Amsterwham Christmas

This year we spent Christmas in an unusual way: Aaron's parent came to London on Sunday and then we met Jake and Katie in Amsterdam on Christmas Eve. We've always been home for Christmas but after only being in Europe for 2 months we felt it was too soon to make a trip back for the holidays.

We rented a flat here so it feels a bit more like home : ) and it is nice to be with some of our family.

On Christmas Day we visited the Anne Frank museum, the Van Gogh museum and then went out to dinner. The Anne Frank museum is by far one of my favorite things that I've ever done in Europe. It was really touching and eye opening, and I would highly recommend it. I also have more of an appreciation for Van Gogh having seen the museum's collection. 

We ended our Christmas with dinner at a nice restaurant and drinks at the 3 Sisters Pub. (Chels and Lacey- it was just too perfect, we had to go in). An unusual Christmas but a really great one : )

The Newlyweds Abroad wish you all a wonderful Christmas too from Whamsterdam*!

*thanks to Aaron's cousin, Erin**, for the clever name!

**no thanks to John for the confusion of two Aaron/Erin's in the family : )
