In Sifnos, the town up on the top of the hill is called Castro.  We’ve gone a couple times to eat but mostly just headed right to Stratos and settled in for the night. Who can blame us with a view like this. But we headed up there early one night and no restaurants wereContinue reading “Top of the Castle”

This is why I love Greece, you can have dinner with a view like this.  The fifth night in Serifos we headed up to Alona Restaurant.  It’s located halfway between the Port town, Livadi and the town on the top of the mountain- Castrro.  The views were amazing and we got to eat yummy paidakiaContinue reading “Dinner with a view”

What, you don’t eats fish with your crepes? We don’t either. But on our fourth day in Serifos we decided to head down to the port first thing and get some fish for dinner.  We usually eat dinner out but since we were making dinner at home and we were already in town, we decidedContinue reading “Fish and Crepes”

After two days in Greece we were feeling like pros. So for our third day we wised up.  We drove to the beach, yes I know it’s only thirty feet away but with two kids and their gear I would rather save that energy for the beach.  We also decided to just hang out underContinue reading “In search of the perfect beach”

‘Ημέρα πατέρων’ is Fathers Day here in Greece and since we celebrated it here in Greece that’s what we’ll call it.  The Day of the Father. And what a wonderful Father Randy is.  When I’m at the end of my rope and Adam is driving me bananas as only a two and a half yearContinue reading “Ημέρα πατέρων”

We’ve been in Serifos for a whole week already and I’ve been meaning to post pictures and our activities daily…but having two kids seems to take up the whole entire day in a great way of course.  I’m used to having some down time when they’re both napping but here I don’t have my amazingContinue reading “Beach lessons”

8 pm Manila time- Bags packed and ready to go. All of us got a couple hours of sleep in before our loooong journey. There being 4 of us this is the least amount of luggage we could manage.  One double stroller, one backpack to carry Adam, one baby bed for Malcolm, two carry onesContinue reading “24 Hours to Greece”

Lots and lots to tell you all about our trip to Greece so far but first two weeks ago this little peanut turned five months!  There are a million things I love about Malcolm, like his little sweet milk breath or the way he almost seems to be hugging me when I’m carrying him orContinue reading “5 months”

6 hours north of Manila is Baguio, a town up in the mountains.  There is the ambassadors residence up in the mountains that’s been around for over 50 years.  I’ve been hearing about this place for a year now and I’ve putting off going for year now.  It’s a six hour drive and the driveContinue reading “Baguio”

What, these two don’t go together in your mind? First, mothers day. We had a wonderful day.  We headed to our favorite breakfast place, Wildflour for a yummy breakfast.  Then home for some cuddling time and present opening.  Adam kindly helped me open a beautiful Thai scarf and some great face cream.  Even the boysContinue reading “Mothers Day and Potty training”
