Holland Festival




On the weekend of 18 and 19th February, we attended the Holland Festival at Sandown Raceway as we do every year. Adrian's parents sell Dutch/German CD's there and we go along to help out where we can. This year Adrian's Uncle and cousins from his fathers side came along. These are family members they haven't seen in a long time and I have only met once. Adrian's cousin Hilbert and his wife Virginia have two children, Ellouise, 6 months younger than Micayla and Jeremy 1 month younger than Bailey. Micayla was so excited to have met her "new" cousins and they played liked they've been friends since birth. It was so nice to see them and we look forward to seeing lots more of them in the future.

Adrian's father restores steam engines and he had a couple of engines on display. Much to the delight of 'Opa', Bailey has taken a real interest in the engines. Opa can't wait until he is old enough to tinker with the engines with him.

But the whole weekend was a little too much for Bailey and he just crashed right where he fell in the middle of the asphalt.

Wauw, looks good! The internet is great isn't it? Here in Holland is everything fine! I'm glad I'm home, but I really miss Australia. Especially the sun! Today is the first "sunny" day in Holland after 3 weeks without sun!! Well, keep in touch and take care!
