Dear Jackson,
Your Great Aunt and Uncle and 2nd cousins were here still in the Netherlands visiting. Yesterday we took them to Thorn, the white washed town in the southern part of Limburg. You and I played outside in the courtyard of the nunery while Mom and everyone went through the church. Then we went across the street to the Pannekoekenbaker and had ice cream. You loved it! You had a cone in a bowl and got ice cream everywhere.

Today we went with them to Brussels, Belgium. It was our first time there and we really had fun. It is an amazing town with lots of history and lots of old building and statues and monuments. We took lots of pictures. Your favorite part was the park by the Royal Palace. You played on the swing and teeter toter. After walking back to the centrum of town we said good-bye to Bob, Jan, Nathan, and Emily. They were going to visit Normandy, Paris, and Neuschwanstien Castle. Then they'll come back next weekend. You really liked Nathan, you even let him pick you up and hold you. I think your Great Aunt Jan was jealous.

It will be nice to back to a routine again this week but we are getting prepared for Rome next week!
Love,
Dad
