My brother came to visit!

Dan got to see all that Brussels had to offer:

plus some historical buildings, peeing boy statues, parks and churches.
The Belgian weather showed off its ability to be absolutely horrible for days at a time, but we didn't let that get us down! He even got to come to school for a bit to meet my fabulous first graders** and see how much fun I have on recess duty.

We also trained it to Paris for a 12-hour whirlwind tour! We rode the tour bus around and saw the major sites - Louvre, Eiffel Tower, Arc d-Triomphe, etc. We went to see St. Sulpice, which is a fabulous church, and ended the day up on MontMarte. Here's Dan with the view from the Eiffel:


The visit was over way to soon, but it was really fun to spend some quality time with my "little" brother and show him around the place I've been calling home!

**Last week the 1st graders put on plays, which were completely amazing and adorable. It made me start to miss them already!

Is your school year over then, I take it?
And when do you head to Dubai? I'm curious as to how all this traveling works out... and in case I haven't mentioned it recently, man am I jealous too.

Someday...

Thanks for the fantastic time! It really was amazing. I will have to get a few of the small number of pictures that I took on my labtop. Can't wait to see you when you get home!

P.S. Tell Katie the America Jacket is a big hit and that I appreciate it!
