A week of reflection

The first week of august 2007 was reserved for LANDSORT. Me and Anna only had a week this year, but we made every second count by doing as much nothings as we could. Great feeling to come to a place where you do not have to do anything and were every day is a comfortable breath of fresh air. Even though the weather wasn't great in the beginning it turned into a great combination of Sun, Rain & Clouds. What happend when you are there should happend to everyone once in a while...but I realized that this is my yearly stay on a camping (very dutch thing to do...). With the subtle diffence that it is located in a place which isn't named "the end of the world" for nothing. I also realize a couple of important life-lessons or clichees... Not really sure if I am able to blog these things & am realizing right now that there are some things you should keep to yourself. I can only safely say that "a happy body floats well in cold watter!"

Our table has arrived!

after a 2 week waiting period...it finally happend! We got our pirate table!!! Thanks to Arno (of Becky) we were able to actually fit the monster deck through our staircase (with some scratches that will remind us to next time move the whole thing through the window...). When its legs were attached we could finally argue about something entirely different... the way it would be positioned in our living space. Wauw...but what a table! We can call ourselves the proud owners of a genuined recycled teak pirate deck! All the excusses about not being able to invite anyone over for diner until we have a proper table, can now be laid to rest. For those who actually read this blog (and that are friends of the pirate family ofcourse!) we extend our open arms!

The only challenge now is learning how to balance a wineglass on the course surface of the table... time for germanic drinking goblets with caps!
