Your jet-lagged two-year old might not handle this very well. I don't know your two-year old but the two-year olds that I do know would be altogether more amenable to a slower pace - so perhaps you could keep the same list of places to visit but stretch things out..
our son is a pretty seasoned traveler. Went all around Belgium/Netherlands 7 months ago and loved trains. But I agree, terrible 2 might be tough. How do you recommend stretching it out?
