Nice with Friends

  One thing I can say about breakfast at hotels in Europe is "lots of food".  You name it its there.  From bacon and eggs to croissants and fruit.  You can eat as little or as much as you like.  Lots of tea and coffee as well and fruit juices. We then all went back … Continue reading Nice with Friends
