Drielandenpunt, Sunday is walking day!

The last week has been really quiet. That is except for Andrew being sick on Friday night. He seems to be feeling much better now. Poor little man.

Today we all went for a lovely walk in Drielandenpunt (three land point). It is the point where Belgium, Netherlands and Germany all meet. It is a wooded area with lots of walks and there is a Lybrinth that you get lost in! Today we just went wandeling (walking to us english speaking lot) around the trees.











Andrew was very excited about walking but was not so happy about getting his new walking boots dirty! As always the first thing the boys do is find big sticks to walk with so off they went in pursuit for the straightest branches they could find. With that accomplished we all set off enjoying the lovely scenary. Papa got bored following the set path so we diverted off up a hill through the trees with much moaning from Andrew that his legs and feet were sore.

About 20 mins later we all reached the starting point and Andrew went to play in the park while Papa bought us all some lekker frietjes (yummy chips). Charlie loved them. He then went to play with Andrew in the park and got really annoyed when he couldn't walk up the slide on the part you are supposed to slide down, silly billy!

Andrew - were your boots very dirty when you got back home? Charlie, you are a nut case, you are supposed to climb up the steps and slide down the slippy bit - I think perhaps your big brother is going to have to show you!!

Hey Robert.
Just looked at the pictures in large image size, you look like a God-Damn mountain man! Did you catch any bears?
