So much to catch up on...I'll just post bunches of photos, but it won't be a complete summary of the past month. Seems like you'll just have to browse through photos when I'm back. :) These photos are really out of order, sorry - there's so many though and I dont want to spend the time organizing.

| Bok Bier - a fall beer. Heavy stuff, not my favorite, but it's still quite tasty |
 |
| Visited my lovely friend Marlene and her family. Took a walk with Marlene, Anne and Mia - but Mia got tired so she and Marlene turned around. Anne and I kept walking and it was beautiful. Schipluiden, I say it again, is my favorite. And Anne was so animated telling me all about...everything. Loved it. |
