Sunflower

Two months ago I plant a few seeds 

A few weeks later they became a real plant
Every day I give it water and named it 'Vincent'

And now I know why Vincent van Gogh liked sunflowers so much

Little package, big surprise

When I was a young girl, I liked to rollerskate
What a big surprise to recieve a brooch today from my daughter. 
She ordered it from this lovely Etsy shop.

An Afternoon in 's Hertogenbosch



Hidden below the old city is a canal network called the Binnendieze it used to be 22 kilometres long. It started out as a regular river, the Dommel, running through the city in medieval times but because there was not enough space in the city, people started building their houses and roads over the river.


In recent decades, the remaining six of the old waterway systems has been renovated, and it is possible to take a guided boat trip through it.
