Cactus Oasis

G'day Mates,

I pulled myself together and after staying in bed for while due to a big cold, flu or whatever it was I think, hubby and I are ready again for new adventures.


But for now I still have to finish some Dutch stories so here we are; not a most likely Dutch thing but also a surprise to us; Cacti

We had family, Arnold and Trudy, staying with us for a few days and they had hired a little cottage at a farm close to us. They had invited us for two night for dinner and because the weather was terrible we did some cooking on a electrical plate with all small pieces of vegetables, meet and fish in stead of a barbecue.




The distance was only 3 k's so the first night we decided to go by bike.
We had a great time together and we had a lot of laughs as the men had been colleagues in their younger years and shares much memories.

Arnold likes filming very much and he had been to "Cactus Anny" a few year ago which is a cactus oasis in Ruurlo, a small town about 8 k's from us, unfortunately he had lost the film he had made then and so now he wanted to go there again. We hadn't been there before though we had heard of it, but actually we weren't really interested in Cacti.





Much to our surprise we really liked it and even spent a few hours in the oasis.



There also was a little museum about the life style of farmers back in the olden days.





I'm not that old yet, at least I don't feel old, but even I remembered a few things which had to do with school.  Who remembers this??;





Arnold enjoyed his filming and of course I enjoyed taking pictures.




Oeps




You must wonder why you haven't seen much Cacti yet? Well, of the most beautiful pictures of Cacti I made a little film, so watch and enjoy but be warned; you might like them soo much you want to hug them which is highly uncomfortable and not recommended haha!

Enjoy, Movie time;



See ya !
Cheers!

A cry for understanding.

G'day Mates,


We are just "home" and I want to give you an impressing of our flight back to Australia, especially the last bit from Kuala Lumpur to Melbourne after we had 3 great days of loving life and culture in Kuala Lumpur;

OMG what's happening to me, I had a roller coaster of emotions on the plane. Glad to be going back to safe Australia and sad to leave stressed Holland. Every music I hear makes me cry and I don't know why. Tears are rolling down my cheeks.

God this torn between two lovers is getting to be a big deal. I don't think it's the hormones that's too easy. Besides that, I later heard from my Hubby he had have the same emotions.

Maybe its all the good bye's the last few days or even the idea, that deep down we know we need a miracle to stay in Australia.



Every song I hear is a potential song for my own funeral, sounds very heavy but it truly were my thoughts. Djeezzz why am I so occupied with that, I have honestly no idea and no motive. Maybe it's because we lost 3 dear family members just recently and you suddenly realize live is short and can be gone just like that.

Guys I need some time, I can't do happily new stories at the moment (and there are a few), sorry. I'm going to sort out my moods and come back asap. Promised!! Love to all my fans!

Cheers.
