Ik speek geen Nederlands, or, I don't speak Dutch.

Last night was a very rough night for me. Bre fell asleep pretty quickly but I tossed and turned. I finally fell asleep around 4am, after cleaning our flat a dozen times, updating the blog, checking facebook and my email. Our alarm was set for 7am. This morning we woke up and poured coffee into our mugs and walked the two miles to Kendra and Dave's place...it felt very comfortable to be able to walk around with our coffee mugs. Today we spent the whole day with the girls, Fiona and Tessa. We took them to the petting zoo at our campground...they have peacocks walking around everywhere! And there are goats, sheep, minature horses, cows, and pigs and babies of all kinds. Fiona liked the goats and Tessa really liked the sheep, she started to kick her feet and giggled when we walked over to them.











They also have some beautiful birds, I caught these two kissing. I thought it was cute...lovebirds. Fi seemed to attach herself to Bre today. She wanted Bre to hold her hand and walk with her and feed the ducks with her. It was very cute. Afterwards we came back to our place, washed up real good, and set up for a picnic in the yard. It was a very nice afternoon for a picnic and we enjoyed it very much.



Bre and I are finding our way around quite easily, Delft is a pretty simple place and a good place to start with our travelling. This weekend we will probably stay in Delft and visit the local bars and restaraunts. We really do love it here...we may never come home. Only thing is a lot of people try to speak to us in Dutch and Bre and I just kinda smile and say, "Uh, English?" Today we learned the phrase, Ik speen geen Nederlands, or, I don't speak Dutch. Maybe when we feel more comfortable we will try to use that.















This is me throwing Tessa up in the air - she loves that!











Bre wanted me to post this picture of a cat.


We keep seeing Cats everywhere...all with collars so they are not strays, but they won't come to us and don't like to be pet. As with dogs they move out of your way and could care less if you pet them but thier owners stare you down if you go near them.



Bre doesn't like to write...so it looks like I'll be keeping you all updated. Maybe I can get her to write a blog or two. No worries, though, I love to write.


Oh, We have also found that it is very light very late. It's 9:30 p.m. right now and its looks as if it were six leaving us to believe that the sun never sets in Holland.
