At the end of March/beginning of April, I got the chance of an action packed trip to Holland.
Unlike my ususal trips, I took the afternoon flight with Aer Lingus to Amsterdam. The down side was that I arrived quite late in Bergen op Zoom. But the journey went well and I got a chance to see my dad still that evening.
The next day after a quick lunch at my dad’s I travelled by train to Venray where I was welcomed by Wim. After a tasty dinner we went to the meeting where I met many of my old dear friends. Unlike me (maybe I’m wrong here), they all had grown older in the last decade or two that I had not seen them. After a morning in the serice we went to Andrea’s house. It is avery nice place. I forgot to ask her if I could post the pictures I took so sadly this has to wait.In the afternoon we went for a nice walk near Well (Yes that is a name of a place near Venray!) I had forgotten how beautiful it is down there. You would like to see some pictures? OK here they are.
Sadly the next day I had to pack my bags early to travel to Halsteren and get ready for the family reunion (see the seperate page on this website)
Sunday Anny and myself went in the Evening to Kees & Corry where I had my favourite food. Chips!
The remainder of the time was mainly spent on shopping and some other visits. The one that stands out the most is to Oom Pietje as I did not think at the time that it would be the last time I would see him!
So thanks to all who looked after me so well. And please come and see us.
My sisters did. I hope to do the that page shortly. Look out for the pavlova’s……
