Exploring the Municipal Unit of Thestieis: A Family Journey

We’re back on the mainland! Mirre and Jinte kick off the day with a fun shopping trip in Patras—Jinte’s shirts are getting too small. In the evening, we find a peaceful beach spot to park for the night, soaking in the serene coastal atmosphere.

Scenic Drive to the Lake

The following day, we head towards a breathtaking lake. The drive is nothing short of stunning. Along the way, we search for the perfect spot to stay and discover a lovely taverna with a playground right next door—instant joy for the girls!

Fun, Creativity & Family Excitement

Our day is filled with a mix of work, creativity, and play. Jinte invents fruit-themed games, they sing songs dedicated to the king, and most importantly, they start counting down the hours. Why? Because tomorrow is the day Grandma Jeandrine and Grandpa Jan arrive!

Preparing for Family Time

We’re already heading to the house where we’ll spend the upcoming week together as a family—such excitement in the air! Before arriving, we stop for a big grocery haul. Every item the girls want to buy comes with the same argument: “But grandpa and grandma like this too!” They make quite the case!

A Heartfelt Countdown to Tomorrow

Just one more sleep until the big family reunion. The girls can hardly wait. We look forward to laughter, memories, and adventures in the beautiful Municipal Unit of Thestieis.

See you tomorrow, Grandpa and Grandma!
