The duckies

Construction on the way to work. The people in the apartments behind it will love them for blocking their view.

In front of the IJ-kantine a mother duck is teaching her little ones how to swim etc. She's been there all week.

In the evening Marjolein and I were going to a meeting where a speaker would talk about worm holes. Unfortunately when we got there everything was closed. Somewhere something was not quite as expected. Anyway, we then walked to one of Marjolein's favourite spots in the dunes where we saw a really nice sunset, and also wild deer!

Then we missed the bus by a few minutes and had to wait 40 minutes. At least we were entertained by the police doing a speed-check. The best thing was when an officer stopped a car he thought was speeding to which his colleague replied "ehm no, it was the other car". The officer then said to the accidentally stopped driver "Oh well, you're here now anyway, let's do an alcohol test!". Well, at least i thought it was funny...
