Amsterdam Light Festival.

Simone and I walked the walking trail of the Amsterdam light festival tonight. It was fun but very few sculptures were special to me. Here are most of the sculptures we saw. I'll mention the ones that appealed to me.

This was a letter from Spinoza, floating on the water. Nicely done.

There was a lot of sculptures made up with wires like this. I didn't like them much...

I like this one a fair bit but we couldn't get close enough for a good picture. You can only get close by boat.

I like this sculpture a lot.

This is one of my favourites.

I like the photo better than the actual sculpture to be honest...

And that's about it.

The beach

Simone and I went to the beach this afternoon. Lovely weather.

Just  bit windy ;-)

Love the sea. Love it.

The strong wind made pretty shapes in the sand.

Closer...

The King.

The crappy exhaust pipe

So recently I bought a new powersteering pump because the garage said that it was the cause of the rattling noise coming from the engine bay. Upon my own inspection I now found out that the heat shield of the front exhaust pipe is loose. With a running engine it shakes about and it makes a lot of.... rattling noises. Looks like I better invest in a new front pipe instead of replacing the powersteering pump...

Loos at the top...

And completely loose at the back as well.

The connection between the front pipe and the catalytic converter-pipe is also about to give up.

Merry Christmas!

We had a little Christmas breakfast this morning.

Late arvo our families came over for dinner. Simone cooked a really lovely dinner for all of us. It was yummmmm :-)

It was a lovely day :-)

The busy day

It's the last day before Christmas 2015. I was very busy at work with a bit of an urgent issue at one of our clients. Since I'm not in next week I wanted to wrap it up as much as I can before passing it on to my colleagues next week. Because of this there are no piccies today...

The view

Enjoying my work-view a bit today. It's pretty awesome!

Shit coffee.

We have this fucking expensive coffee machine now and I think it sucks. Too complicated to operate, don't like the coffee and quantities are shit. Not to mention the bloody noise when it's grinding those crispy fresh beans. Oh boy! Oh boy! Oh boy! I might have to bring my own machine to work coz I miss the few cuppa's I have...

Station Sloterdijk is around the corner. It's got some veeeeeerry nice little shops! ;-)

First real day in the new office

First morning taking the bus to my new office. Shortest day today, meaning lots of darkness. Yuck.

I can see 2 highways joining. It's the A5 joining the A10.

Looking down.

Just can't stop looking outside...

In the evening I checked out this place you can drive to and rent a garage spot to work underneath your car yourself. It seemed OK.

The movies

In the afternoon the girls went to some girly movie and Milan and I went to see the new Star Wars movie. I loved it!

This is coming soon. Gotta see!
