| 5th March 2007 margôt | echt mooi daar - From: Paradise living Zet net de pc aan en zag een nieuw blog. Lekker zo die zon foto's, hier echt gezellig met grijze wolken en duilregen. Veel beter bij jullie daar. Zou er zo naar toe gaan. Goed om te horen dat het leuk te doen is met kindrs erbij. Je weet maar nooit. Gisteren Mir d'r vader nog zien joggen, geweldig voelde me gelijk een ouwe out-of-shape moeke. Hij heeft het best naar zijn zin hier. Peet z'n moeder was nog geweest en zei dat ze heerlijk gegeten had. Volgens mij kunnen jullie makkelijk nog wat langer wegblijven want die "oudjes" (niet dus) vermaken zich hier best. He jongens geniet er nog effe van en veilige reis terug. Doei Mar |
| 27th February 2007 louke | paradijs - From: Update from Paradise Het is fantasties zoals jullie ons op de hoogte houden van al die evenementen, zo'n beetje rondtoeren in een rv is natuurlijk een enige manier. Ja wel veel impressies, maar met de photos en dagboeken zullen jullie er nog jaren plezier van hebben. Aan weer heb je niets gemist hier, dus geniet van zon en zee en als jullie gaan surfen op Long Beach, kom dan even langs!!. Love to you all, L. |

| 18th February 2007 Margot | Mooi die tijger - From: pics, pics and more pics Zit net effe met Mel de foto's te kijken. Leuk joh, al die bootjes en die tijger. Vond je dat niet eng?? En tussen al dat rondkijken toch nog tijd vinden om te exercizen, knap . Hebben jullie al wat lekkre thaise recepten weten te bemachytigen?? Peet zijn favorite eten op het moment, maar jullie willen misschien een bordje stamppot zo langzamer hand misschien. He joh, geniet er lekker van het begint alweer bijna op te schieten. Tijd vliegt verschrikkelijk hard tegen woordig. Ik geloof dat jullie nu in Australie zitten maar onze email stuurt niet zo vlug door. Veel plezier nog, Doei Margot |
| 17th February 2007 Randy | Looking good - From: pics, pics and more pics Great job with the pics Miriam. I'm impressed! Australia looks good so far eh? Enjoy the road time. Maybe you'll have some experiences like the Griswald family vacations? Remert = Chevy Chase? Oh boy. Have fun. |
| 17th February 2007 The McCarthys | - From: pics, pics and more pics great pictures! Thailand looked great but I'm sure you're ready for a little more luxury eh Miriam? Kids...there was a big road hockey game going on yesterday but not the same without the Dutchies! Continue to enjoy your time away, as reality is only a month away. Everything is going well here, Lex's team should hopefully make it to the provincials if their playoffs go o.k. Baby Brett turned 18 yesterday! How did that happen? Lauren has been busy doing all of her volunteer work, so we are all keeping busy. Have a wonderful time in Australia. See you soon. Lucille |
| 17th February 2007 Rupert | Very Inspiring - From: pics, pics and more pics Hi Guys - it’s been great to follow your family adventure.

| 4th February 2007 Nazzy18, Caleb & Ben | you crazy dutchies! - From: rest day! a big HELLO to Meindirt from Nazzy18 (Clay), Caleb & Ben. We were all just checking out your pic's of the elephants and we were wondering if meindirts elephant gave him an extra shower?! The boys figured you were having a pretty sweet ride and it looked like a ton of fun. Clay wanted to let you know that he saw some timber wolves up at grouse mtn. on friday when he went skiing. right now the canucks are playing against calgary and the score is 3 - 2 for the flames :(. we can't wait to see you again! Clay wanted to let meindirt know that the ice dogs are doing well and he scored 2 goals in one game!. |
| 4th February 2007 Wendi | What a time you're having! - From: rest day! We're really enjoying the updates! Looks like you're having an amazing time and really getting a feel for what it's like for the locals there. The elephant ride must have been a blast - very brave! Sure could use some of that heat around here but at least the last week has been sunny - finally. Carson actually played a home game today with no snow and no rain - very nice indeed. I'm taking Bruce to see the "Barenaked Ladies" at GM Place tonight so that should be fun. I've also been going to Pilates and am very committed to sticking with it. Had Jodi over for coffee last weekend and went to her place for happy hour yesterday and she seems to be in good spirits. Enjoy your river trip - looking forward to the next update. |
| 3rd February 2007 Cathy | so colorful ! - From: rest day! wow loved the elephants the other day, and more great pictures today-- those Long Neck ladies are facinating, I always thought their neck did strectch; who knew it was their shoulders that dropped? Well I am learning so much when I read your adventure blog. We really enjoy it. It's like a book I can't put down-- what's happening in the next chapter?? We miss you kids ! I see Balou going for a walk everyday- he's good that way- always looking after your Poppa ! ::stay happy:: love cathy & bill |

| 2nd February 2007 Harrald | watch it buddy!! - From: hello. Remmert, nice photo you and that elephant. But watch it buddy, they have a real good memory !!! Veel plezier Harrald |
| 2nd February 2007 the McCarthys | Wow what a wonderful experience! - From: hello. The street is oh so quite without you kids playing outside! We're glad to see what an amazing time you are all having and I'm sure the Thai won't soon forget all the cute blondes (Mariam and Remmert included!) We're surviving the "routine" of schoolwork/work and the kids are finished all of their exams today so are very relieved. Take care and have fun. Lucille |
| 2nd February 2007 louke jan | elephants - From: hello. Ik ben helemaal dol op olifanten, heb er eindeloos boeken over gelezen en toen ik heel heel jong was voerde ik de olifanten in de ouwe diergaarde in Rotterdam altijd lekkere dingetjes, they loved it but it was not very organically friendly elephant food for them. By the way what a difference between pa Remmert and son Meindert climbing off and on an elephant trunk, a joke. Iam thoroughly enjoying your blog and find it amazing you keep abreast of illuminating us of your wonderful travels. Louke |
| 2nd February 2007 johan and Jacqueline | Wow Elephants!! - From: hello. These are amazing photos! Cant wait to hear what that was like way up on the backs of elephants kids. Remmert looks like he had the potential to make the elephant nervous when he got back on. |
| 1st February 2007 Margôt | Good protein?? - From: Update January 29th from Lampang Hi Guys, enjoy your stories and pictures. Looks fantastic. Came home from work today and did not feel like cooking boerenkool maar na die foto van al die deep fried bugs denk ik dat boerenkool toch wel lekker is. Hebben jullie er wat van geprobeert?? Weer is sort of lekker, wordt kouder van de week. Mag ik eigenlijk in het nederlands bloggen of niet? Tjuus |
| 30th January 2007 Meindert | Tunas pizza oven market in Thailand? - From: Update January 29th from Lampang Tuna's Pizza Market?? Have Fun and perhaps you can bring a trained soccer elephant home to Canada. |
| 29th January 2007 Caren | Veel plezier met de olifanten! - From: Update January 29th from Lampang Het is zo leuk om jullie ervaringen te lezen. Ik zie het allemaal voor me. Die olifanten zijn er behoorlijk in getraind om je geld af te troggelen so be careful! |
| 29th January 2007 de Bruijntjes | love the geko Meindert!! - From: Update January 29th from Lampang Wat een te gekke reis, ongelooflijk!!! Iedergeval denk ik dat je toch eens een fried bug moet proberen om ons te vertellen hoe dat smaakt (HA HA)!!! |
| 29th January 2007 Harrald | Great !! - From: Update January 29th from Lampang Great, that you spend so much time to show us these beautifull things of Thailand. Super......... I heard that the Thai's really eat those geko's ???? True???? Have fun Harrald |

| 26th January 2007 Peter @ the clinic | craving carbs .... - From: Goodmorning rest of the World Personally I see a big bowl of steaming spagetti with bolognese sauce and fresh parmasan cheese sprinkled on top. If I squint really hard behind the spagetti I see a banana split from dairy queen ..... Nice to read all is well; we are living with a balmy 7 degrees and some sunshine today here in the "wack", so thanks for sharing ..... |
