IJburg - a very modern neighbourhood
Many of the houses are only semi attached to land
It must be very lively here in the summer time
It is very common in Holland to build narrow and up
Damrak - Very festive and very crowded
Getting the Christmas feeling
Atli and Dora were pretty good with the bow and arrows
Having fun
Great Nu Skin friends, Rob and Thea came for a visit and some business advice
With Rob, Thea and Tionist & Rebecca
At one of the great places we found via Tripadvisor - this one was in walking distance
The bridges in Holland are a whole chapter to themselves - never seen as many different bridges in one country
Gudrun at the home of Eriko, Noud and Naomi
It was so great to meet good friends that we had lost touch with for a decade or so
Christmas dinner in full preparation
Gudrun enjoying the kitchen time
Dora helping out (this time it was mostly for show :-))
Atli relaxing between card games
We brought our "steaks" from Iceland. Those are made of nuts, seeds, sweet potato and herbs
The final touch
The owners of the house brought us a box with Christmas ornaments that we made good use off
Brother and sister at the Christmas table
uuu.. fine wine :-)
Our little sweet Christmas tree, imported from Iceland
The living room was on the third floor - it was a challenge to bring up beverages in both hands as the stairs are pretty steep
We had some good laughs playing different games
Dora was determined to "capture the moment" with her new camera - had almost 10 of her mother laughing
It looks like he won something
Dora bringing presents from the tree
Benedikt lining up his ships in battleship
We had a tournament that unfortunately Benedikt won - for some reason he seemed to win everything
The cards were very Christmas like
It was a peaceful area and beautiful at night
There is something magical with living "on" the see
Narrow and up!
Peaceful
Time to go home - Dora at the airport
Dora got a colour book for adults from her brother and it is pretty addictive to start colouring in it
Dora and Atli enjoying their very comfy flight home
