Hi Farmgirl Friends!! It is great to be home and I have missed being at our HenHouse on a regular basis. My WiFi situation on the trip was hit or miss and so sometimes I could read and leave a comment and others not. The trip was fantastic and we enjoyed seeing so many beautiful and historic places between Amsterdam and Prague. It was amazing to walk in castles from as early as the 9th Century and gaze inside cathedrals that were full of art and gold. The story of this part of Europe is filled with countless stories of war and fighting for someone else's land. But there are also stories of good Kings and Queens who did good things for their people as well.
The one aspect of travel that I enjoy is that it gives me a chance to realize that our world today is also very similar from country to country. Every city is a blend of the old and the local grocery stores and other modern stores like home depots etc. Plus, many people now speak English because it is part of the high school language requirement. That really helps getting around!!
I have been trying to read up on what has been happening and I see lots of interesting projects, gardens, and stories of trips and family gatherings. Lots has been happening here and it is good to know everyone is humming along! The next few days, I hope to get caught up on life, bills, laundry and the like. It is wonderful to be back home and get back to my MaryJane's Farm family!! I will try and post a few photos as well when I get a chance too.

Deborah, yes we went on a river cruise all the way down through the Netherlands into Germany and ending in Vienna, Austria. From Vienna, we took a bus through Slovakia into Prague. It was a fantastic trip down the Rhine River with all of the castles and small towns. Absolutely beautiful and so interesting. Your son's marriage in an old castle sounds very romantic!
