Jumping Across the Pond...


It’s a rare treat for kids to have the opportunity to see the history they study in school, up close and personal. And better yet when the whole family can make a “holiday” of it and fly across the pond (aka, the Atlantic Ocean) to take in the breathtaking views of a different country and culture.

Look for upcoming online exclusives on our website that guide you as a family, through three European cities, filled with so much culture to experience, it’s hard to want to sleep!

Our first stop is Dublin, Ireland (my most favorite city in the world) where there is a lot more to do than just hit the pubs (contrary to most people’s beliefs). The Irish have so much character and resilience, that it’s quite obvious throughout the city and in their current day economy. Be sure and take a walk down the River Liffey (pictured above) and down O’Connell Street where the Dublin Spire stands (although unliked by the locals) as a replacement for Nelson’s Pillar (blown up in 1966).

Next stop…London, UK!

Cheers!
Liz and Lauren
