The car was pretty crammed with everything we'd need for a week.
Liechtenstein is a little - and by little, I mean tiny - country by Switzerland. The reason you don't see Jessica and Luke in this picture is because they were asleep in the car. They slept through the whole half hour it took for us to drive through Liechtenstein.
From the highway, we could see this castle on the hill. Brad was here as a missionary, so he knew that this is the official castle where the royal family of Liechtenstein still lives.
We took a 20 minute detour to drive up next to the castle. I kept thinking it was so weird that Liechtenstein is still its own country. It is so very small, and I can't imagine that it makes much difference whether it is Liechtenstein or Switzerland. Liechtensteinians must be very stubborn people.
After staying Saturday night in a little hotel in Savona (with the smallest parking garage you've ever seen - I am still impressed that Brad was able to wedge our car out of there) we boarded the Costa Serena on Sunday afternoon.
We had two cabins, and the kids quickly determined that the window sills were the coolest places to be. Throughout the week, we'd often find one of the kids sitting in the sill behind the curtains, watching the water go by. Pepper especially liked sitting there wrapped up in his blanket.
Anyone who's been on a cruise before knows that food is a major part of the fun. Here we are at dinner Sunday night, getting ready to eat our seven course meal. Well, except for Adam and Luke. They both had hot dogs (??).
