From Tracy Darrow, " We lived in Munich from 2006 - 2008 with our two children, and your website was my 'go to' for all our travel planning. You have great suggestions about kid friendly sights and I love how you mention family friendly parks and open spaces. My most favorite feature of your site are the book recommendations – we would always try to get a few before visiting a location." |
