America finally wins one.

So I had a busy and fun-filled weekend. I went with my awesome grandparents to de Hermitage Amsterdam. It's an extension of the 'real' one in St. Petersburg, Russia. The Netherlands has a good bond with Russia dating back to the marriage of Anna Povlovna of Russia and William II of The Netherlands. They had an exhibit of Orthodox religious art. It was a really nice museum. Afterwards, we walked around the market on Waterloop plein and made our way to Het Munt.


Illegally taken photo. I wanted you guys to be able to live it.

I came across another Bansky! (at least, I'm pretty sure given he has an obvious style).

Krissy, this one's for you. It's a bad picture but you get the idea.
I bought it for the apartment George and I will be living in come  August. It lights up the houses
when you put a candle in it.

So hideous and wrong that it's awesome.

That night I went out with Pim, Fleur, Sisca and Patrick to De Kroon in Amsterdam. It was really fun!


Sunday I went to visit Kim, Kees and Thijs in Aalst. Off course the trains had to take an hour detour because of construction but it was worth it. I got to see Frans and Janine too!

"I don't have time for this."





Today was over 30 degrees Celsius here! Let me clue you in on why that sucks. There is no AC. I sat in front of a fan all day at work so that was okay. I pretty much finished the garment and I'll be starting something else tomorrow. Edwin and Nick worked on getting the shoes ready for the hooves so I'll probably be doing that. There may be another hope for a location for the show. Edwin is planning on going either tuesday or wednesday and coming back thursday so I hope it all works out.
