2009 Vacation - Part 4 - Frankfurt

On Friday, 24 July, we all got in our 9 passenger rented Ford to head on down to Italy. We decided to spend a night in Frankfurt and visit with my aunt and uncle, Ima Jean and Harold Oaks, who are serving a mission there. Ima Jean and Harold were absolutely great hosts. We saw the Frankfurt Temple, Braunfels Castle, Bad Homburg Castle, their mission office, the Area Presidency office, The Dome Church, some Roman ruins uncovered next to the Dome, and the Romer Plaza.

2009 Vacation - Part 3 - Belgium

We drove to Belgium to go to the Air Force Base to do a little shopping. Since my dad is retired military, he has access to all bases. I called before we left and they said it would not be a problem that we all go in as guests with my dads military ID. When we got there, they would not let us in. My dad could go in, but no one else. Either way, it was a nice drive and we were back in time to visit the small base here in Rotterdam. We would have gone there first but the store is very small with limited items.

2009 Vacation - Part 2 - Amsterdam

Here is Part 2. My parents and myself spent a day in Amsterdam. We visited the Anne Frank House, the Rijksmuseum and took a canal cruise.

2009 Vacation - Part 1 - Rotterdam

For those interested, here is a slideshow of our vacation this last summer. This slideshow includes pictures from activities we did around Rotterdam and home when my parents came to visit at the end of July. I will post individual pictures later.
