Mason was there to great us this morning (like every morning btw). Or rather, he wants us to kick his ball all day long. So for a change we did so I could make a picture but because my hot piece of equipment called camera is just as fast as a broadband connection in this country Mason is already faaaaar away...
We had a few errands (mam: errands = boodschappen) to do so around lunchtime we ended up in a mall again. A tiny one today but with everything you need nevertheless. I got a ham/cheese toasted sandwich at this small bakery. My best one here so far I must say.
The main thing today was looking at a new bed. It has to be a BIG bed. And there cannot be a feetboard. You see, I tend to kick them off due to my height. The one that Nicole is sitting on in this picture will be ordered tomorrow. It will be KING size (200x180 I believe). It also features 2 drawers so that's quite handy.
Going to our usual mall to pin money (we pin the max. for the day and then put it into our new australian bank account) we spotted more Dutch products of great quality! It is actually the -exact- same breadbox as the one we had in Amsterdam!
Malls are fantastic but in The Netherlands they hardly exist. This is funny because with so much shit weather you'd think they started building malls in the 17th century already, no?
This sign is attached to a checkout at the supermarket. It actually means that at this particular checkout no chocolate or candy is sold. This is handy if you have kids with a high risk of whining for candy!
I bought this apple juice today. It is megatastic! No added nothing. Just pure juice. It's green, not orange and also it's not very sweet. I'm in love with this drink.
Today was another good cleanup day in the flat where we're going to live soon. Stuff has been moved around and cleaned. This corner will hopefully soon become our command center from which we control the world.
This weekend there are national elections in Australia. You never realise but how do they vote in the outback? This photo shows you how. People from all surrounding villages drive to a certain location to cast their vote. (Photo is scanned from the voting brochure)

Gaaf bed! Mooie, warme kleur. Groetjes van je zussie:-)
I'm glad I don't have any boodschappen to do today. Tomorrow is the Thanksgiving Holiday and it's a big travel holiday for families reuniting, etc.
We went out for lunch and the traffic was worse than I've seen in most regular "rush hours."
@ Ilse: Dank, dank. Vandaag bestellen. En het bed op de foto is trouwens de kleinere versie van die wij gaan bestellen.
@ Kona: Traffic is going nuts in The Netherlands full stop, it's unreal. When Nic and I drove to the airport at 7AM there were already traffic jams all around the country, imagine.
