Visiting the only Dutch city with an English name,

      As far as I know is 's-Gravenhage or Den Haag the only Dutch city with an english name.
It's The Hague.
After a trip with the train, better for the environment, although we have a hybride car, we saw The Hague in the sun.
We vist the photo museum to see the photos of Michael Wolf. An interesting exposition where you could see the change in style through the years.
But The Hague, or Den Haag also known as 's-Gravenhage has a lot more to offer. Het Binnenhof where our government settles, het Malieveld where people come together when there is an action of the union, the beautiful station, all of that we hadn't enough time, so we will go back . . . .
But there was time to take some photo's . . . . .

The Carnaval is over

Image
The carnival is over. . . And because we like it and are still in the Low Country, we celebrate it, so on to Maastricht. And how busy it was, much busier than expected because the weather was not good.  But Carnival in the rain remains, maybe a little wetter than planned Carnival. Stay healthy and optimistic, even when the Carnaval is over . . .

After the renovation

Image
  yes, we did our best, but now they are on the roof, our solar panels.  The bathroom has also been renovated in between, so it was time to get out for a while.  Not too far, just a walk in nature and then also shoot a heron. Not really, of course, so no gun was involved, but with a camera.  Oh yes, and we will also go to a sunny country this year when it winters here, but more about that later. Stay healthy and optimistic, you will feel a lot better doing so . . .

Gifts, gifts.

Image
  Apparently we are now in a period where we give a lot of presents. The period in which we received a lot of presents seems to be behind us.  Not that it's a bad thing, rather the opposite. So it turns out to be true, for us at least, that giving is better than taking.  The presents are for the little ones, the children. Wonderful to see how happy they can be, how intensely they enjoy unpacking and the surprise when the gift is unwrapped in front of them. The absolute highlight appears to be the permission to bring a present when it is time to go to sleep. Stay healthy and optimistic, the world can't do without it!
