New header graphic
Wednesday, June 7th, 2006Taken in Friesland last weekend, a new header graphic with a typical view of the dutch countryside.
Back from Friesland
Tuesday, June 6th, 2006Am back from a great and relaxing weekend with friends in the always friendly village of Lippenhuizen (indeed, where on the F…ing map can that be found? ;-))
We made no plans upfront and found ourselves enjoying the quiet atmosphere of an old farmhouse surrounded by typical dutch nature views. Had 'some' drinks, marvelous food, played outdoor games (the game of boules was the weekends favourite), listened to great music and had good and interesting discussions. What else can one wish for? 🙂

Friesland!
Friday, June 2nd, 2006Guess what? Sun is shining…amazing!!! I'm outta here, off to Friesland! Catchya all on the other side of the weekend!
Summer??!!??
Thursday, June 1st, 2006Meteorologicaly (what a great scrabble-word btw.!) summer started today, 1st of June. Not yet though…frrrreezing cold, around 11 degrees.
Weather actually has been shitty for the past two weeks orso…hope things will be better the coming days as I'm spending the weekend with friends in Friesland (the northest province of The Netherlands).
The region is famous for its lakes, so if weather does what it's supposed to do from 1st of June and Sunday does what the name implies, it would be a perfect day to rent a small sailingboat and drink some beers on the lake…uhhh, sail! 🙂
European championship
Thursday, June 1st, 2006Am not the biggest soccer fan, but like to watch a game every now and then.
Tonight I saw the dutch team making it to the finals of the European Championship under 21 in Portugal. They beat France in the semi-finals 3-2…way to go guys, hope the 'older' players have the same result in the World Championship starting in Germany next week!
