Pinksteren
















Friday afternoon granddad and grandma came over from De Lier again to stay the weekend in their caravan on the camp site nearby. We tried to pursuede them to have pizza's with us but without luck, they had their fresh food for the evening.. Dad painted another wall in the new downstairs room so that is another small step towards a finished house.... Dad went to the local supermarket to get a couple of pizza's and Nils ans Wende joined him. In the shop they shouted the whole time "pizza!" and dad loved it.. Saturday morning dad went to the ducati dealer to have dad's supersport repaired, shiting gear down seems to be a problem from 4 to 3 and 3 to 2.. And the supersport needs a new rear tire.. Granddad followed him in the volvo cabriolet with wende in the back seat. On the way there some loonatick on another bike almost pushed dad of the road but in the end, this.... ended up at the same ducati dealer so we had a little chat.. After we ditched the ducati we went to the great Andelse day. Once a year there is some sort of festive day in our village where you have stalls with toys and all srts of things you don't need but end up bying anyway. Not this time, this year dad only bought a loempia, typical dish not in Andel but Asia. Mom however, bought a case of cherry's and some toys for Nils and Wende. Nils loved the cherry's so mom had some serious competition. Granddad bought some more toys for Nils and Wende and we saw a model car race near the old church tower. The afternoon was spent in our garden with friends of Wende and Nils. Sunday was spent in the playgroud at Neder Hemert zuid. In the evening we had a bbq with granddad and grandma. On monday, second pinkesterday Whitsun day, we went to the swimming pool in Genderen first and after that to the camp site where Martin and Judith and the kids joined grandpa and grandma on the beach. We did not stay for dinner this time because we had so much fresh food in the fridge which would be a waste if we had to through it away. All in all a very nice weekend with lots of sunshine. Let's hope we have more of where that came from.
