Europe - Giverny France and Monet's Garden

On Sunday, we left safe confines of the Robinson abode to strike out on our own. We were headed from Brussels to Normandy, France. But first, a stop at Claude Monet's home in Giverny, France.

Monet's home has two beautiful gardens, much of which is recognizable from his paintings. While it is a little out of the way, the trip was worth it.

The kids had a nice time running around, stretching their legs and even looking at the paintings. Looking at the gardens, it is easy to see where Monet receive his inspiration for classics such the water lillies paintings.
