Japanese houses

Japanese are strange people for us westerners. We all know the weird quiz shows and the outrageously dressed teens, but what about homes?? Due to the high land prices every small plot is used, leading to some slim buildings.

Sinterklaas evening

A loud knock on the door let us know that Sinterklaas or Black Peter had paid us a visit. To his great surprise Boaz found a basket filled with presents for him and his cousin Luca.

What fun to open your presents and play with them!!

The grown-ups weren't forgotten either....

Sinterklaas

All Dutch children are looking forward to tonight when Sinterklaas and Black Peter come with sweets and presents...providing one has been good this year, of course. While mainly a festival for children, the adults are not forgotten either.

The kid is back!

After more than three months in his dad's country, Chile, Boaz is back Despite a nearly 24 hour journey from Santiago via Sao Paolo and Zurich to Amsterdam, my young nephew showed no sign of being worn out. Surprised and happy to see his Uncle Ben, Auntie Lydia and cousin Maurits, he came running through the gate.
