Our "hometown"- Schiedam, Netherlands

After spending most of our time sightseeing in other cities, I finally decided to venture out and explore the town we were staying in- Schiedam. Schiedam is another old city that is now a suburb of Rotterdam. It is riddled with canals and was spared in WWII, so many historic structures are intact. Our first adventure, though, was to a park close to our hotel. I hate to admit that it took us several weeks to make it there, but those first few weeks were so cold that we did not want to be outside for too long! Pirate boat! This park was awesome! It had biking and walking paths coursing through it, lakes and canals, and the play structures were imaginative and engaging for all ages. Landon's favorite thing in the whole park were the sand diggers. Unfortunately, he could not operate the digger independently so that was fun for mommy to help him dig dirt for most of our time at the park.  Daffodil median McDonald's in Vlaardingen Other awesome parts of Schieda...
