In December my parents came to visit for a couple weeks!
Since Brev and I have spent most holidays alone for the past couple years, we were so excited to have family visiting for Christmas and New Year. Especially since Brev had a holiday break from basketball and was able to travel with us.
While they were here, we got around! In one week, we even averaged walking more than 45 miles (that’s over 6 miles a day).
In Belgium we spent time in Kortrijk, Chaleroi, Ghent, Brugge, Tournai, and Leuven. We went to dinner in Lille, France and took a Christmas trip to Madrid, Spain and Lisbon and Porto, Portugal.
One of our favorite memories was arriving in Spain at 11 pm on Christmas Eve and eating our Christmas Eve meal at one of the few places that were open, Bar Restautante El Aguila, a small Chinese restaurant that served traditional Spanish food from 7 am – 12 am.
It felt like a scene out of the Christmas Story movie, where the family ate at Chop Suey Palace. LOL.
