Next vacation

By
Yesterday, Jack stated that he knew where we should go on our next vacation: Germany. He's been enthralled with Germany (mainly the German flag) since the World Cup (when he was actually devastated that Germany beat Argentina, but who's counting...)

Justin and I mentioned the few places we've been: Dusseldorf, Heidelberg, and Frankfurt.

Jack then said that he knows another Frankfurt. We're stumped so we asked where and he said Kentucky. That Frankfort is the capital of Kentucky.

Now, I'm good with trivia but I've always been terrible at state capitals. This one blew me away.
We quizzed him a bit and discovered that he doesn't know all of them but to know even a few at the beginning of Kindergarten seems like a pretty good start.

Now to start planning that trip to Germany...

We picked one: Dutch Wonderland family amusement park. My cynical self really doubted that we'd enjoy this experience. I was worried that it would be cheesy. But I was wrong. Well yes, it was kind of cheesy because it was a family amusement park. But it was so fun. The place was very geared to families with young children. The rides are categorized by height so it's easy to know what rides your kids can ride. Jack tried several rides: big trucks, bulldozers, leaping frogs, the monorail. He even drove a car! He had a really good time. Spence was a good sport as there wasn't much for him to do. Maybe next year. Justin felt right ...
