Campanile - Breda

Ann took Jimmy and I for a good 1.5 hour walk around her neighbourhood. It's absolutely beautiful!! I almost didn’t feel like I was in the country to be honest.

All the homes in her neighbourhood are custom built and a lot of them are very modern looking. This also applies to the landscaping around these homes as well.

Ann’s house is also quite modest and since the last time I was here, she’s done a few upgrades, including ...

De laatste week vliegt voorbij. In tegenstelling tot de eerste paar weken, toen leek voor alles genoeg tijd te zijn. Maar sinds ons afscheidsfeestje gaat alles een stuk sneller. Er is geen tijd meer voor uitstellen en we zijn nu druk bezig de laatste punten van ons lijstje af te tikken.

Gisteren hebben we afscheid moeten nemen van onze poezen. Gelukkig hadden we dit ...

Après 2 semaines passées tout seul, voilà enfin de la visite : chouette !!

Le lundi soir, arrivée de mes parents et Yaya: petite visite rapide du centre-ville
bah oui, rapide, en 10min c'est fait avec petit MacDo pour pas trop dépayser.
Présentation du parc et des lapins sauvages :)

Le lendemain, mes parents sont repartis visiter les côtes hollandaises et le chnord, et Yaya est restée, chouette :)

... br>Et oui, ici, la ville est le territoire de milliers de Choucas des Tours!
Allez voir sur ce lien, et vous constaterez vous même le bruit qu'ils font quand ils chantent, c'est pas mélodieux du tout. C'est plutôt rauque et cacophonique.
Enfin, chacun son point de vue, peut être vous aimez le chant du choucas!

Un petit billet sur l'appartement où je vais loger pendant les semaines à venir.

Car j'aurais jamais cru ça, il est bien grand, un bon gros F2 et tout meublé. Donc déjà situé dans une belle résidence (à la sortie d'ascenseur de mon étage, il y a des fleurs avec un gros fauteuil en cuir) face au casino et dans un coin tout beau ...

... hour's drive and after we had coffee and said Good morning to Karin, we were on our way to Etten-Leur to Ilse's. We all had breakfast together and then I went shopping with Ilse for groceries in Albert Heijn. I was so tired that Itook a nap in the afternoon and in th evening Mama, Leo and Karin came over and we all had dinner together in Ilse's back yard., take-out Chinese Food. Lekker!

... 00-5 :00, pour se rendormir et se réveiller vers midi ou 13 :00! Nous ne pouvons plus continuer comme ça... La température est plutôt maussade ici : environ 15 degrés, gris et de la pluie! Au moins c'est intermittent, mais des fois il tombe tellement de pluie, il pleut à boire debout!!! Nous avons décidé de se lever, prendre un déjeuner-diner tard (!) et marcher 20-25 minutes au centre-ville d'Oosterhout. Tellement le ...

... the flight he awoke from his slumber and then stretched out without any cares, practically assaulting me in the process. His final trick was to try and use the toilet as we were approaching the runway to land. I'm sure he had a great time in Holland.... It wasn't long before I'd managed to get myself to my friends' house. Absolutely brilliant to see them again. They'd also invited another couple of friends ...

... museums and tourist sites closed at 5pm and would not admit anyone into the buildings after 4:00pm! We still had fun walking around the city, and the shops actually stayed open till 9pm so we were able to buy a few things. Then we ate at great restaurant called "The Black Sheep" and then headed back home! Friday, we travelled to Utrecht and visited the Music Box Museum. Street organs are really popular throughout Holland and we learned how they are ...

... a prosecutor at the Hauge. We were told that we arrived on a day where no trials or hearings were supposed to be held, but one trail was actually taking place on the day of out visit because the witness that they had on the stand was taking more time then they thought he would. Thus, once again we went through another set of metal detectors and were lead up stairs to the trail area. Once we reached the second floor we were greeted by another UN attendant who handed us a translation ...
