Tempus Tommy

A Dane living in The Netherlands

So, the "avond vier daagse" is over. Four evenings where you walk a route of 5, 10 or 15 km. The first and last night they passed us - first night was rather harmless...but the last night!!! Man, with bands and samba dancers and... *moan* ...I took some pictures and suddenly realises how much I want a Canon Ixus 500 camera. Maybe I should wish for financial contributions for my up-coming birthday?

Tomorrow it's STRAATFESTIVAL again. The inner part of Leeuwarden is turned into a big weaved carpet of theater/music acts. I bet it's going to be quite something - just like last year. And I will bring my camera!

We got the ticket for Denmark from SAS now. We'll be leaving from Schiphol 21st June. Around €350 for the both of us. That's the same as if we took the train! The airplane prices certaintly dropped the last few years! I'm looking forward to be able to use only a few hours of transport instead of the usual 13 hours (by train). Germany might have a beautiful countryside, but when you pass it for the 12th time, it suddenly seem less breathtaking....if you know what I mean.
And I'm SO looking forward to see all my Danish friends again! *kiss*
