holidays

Last Friday was my last day at work. June 16 will be my first day after the break and in between I'll cycle. Tomorrow May 19 I'll start. The weather will be improving. (It was shivering cold last week and rainy too)
Now I'm packing.

By the way, yesterday I made a nice picture of a giant insect, a dragonfly.



All virtual friends, especially Ocean, take care.

video's from the train going home

Last week I went to Family on a beautiful day.. May the 5th, Liberation day. The day we celebrate the end of WW2 in the Netherlands.

It was the same trip Anne Frank made in 1944 from Amsterdam to Westerbork. The difference is I did it 64 years later and in different direction.
The first 2 movies is what she could have seen in a 1944 setting.





This is a movie of the train coming to a stop at my hometown Utrecht. Hear the sound of the breaking wheels...


Apparently the video's have to be installed with help of youtube ;-)
Next time

Ocean, I'm okay. We had almost 2 weeks of holidays here in the Netherlands. Luckily we had very good summer weather too.

I'll go to the south of France by bike on May 19. (1,500 kilometer) Probably I will not post.
