we would go back to, it's not really our type of scene.
Next stop? Rome, Italy!
