La Panacée
While everyone is getting ready for their holiday we already had ours in France. It was lovely to stay at La Panacée in Rignac. The fact that we drove 2 hours to many (and had to drive 2 hours back) just to get there was sure worth it. We were welcomed with a delicious bottle of rose wine in the shades of the linden tree and forgot all about the long journey. The entire vacation was just about enjoying. La Panacée is a refurbished farm. Arjan en Lisette, who opened their Chambre d’ Hôte in the Lot, in 2009 after a long reconstruction, put a lot of effort to make every detail perfect. The rooms are luxurious, but kept their typical French atmosphere. The breakfasts are great, with fresh croissants, 
jus d’orange and local products. They asked us each morning if we would join them for dinner and believe me, you would love to. Because enjoying Lisette and Arjans’ kitchen once makes you realize there aren’t that many restaurants that good. The personal highlights are the couscous, delicious fresh soups, pineapple crumble, the stuffed artichokes and pasta. They have a one course dinner one day and a 4 course dinner the other. It’s great to do fun things during the day, knowing you don’t have to think about getting groceries or kooking. Just join them at the long table outside, enjoy the kids playing, the sunset, a great wine and good conversations with the other guests. If you’d like more privacy, you can also go out for dinner in one of the nearby villages. There is enough to do in the environment, the webpage of La Panacée is full of suggestions. Visit the vintage markets, buy your wine in the nearby wine houses in Cahors for example, hike in nature, visit the Murel waterfalls, walk around in cities like Domme and Cahor, explore the Dordogne by canoe or spend a day doing nothing at the pool at La Panacée. Just vacation how vacation should be. I can definitely recommend you this great place to stay!
Holiday in Sealand
 How nice is it then to enjoy a holiday in The Netherlands? There is so much to explore! Now the oyster and mussel season had come. There is a beautiful hotel called Hotel Wemeldinge. This hotel has a special offer to enjoy everything this island has like biking, enjoying the National Park, diving. You can eat nice seefood right out of the sea! And sleep in a very comfortable room.
Bed & Breakfast Achter de Kan
Past week me and my better half went away for a day and night together. One of our family members had been ill from Sinterklaas, either our kids or we and that took it’s toll. Besides, we both have a busy job, so it’s nice to spend some time together and do fun stuff every once in a while. And thanks grandma, for looking after our kids for two entire days. I was worried about it at first, because our Yuren is still very little and I am still breastfeeding him, and I didn’t know if it would work out. But everything went fine. He finished the bottles I made for him, I expressed every 4 hours and we all where happy. Also grandma who loved looking after her grandchildren!  We went to Den Bosch. We didn’t think about Carnival, that changed Den Bosch into Oeteldonk, but that didn’t spoil it for us. We went shopping, had lunch at the hip Pinklemon (also great for kids and they have a cool webpage!) and we ate at Zoetelief. But the best tip I can give you is Bed & Breakfast Achter de Kan. Someone tipped me on Twitter. Really hip, located it the city centre, they have nice rooms, fine beds and a great service. So, if you are heading for Den Bosch to go shopping, I can recommend this place to stay (including free WIFI) without a doubt!
