To um Dr Bron Bronner’s Soap um because I know that’s like the most clear thing we’re going to use that for her body soap and laundry detergent so hopefully that avoids um that issue hopefully it’s not an allergy I know that a lot of people say like are saying
That that’s a thing now but it’s really actually kind of rare for it to be an allergy but if the laundry detergent and soap change does not help then I will start doing an Elimination Diet to take out Dairy and see if and eggs and stuff
Like that and see if she she has an allergy to anything um but yeah it’s healing nicely it’s definitely still looks pretty bad but we are making progress I think so yeah see you later I got all packed and we got it all packed into the car we’re ready to go all right

By themselves yeah yeah cuz they’re a little more crispy that here I think they’re like thinner instead they’re not as doughy they’re more like crispy yeah yeah so good but now now we need to go to the car yeah I don’t know what’s wrong with the elevator yeah I think we
Need to go that way there Fe the Stairs first strong muscles first we need to go to the car sometimes it’s so when you leave your ticket in the car yeah you needed your ticket to get down through the elevator yeah but you need also to pay the ticket yeah where’s the tickets I no IDE oh

Breakfast right good yeah and we go also to on the American um how we call the thing the from the World War II yeah grave or Cemetery yeah a cemetery is what it’s called yeah it’s super uh it’s that’s kind of weird to think you were saying we’re going to grave Cemetery but
It’s like an American military cemetery right yeah it is so nice to see how that uh how they did that yeah super clean yeah she a good night and sleep only woke up she woke up at 3: and 7: I’m okay with that the the two nights before
She slept straight through the night um but one or two wakeups is fine with me cuz she just eats and goes right back to sleep so she’s an easy baby my easy baby hey Jola she sleeping again oh okay okay now we go let’s go okay and

Shcks are the most comfortable they don’t get give me blisters on my ankles oh but you can’t go in in that shoes oh I can but you know you take those shoes on and off you do you help me remember and it’s like a real big fight to get
Him off okay I take the AL yeah oh it’s okay I’ll I’ll half put them on and oh like so bye bye so let’s go way you buy high heel I just dropped the camera huh I said I just dropped the camera I think that’s it’s okay good she looks She’s in
Red light therapy as it looks like this so babe we trying a new tradition yeah it’s also super weird what we did we order this and after that we have our uh omelet yeah it’s more dessert yeah but we wanted it first yeah but well it’s Christmas what yeah it’s Christmas
We can do what we want we’re on vacation yeah we ate we ate also I think later today we ate bues with BR Roost yeah probably and that’s okay yeah okay it’s made with rice yeah what is this called Ice that is a strange texture it’s like rice pudding it’s good but I wasn’t expecting that texture it’s like sticky almost I don’t know I never it’s nice huh yeah I like it my grandfather made these things all the time yeah so old yeah nice when you come to limber which
Is the state that mrict is in try this so yummy after the the rice pudding now tuna salad tuna salad and what’s next yeah we have arrived the Netherland American cemetery and Memorial but there is a one a guy he lived here yeah and there on the other
Side there’s also a house and he is from the US oh this is like the stories of the yeah battles did you said there I said of then you see there the attack from n that’s also what I said about the bridge you know when we go to n with your mom
Oh yeah and that’s there and then there you see the the planes and then they jump out of the plane with the uh with the parachutes and that’s what they do every year that they have so uh day yeah like it sounds so so stupid that when
You say from it look so nice here but you know also what what happened yeah of course but yeah that’s life but yeah and they make it beautiful so it’s a place that you can go and honor that that’s sacrifice their life that’s C this is not the best weather this is
Just not a super long video here yeah I’m surprised flag small flag normal flag I think a normal size okay okay can we go yeah let’s Go So it was a fast thought on that yeah so um I went to look and see the address for the venberg Christmas Market and realized you need tickets and the tickets are all sold out for today so we will not be going there unfortun so weird that you need tickets for a
Christmas Market yeah on the other side it’s in the c yeah it’s in a cave so we thought it was the perfect one to do today cuz you know it was supposed to be raining today yeah but normally you buy also tickets for the cave I think that’s
It but I I never thought about that yeah I didn’t think about it either um so if you want to go to the fenberg Christmas Market make sure you buy tickets um I’m sure maybe during the week it would have been easier but we it’s a Saturday two weeks before Christmas so
Makes sense that it was sold out um I’m happy that we are flexible now we got go yeah now we go to yeah what do you call it colon in English it’s like well there’s a g col I don’t know how you would pronounce it when we’re there I will ask them to
Pronounce it for me well in Germany yeah yeah but I think they said it completely different yeah well I want to know what the actual name of the city is yeah um but good good yeah I think so we’ll see uh but yeah it’s about an hour and 15minute
Drive we have entered Germany and now round is back to his race car driving days just casually 160 I’m driving I just think it’s bizarre there’s just no speed limit I know everywhere here’s no speed limit but you have also some uh uh places where you have to then you see 100
20 here yeah you have nothing the car says that it’s 100 but I think it’s lying to you or you don’t know okay I hope so I think that would be a big ticket so now it says there’s no speed limit that’s crazy you have that sign on you dash yeah yeah that’s
Crazy so shim shim shim are her legs good yeah so perfect now we have arrived are you happy to be here oh super happy yeah see in the face yeah how happy I am let me go yeah well there’s a cool Church he’s being sarcastic just so you guys
Know but there’s a whole lot of people are just kind of shuffling along like the cars when we came in to park huh Yeah uh can we do something or I really don’t like it is yeah I really don’t like it either we go yeah yeah yeah this it’s not fun there look at look look at this like yeah just like like little sardines walk through so that was a disappointment
Um I feel like that was it was just so crowded and yeah but it was also not no not nothing Street atmosphere yeah it was just like I don’t know it was just like a farmer market right exactly yeah there weren’t so many Christmas lights I mean maybe it’s different at Mark with
The Christmas tree in the middle right exactly yeah kind of how it felt um but what you also said with some when you go to some market then you need to have some skater ring and yeah music a little bit it’s I think Christmas Market is a
Little bit opisy yeah kind Christmas and the band Life Band and uh yeah they had the life band and some lights but I don’t know I don’t know I mean maybe we just spoiled from a strict where there’s like inside little bars you could go to and it wasn’t so
Overcrowded um now we’re headed to dorf to meet our friends but yeah that was just not so nice but we did get um I don’t I don’t remember what he told me the name was but he told me the name of the city um was col
Yeah it’s pretty simple not so hard I made it sound a lot harder cuz in the English translation there’s a g in it in the name col I don’t know why they decided to do that going out off to dorf and it’s what 50 minutes to get there I
Need to do the navigation yeah are we going to go to the hotel first or are we meeting them at the hotel yeah okay sounds good this is how the traffic is to get back over to the market it’s just a cute huge row stopped

Merry Christmas everyone! We hope you have a wonderful holiday season!!!
Join us on our vlog through Dutch and German Christmas markets. We explored 3 different Christmas markets in The Netherlands and Germany to see which is the best! We went to Maastricht, Valkenburg, Cologne, and Dusseldorf. We found the German Christmas markets way overcrowded and did not feel as “Christmassy” as the Dutch ones! We also did a quick stop at the Netherlands American Cemetery.

My granddaughter also had exema, and it turned out to be dairy and her formula, so when they started to give soja based it went away and stayed away, but now when she drinks normal milk it comes back again, but she can eat cheese etc, so it's only the milk
