The day after we went to my uncle and aunt's house (Nico and Wendy) and they took us boating - they have this amazing canal/island area behind their house, and everyone has boats. You'd never guess something like that was behind their house from the street! We even got to steer the boat for a while! It was so beautiful (ML - you've got to do this when youre in holland!)
We then visited my cousin Astrid, who has a 6 month old Thijs. Oh my gosh, what a cute baby! He's so round and cuddly and he's the nicest baby ever! He is really smiley and doesn't cry when I play with him LOL! He has these crazy blue eyes with white in the middle! I even got to feed him :D
The next day we were supposed to go into A'dam, but we woke up at 10.30am, and Stacy just went "meh, we'll go next time" so we ended up hanging out in Alkmaar, biking to my Oma and Opa's grave, and then to Bergen for an icecream and a haring for Stacy.
We went home and decided it was time to get ready for the game, we got on our fancy orange clothes, and got our orange vuvuzelas, and most of the family even sprayed their hair orange... - check out these pics of us and the scene in town:
we're off to the efteling today!
til later!
