      Our flight was delayed for 6 hours, Molly and Kyle could not make their connecting flight through JFK and had to switch to our flight this morning. Airport checkin was a mess and VAT tax return took forever 🤣 We got on the plane, not exactly thrilled with the Delta experience!!! At least we are taking off 😊 Landed safely in Detroit I have never seen the immigration line so long in my life luckily they let the kids go through global entry with us. Happy to be Home!!! Created amazing memories!!!Lue lisää

      Florence to Frankfurt

      2. tammikuuta, Saksa ⋅ ⛅ 34 °F

      We woke up and packed up for the drive to Bologna. We are flying Lufthansa back to Frankfurt and the weight limit is 50 pounds, everyone was overweight and it required some creativity the purchasing of extra bags and lots of stress. 🤣 We landed in Frankfurt walked to the hotel and checked in. After a drink and snack in the vip lounge Klaus and Bryce went to get Bryce’s first ever Döner Kebab, he said it was amazing. Meanwhile the 4 of us had a quick bite at the hotel restaurant.
      Early night to bed, Kyle and Molly fly out in the AM and the rest of us fly at 2pm because of a delay.      Lue lisää

      San Gimignano

      1. tammikuuta, Italia ⋅ ☁️ 54 °F

      Klaus, Myself, Kyle and Molly drove to San Gimignano. We started at a beautiful vineyard called Tenuta Torciano for a wine tasting and tuscan lunch. The food and wines were delicious and luckily they offered shipping back to Michigan. We then drove to the Medieval town of San Gimignano the town and views were beautiful, everything I picture when I think about the Tuscany region. We explored and had a snack before making our way back to Florence. We grabbed the other two kids and walked to a wine window before making our way to our Pasta and Tiramisu cooking class. We drank prosecco and learned to make Tiramisu, ravioli, and tagliatelle. Once everything was prepared the restaurant cooked the pastas for us with sauce and we sat down with wine and tasted our creations. Back at the condo we started packing for our flight to Frankfurt tomorrow.Lue lisää

      Montepulciano

      31. joulukuuta 2024, Italia ⋅ ☀️ 46 °F

      We got ready, I went to grab coffees and Klaus grabbed the car, which was luckily still there this morning! We stopped at the high end designer outlets on our way the Montepulcino. There is definitely some big savings if you can find your sizes. Then we drove about an hour to Montepulciano. We did some wine tastings including a very beautiful underground experience at De Ricci. We explored the town a bit before making our way back to Florence. We went to New Year’s Eve dinner at a wonderful restaurant, listened to live music in the Santa Croce square and watched the fireworks at the river. Happy New Year!Lue lisää

      Bologna

      30. joulukuuta 2024, Italia ⋅ ☀️ 54 °F

      Today we headed to Bologna, it was about an 1.2 hour drive. We arrived and got lucky enough to find very tight street parking. We met our guide for the food tour and spent three hours, tasting local foods and learning some history of the town. We did a little shopping and had dinner at a local restaurant before jumping in an uber to the Bologna vs Verona soccer game. The game was so much fun!!! The fans definitely take this sport very serious, lots of yelling, chanting, and excitement! Then even let off some loud device that sounds like a cannon. The boys had the time of their life. We got back to Florence around 12:30am and fortunately found street parking because the parking lots close at midnight.Lue lisää

      Florence

      29. joulukuuta 2024, Italia ⋅ ☀️ 54 °F

      We all slept in! We are staying in the Santa Croce area, it is a little less busy than the main square, has some of the best restaurants, quaint streets and houses the largest Franciscan church in the world, associated with St. Francis of Assisi, Italy's patron saint since 1939. Kyle, Molly, Myself and Klaus walked around a bit, grabbed a bite to eat and a coffee. We did a little shopping before Bryce and Brooke met up with us. We went to an amazing food market with 3 levels and everything you could ever want to eat. Bryce and Brooke said it was some of the best pasta they had. We walked the packed streets filled with leather markets and stores. Next stop Santa Maria del Fiore, the Duomo, ranks as the world's third-largest cathedral. It took over 140 years to build and is still today the largest masonary dome. We climbed all 463 steps to the top with amazing views and then back down. We stopped for a quick aperol spritz and went to the famous I’ Girone De’ Ghiotti sandwich shop, it was very delicious but we all agreed we were more impressed with the sandwiches in Milan. Molly, myself and Brooke did a little shopping while the guys waited and had some beverages. We all took a little rest back at the apartment before dinner at II Vezzo. The dinner was great, the boys got the Florentine steak again and we had probably the best bolognese pasta ever. We went back to the market for gelato and walked back to the apartment, it was incredible how empty the streets that we could barely navigate earlier were. Off to bed early morning to Bologna tomorrow.Lue lisää

      Milan to Florence

      28. joulukuuta 2024, Italia ⋅ ☀️ 54 °F

      We woke up, loaded the van and made our way to Florence. Along the way we stopped at Opera 02 in Modena a beautiful Agriturismo for a Lambrusco and Balsamic tour and tasting. We had an amazing lunch after at their restaurant. Molly accidentally ordered beef tongue and most of us tried it. 😂 Mixed reviews because of the texture the flavors were great. Our pastas were incredible and the bottle of lambrusco was delicious. We then drove around 10 minutes to a parmesan farm. We made some purchases and made our way to Florence. Once we got to Florence we had to climb 4 flights of stairs with all of our suitcases to the apartment. Thank god we are here for 5 nights. Klaus had to find a parking garage that has openings, it is a crazy parking system, they keep your keys and have to pull it out by moving other cars all around 30 minutes before you’re ready to leave. Everyone got settled and we walked to dinner and had an amazing meal that included a huge steak that Kyle got. Back at the apartment. We had some wine chatted and had many many laughs!!Lue lisää

      Milan

      27. joulukuuta 2024, Italia ⋅ ☀️ 48 °F

      Everyone slept in today, Kyle and Molly had a leisurely day including a little exploring and having dinner at an amazing restaurant with the best cacio e pepe ever according to Kyle. Klaus, myself Brooke and Bryce went to a local sandwich shop and had some of the best sandwiches of our lives and a bottle of prosecco. Next we went to a pastry shop and the christmas market to try the two different cannolis of Italy one is made of cream and the other with ricotta(the sicilian way). We all loved the ricotta one best. Went in the Duomo which we learned is the largest church in Italy besides St. Peter’s Basilica in Rome. The architecture was stunning. We had an aperol in the city square which was so packed it was almost unbearable. Klaus and Bryce headed back to the hotel while Brooke and I did a little shopping. Back at the hotel we got cleaned up and took an Uber to the Navigli section of Milan it is considered the Venice of Milan with a canal running through the entire city. We had a cocktail at cute bar and great dinner before walking to the smallest bar in the world called Backdoor 43. (It only holds 4 people) We had such a fun time! They let you play your own music and made incredible cocktails for 1 hour. We had many laughs and DJ Bryce played all of his favorite EDM hits. We Ubered back to the hotel and called it a night.Lue lisää

      Final Day in Zermatt

      26. joulukuuta 2024, Sveitsi ⋅ ☀️ 37 °F

      We woke up to a hot tea in our rooms, after putting on our snow gear we paid the tab and made our decent to Riffelhaus for breakfast. After a quick bite to eat Bryce hit the slopes and we got on the train back to town. Once we got back to town we checked on our luggage which we left in the laundry room of our apartment building for the night and made our way to Cervo Mountain resort for wellness and massages. The spa was beautiful with so many amenities including a sauna, cold plunge pool, infinity hot tub, steam room and Yurts 🛖. The kids said it was one of the best massages of their lives. Bryce met up with us showered and returned his skis. (He truly loved Zermatt and had the time of his life skiing for 3 days) We walked back to the Apartment and picked up our luggage and walked to the train station. We took the train back to Tasch loaded the car up and made our way the Milan. Once we got to Milan we checked into the hotel, Kyle and Molly stayed in and had room service and the 4 of us went to dinner. We all had an early night to bed.Lue lisää

      Zermatt Day 3 Christmas

      25. joulukuuta 2024, Sveitsi ⋅ ☀️ 37 °F

      We woke up Christmas morning, had a mimosa and gave the kids their present. We surprised them with a wellness package including massage at the Cervo Mountain resort for the next day. We packed our back packs for the Igloo and checked out of the apartment. Kyle and Molly went to Mass, Bryce left to go skiing and the 3 of us finished getting everything ready for the igloo experience. We met back up with Kyle and Molly and took a train that shoots up the mountain from inside the mountain. We got to our stop and had to walk 15 minutes down the mountain to the Michelin Star restaurant Chez Vrony for Christmas brunch. Bryce skiied there and was already waiting when we arrived. It was a beautiful restaurant with amazing views and incredible food. After brunch we took a chair lift back to the train to town. We walked around town for a bit and hung out before having to get on the 4pm train to the Igloo experience. We arrived at the train stop and the guide met us for the trek to the Igloo village. There was some steep hills and Brooke wore moon boots which have no traction. Lots of laughs by all when she kept falling and finally slid on her butt for the ride down. Bryce skiied to the village and has been enjoying apres ski waiting for us to arrive. Words can not describe how amazing this place was. They rebuild it every year and it takes a handful of men around 2000 hours and 3 guys 300 hours for the carvings. We had a welcome drink and tour before eating a fondue dinner. After dinner we hung out in the Kota hut which was warm, went snow shoeing and enjoyed the sauna. Around 11:00pm we all went to sleep in the igloo rooms, it was cold at first but got better as you warmed up in the sleeping bag. Kyle was sick with a cold and miserable, 😞 Brooke was cold all night, and Bryce drank to many coffee drinks and ended up sleeping in the warming room. It was an experience we will never forget!!Lue lisää
