Contrary to Andrew's concerns before tending to the bare bodies of his wives, the children enjoyed their outing like never before. In this world, few have the chance to experience different landscapes.
The countries on the continent, even those side by side, are very different. Their landscapes, inhabitants, culture, and even their economies and politics vary, giving a unique flavor to each experience.
Most people, not just children, never leave the cities or towns where they were born, so the privilege Andrew's children have to see different parts of the world is unusual. The children played and enjoyed everything new that the duchy's city had to offer and, fortunately, faced no mishaps. This doesn't mean they were left unwatched.
