Tulips, Tulips and more people………….

Earlier this week I met this guy online and ended up having a real nice chat. A bit about live but we ended up chatting about our hobbies. Mine might be obvious, photography and he likes to paint. So I ended up showing him some of my work which he loved. He could even see the deeper meaning in some of the photo’s which I found great. So we decided to share our ideas and maybe do some work together in the future. But since I’m rather booked the next coming weekends with other activities I decided it might as well be a good idea to ask him over on Friday evening to do a “get to know each other” photo shoot. From the time he walked in we were both extremely relaxed. Chat a lot and we took some photos. It’s a really nice guy with a creative and sensitive mind, so we are surly going to do more shoots.

On Saturday morning I woke up rather early, but not feeling too great. But I had to go and meet my English friends in Zandvoort who were over to take moms to the Keukenhof. They bought me a ticket as well so I had to join. I was taken there by other friends and after a coffee we split up and I went to see the Tulips. It was the day of the “bloemen corso” which is a big parade with flowers held every year. So it was extreme busy in the Keukenhof and I ended up more looking at all the different people. Taking pictures of the flowers was very hard to do, since there where German’s and Chinese everywhere. 20 Minutes before the parade would pass, we tried to find a spot along the route. Bad luck since most places where taken already. And moms not being that tall could hardly see any. The only problem we had where the dogs. In order to get them back to the UK they need to see a vet 24 till 48 hours before departure. So I made an appointment at 5pm some 20 minutes from the Keukenhof. In order to get there on time, fighting our way back to the car, we had to leave on time and ended up waiting for the parade for nothing. It was late and after waiting for 50 minutes we really had to leave.

Once at the vet, which was the weirdest woman ever who did not stopped talking, I got a ring from my friends who took me there. If we would like to have dinner at the beach? So they were coming over again and we arrived at exactly the same time. Had a few drinks before taking off to the beach. We found this really good restaurant and after watching the sunset we had a very good meal. Once home I was exhausted and went straight to bed. There was no need to sit in the living room anyway, since the studio was still there.

I just restored my living room to its original state, and am waiting for a friend from Sneek who is coming over. We have to deliver some materials but other than that nothing planned for the day. But it’s lovely weather so we will see what the day will bring. All by all, another great weekend! I might get the hang of it.
