Another thing I failed in? We met Avi, after talking to him via Beer we finally got to meet up with him at Beer’s house. I didn’t take photos and forgot [...]

We met [...]

After a week back in Den Haag with Beer, Lindsay and I went to Nijmegen to stay with Dick and Marja, Tim and Nikki.

Elke is Geslaged.
July 13, 2009 – 3:42 am
The day before Elke found out if she had passed her exams, it was her Formal. Here they call it a Gala.
She and I had spent the day searching for black gloves to wear with her dress. We found some long ones, she chopped them up, sewed some cute bows onto them and they were [...]

Scheveningen

Scheveningen, the Gold Coast of the Netherlands. The first time we went there Lindsay and I walked there, it took us about 6 hours because we went via Madurodam…so it actually took us about an hour.
My first impression of Scheveningen was “this is a beach?”
actually it was the strand along the beach, but it was [...]

To make up for my blogging sins, I am going to write many blogs today…because wrongs are always righted with many writes…or something.

You can find it by the giant white tent with kites being flown over it:
Its a series [...]

On one [...]

Lindsay and I arrived in Den Haag, (or for you forgeiners The Hague). We were there to stay with my Dad’s oldest friend, Beer. He picked us up from the station and drove us to his amazing house in a beautiful part of Den Haag.
The next day he was going to Amsterdam for a meeting [...]
