Run

I know her from her blog, Hnk from Mosul. Now she's going to be a mother. A mother on the run. That sounds bad for mother and child. She fled her hometown to Jordan. Isn't her sister in Germany and can't she be reunited with her sister?

Just a thought. Humantarian aid it's called I think.

A link to her blogspot:

cycling North

You know what the advantage is of cycling north?
It's the sun behind you and the shadow in front of you.
I can almost cycle on the compass of the sun. It's so easy. More than 1,100 kilometer north on my bicycle and I reached my goal, Skagen.


Yes, I've cycled to the north of Denmark. Back to Holland I travelled partly by train
 It was a tough trip with northern winds , the hills and the gravel paths. But I knew that. Partly.

Denmark is so windy. That's why it's logical to use the wind in providing electricity. Modern windmills are almost everywhere. Denmark almost a selfsufficient country.
The northern part of Germany is also windy, especially Schleswig-Holstein. Many windmills there too. That part of Germany is at the end of this year energy neutral.

Today I heard  that energysuppliers in my country have to decrease staff because of the export of Germany of cheap windenergy to the Netherlands. Even the Netherlands itself produces some energy to make a change.

All this means that we are entering the future where is no place for oil and coal
The stoneage didn't end because humans ran out of stones.....

Denmark

Right  now I think of all those years I'm blogging on this account. 10 Years already. I think it was May, june 2004, just before I went on a holliday to Sweden. And where have I been since then? Holland, Belgium, Germany, France, Switzerland, Spain. This year I want to go to Denmark. Let's try to find a cycleroad to that flat and windy country ;)

2014

We entered 2014, the first day is almost over. Happy New Year everyone!

When I look forward to what comes; Tomorrow will be the first full working day after 8 weeks.

I had my operation on my jaw postponed. Half november I had an operation and it took me 3 week to get back to work and 4 weeks to be completely back again for the full hours. Well that starts tomorrow. Today I came back from the north, where I celebrated new year's eve.

My garden will be full of apples this or next year. I have planted 3 trees in the garden. There is more to eat in the garden like granberries and blackberries right now. The tomato and strawberries have to be planted in the spring.

I picked up cycling again after the acccident in September. This time I cycle upstairs in the attic.

I note here that I still want to see the movie Brazil
