Our first adventure with my family was a Rhine River Cruise. We had never been on one and it was something we had on our to do list. It was a beautiful Saturday....perfect for being out on a boat. Since we had our 3 kids plus my sister's 2 kids (6 and under) we opted for the short version of the boat ride. The scenery was amazing, although I'm sure we missed most of it because we did have 5 kids with us. Our plan was to take the boat all the way to the last stop, hop off and tour a castle, then get back on and head on back. Well I was either taking someone to the bathroom, or keeping someone off the table, or keeping Avery from throwing something into the river because we missed our stop and the boat was on it's return before I noticed.
Lucking there were a few stops on the return trip so we were still able to get off and see a castle.
This is Kayla posing with a castle in the background. Don't you love her hair. It's too fine and short to braid, but she insisted.
Caden posing in front of a castle. Maybe the same one as Kayla...who was keeping track. Notice his nice sweatshirt that is 2-3 sizes too small. In the rush out the door that's all he could find.
This is the view of the river from the top of the castle.
Here is a cool room inside the castle. It was filled with weapons and animal heads.
Me and the kids at the top of the castle.
The highlight of the day was having my mom climb up to the castle. It was a VERY steep and long climb up. She did great and then she wanted to die. We were all very proud of her and I hope she recovers some day.
