Spend Time in the Royal Alcazar and Gardens Simply put, the […]

Paris and Amsterdam are the two big European flight hubs and my cousin is studying abroad in Amsterdam, so we had a fabulous few days exploring the city with my family (just missing my younger brother and his girlfriend who are finishing up exams but will arrive today)!   I’m so glad to have […]
