"A blog is frog, and frog is dog, and dogs say woof."
-Breanna Elizabeth Miklos in response to her having to write a blog.
No, everyone this isn't Miranda, ITS BRE! I have been getting requests on the daily to write a blog, so here it is. WARNING: The next few minutes of your reading will most likly have many misspellings and consist of topics not of your interest...
So today I got to play Sussie Puss. She is the Hopstraat kitten. Hopstraat being the street that the girls live on. Shes really cute and fun. This is one of my highlights of the week. Holland is FULL of kitties.
Have your ever spun wildly on one of those child play merry-go-rounds at a park? Well today I put Fiona on one and pushed with all my might. She then screamed out "NAY! NAY!" (which is dutch for no). I then took her off where she face planted into the sand as if she were drunk. HILARIOUS!! She layed on the ground a bit very confused as if she had never been dizzy before. Too cute. Then we played the day away in a childs fantasy land type play ground with zip lines, peacocks, and fake pirate ships.

I get to ride a bike everywhere. Thats cool. Sometimes cars dont obey the dutch law of "bikes have the right away". Thats not so cool. We have almost gotten hit a few times when we ride in the street and get made fun of when we ride on side walks... what to do!?!!?
On our morning walk today a man passed us and yelled back at us loudly in Dutch. (Not a very pretty thing.) Luckily many people speak English here including the other man walking infront of us. We were just going to laugh it off but instead asked him to translate. He responded with "You don't want to know." This made us want to know even more. He then proceeded to tell us that the angry man was screaming things along the line of "You started the war, end it! Horrible Americans!" Take it how ever you like...but this is the truth. Americans are not #1 on favorite countries of many Europeans.
We are going to Amsterdam this weekend. Wish us luck and many prayers :)
Untill next time,

p.s. We ate Subway today (yes they are GLOBAL and also where me and Miranda fell in love) and it was a 4 on a 1-10 scale. Good, not that good. And yes, I told the samich artist i worked at Subway, to INTIMIDATE her. The subs are the same..
p.s.s. I really like riding a bike everywhere. The thought of exercise along with no pollution is great. I also enjoy knowing the fact that everything I need is in my backpack. Its inspiring...ya thats the word. So GO RIDE YOUR BIKE!
p.s.s.s. Click the play button on the bottom of the video of Fiona singing at the table from yesturdayish's post entitled "Finoa sings in Dutch". It really works folks!! And its SUPER cute!!

Dave just pointed out the 'Fiona sings' video, at which point I immediately had to check out all the other posts. We are anxiously awaiting ones from the upcoming weekend :).
