Morning: Wow! Has it been 3 weeks already? And it seems that we are still starting out, well, 9 more weeks to go, let's see how we are doing till then. My complains till now is mostly of my blisters due to the constant walking and dry skin due to the weather. I'm currently running out of my precious lip-balm and im stupid enuf to not bring more and also not keep the one i bought in London Boots (passed it to my sis-in-law to bring back to Singapore for me).

Morning: Finally got a good sleep last nite and woke up at 9am today. Watched some tv first before going to get ready and eat some breakfast. By the time we leave the apartment, it was already noon again. Afternoon: We decided to jus take the tram to town and walk around before going to the newly opened Asian supermarket to get some food to cook tonite for Yorien. She seems very excited about what we are going to cook for her so we feel a bit stressed to come up w something good and representative of our part of the country. Today is sunshine again but the wind is still very cold, we walked around to look for the tourist info office to get a small city map of the area and finally found it ... read more

Morning: Unfortunately i didnt have a good sleep last nite even tho i was dead tired, cos it was too cold again and i was struggling to keep warm till it was time to get up. Woke up at 7:15am cos we had to follow Yorien's car to this place called Keukenhof, it's pretty far and we didnt want to spend too much time and money to get there so since Yurien's travelling past the place, she offered to drop us there but she had to leave at 9:30am. She jus bought a Peugeot Cabriolet so we squeezed into her 2-door car and she opened the top to let in the sunshine which also meant cold wind blowing at us but it was fun and nice to be in the car in Netherlands travelling at fast ... read more

Morning: Woke up at 9:30am as usual even tho we slept at 3:45am, thought of making use of the extra time to go out and grab some of the unfinished stuffs i couldn't buy yesterday. So quickly washed up and went out at 10.30am. It's a long walk to the Carrefour supermarket and by the time i reach there, it's half-hour past. Bought a packet of lychee juice for Yuri and a big blue bag for myself cos my stuffs are overflowing from my present bags and then I head on to H&M to finally buy my clothes and then quickly head back. Afternoon: Reached back at 12.15pm and ate last nite's leftover food, pack up all my stuffs and said our goodbyes to Yuri and left for the train station. We reached there w extra ... read more

les lunes al sol letztes wochenende hatten wir wieder gelegenheit, ausgiebig die vorzüge der klimakatastrophe zu genießen. am 25. februar haben wir die nordseebadesaison eröffnet, bei strahlendem sonnenschein, barfuß, 15 grad und mit eisverkäufer auf der promenade. eigentlich sollte es nur ein schöner ausflug zu don marcellos geburtstagsparty werden. nachdem die jungs von mutter schabubu sich als mitfahrer angekündigt hatten war aber abzusehen, daß es ein wirklich hartes wochenende werden würde. freitagsnachmittags fuhren wir in montabaur los, onkel kai und das fun&crust-team begegneten uns noch an der gastanke, und kai meinte wir sollten sonntag abend mal in schipol am flughafen zum bier vorbeikommen, da steige er nach ruanda um. somit mit genug westerwälder gasttrinkern ausgestattet und 'ner kiste bier auf dem rücksitz machten wir uns auf in richtung der schönen niederlande, ich ge... read more

los piratas de puerto skeveningen heute kurz vor dienstbeginn rief mein allerbester holländischer lieblingsanwalt an um mir mitzuteilen, daß ich heute abend um 10 zum feierabend doch nicht wieder zurück in sein städtchen fahren brauch' um da zum zweitenmal für diese woche zu helfen spass zu stiften! ...war auch gut so, weil ich war erst montagmittag nach strandspaziergang bei denen weg, dann noch 'nen tag zum onkel nach bielefeld und dienstagabend nach mitternacht zurück, bin also auch erst so gute 25 stunden wieder im wald und seh' noch alles mit mittelstreifen... jedenfalls, die ehrwürdige stadtverwaltung den haag hat den für morgen früh um halb10 angesetzten termin im justizpalast, bei dem über den einstweiligen verfügungsantrag der piratenbar-punker gegen den räumungsbefehl der stadt entschieden werden sollte, selber abgesagt!!! mit der begründung, daß sie mehr zeit für verhand... read more
