The Goal is...

"The goal is

to die

with memories

not dreams."

Amsterdam, Netherlands

Our trip in Belgium was definitely amazing.

While we were there we decided to also go to Amsterdam for a day. 

It was such a good idea!

Amsterdam was about few hours train ride from Brussels.

( Brussels, Belgium)

It was an easy train ride!

We got to Amsterdam early.

It was a bit chilly!

This made me so happy!

Right by train station you will be welcomed with the beautiful Amsterdam.

Ahhh... So amazing!

It may be cold

But, it was such a beautiful Sunny day!!!

Pinch me if I'm dreaming.

I had to take a few seconds to just look around. 

Its so beautiful!

Another busy city. 

But it was not that bad!

We stopped by for lunch before we start exploring.

Then after that we did the Boat cruise!

I highly recommend this when going to Amsterdam!

The best and the easiest way to explore Amsterdam!

My future photographer.

It was a bit scary how these boats go in a smallest bridges and tunnels.

But, I'm pretty sure they are used to it.

While you are on a tour they explain and tell you all the interesting things too.

Its nice because I got to pick where I want to come back to take some nice pictures.

The floating Chinese Restaurant.

The tiniest, narrowest house you will ever see!

After the tour, we head to the Market.

We didn't plan on going to a tulip fields this trip but, I'm glad to see all these

Beautiful flowers!

Breathtaking!

I can definitely say that Spring is the best time to go to Amsterdam

If you want to see the Tulip Festival. 

I want to come back already!!

So gorgeous!

After that we explore some more.

The Royal Palace of Amsterdam.

Beside it is the Madame Tussaud

The line was super long so we didn't go inside.

So we just walked and explore some more.

It rained a little bit, good thing it was only for a little bit.

So grateful to be here!

ahhhh...

After a long walk we decided to stop and have snack and beer.

We didn't have time anymore for a big dinner since we need to catch a train.

So quick snack!!

It was good.

A little bit of exploring on our way to train station!

And souvenir shopping!

Of course we had to get some! :)

2 hours of train ride snack!

Such an amazing trip.

Amsterdam was beautiful!!!!

So grateful for this amazing Birthday trip.

Brussels, Belgium

This year's Birthday trip is...

to Belgium!!!

Definitely one of the best Trips we ever did.

I'm really grateful we can travel while living here in Europe.

I still can't believe it.

Our flight was short and very easy.

The boys did really good.

We had a layover in Frankfurt.

 

When we got to Belgium we went straight to our Airbnb so we can leave our luggage.

Out of all the Airbnb experience though..

This one is not the best. 

I really wish it turned out perfect but it didn't 

But, that's traveling it doesn't go perfect all the time.

I had to accept that myself.

But, the apartment was good.

The location was good.

Let's be positive and enjoy.

Cheers!

After relaxing a little bit.

We went out and look for place to eat.

I heard how good is Asian foods here so that's what I wanted for our first night.

Its hard to find a good Asian restaurant in Italy so we have to take advantage of it.

We had Vietnamese food and it was really good!

After eating we started exploring a little bit.

It was a little bit chilly but it was okay.

The Royal Palace of Belgium.

I wish we got to go inside, but it was closed when we got there.

Still beautiful even just being outside.

Then we kept walking to the center.

Its not quite the center since I'm reserving that destination for next day. :)

We stopped by at this Garden.

Such a beautiful view.

You can't miss this if you are going to Brussels.

It was breathtaking.

After walking for a few  hours

we started walking back so we can get some relaxing and good sleep for our adventure

the next day.

We decided to have take out Pizza Hut.

Theres no Pizza Hut in Italy!

I was excited to finally have it again.

So good! Like always. :)

The next day we head to our next adventure

(               )

Later that day we went back so we can enjoy Brussels for another day.

What a fun experience!!!

The next day...

Our last day in Brussels we explore more that our first day.

It was definitely cold. 

But, I'm so glad it wasn't raining.

(It could be worse right?)

We stopped by to get some Belgian chocolates!

I mean, no way I wouldn't get some!

We went to the city centre.

Everything is close together which was nice.

Brussels city center is one of the most beautiful center I've ever been.

The building's are amazing.

After that, It was time for some Belgian waffles!

Later that afternoon we head to the Airport.

Some beer while waiting!

All this good eating made me crave some Salad!

Balance right?

:)

Our flight was good.

Relaxing.

Got to have a wine in flight!

I enjoyed our Paris trip last year, Still one of the best. 

But, This year was amazing too. 

I'm grateful for having such an amazing husband that makes sure I have the best Birthday every year.

Put Brussels in your Europe Bucket list!!

I highly recommend!!!!
