4 days...



Our first 4 days were great! After a relatively quiet day on Monday, our busy schedule kicked in. Tuesday we visited Marijes grandmother, who was very happy to see us. She showed us her wedding album, which we had never seen before. She gave Marije one of the pictures, which I am sure she will use in her art sooner or later. Later that day we visited two of Sanders school friends.

On Wednesday we stayed at Sanders parents place. We stored some of our stuff in his granddads house before we left, and since he passed away a few months ago, we had to move it all again. It was great visiting the house one last time, and it gave us an opportunity to say goodbye. We also went to the cemetery to see where he was buried, together with his wife. It was sad, but good to close that chapter too.

Today we spent some more time with Marijes parents. We had real Dutch pancakes at a place where we also had our wedding banquet (pictures to follow). Good to be back there and enjoy the weather. Which is excellent by the way! Not quite the 30 degrees they forecast on the Central Coast, but hey, being in Holland without any rain is not bad...

Lots more visits to come, I promise we will show some more pictures next time.

Toedels,

Sander & Marije

Hallo Bregje, ik hoorde van collega Bert dat je een poosje in Nederland bent en zelfs nog bij MEdia langs zou komen, erg jammer dat ik je misloop. Ik ben nog een paat weekjes met zwangerschapsverlof. Leuk om jullie verhalen hier terug te lezen. Geniet van je tijd in Nederland en vooral ook in Australie.

Groet, Ellen (ellenbrouwer@hotmail.com)
