The holidays are over - even when they had a stormy ending! Yesterday our country was hit by a violent storm, which caused a lot of damage. Trains in West and East Flanders were cancelled, for instance. That's why we were forced to take a taxi to get home! And we were lucky to be the first ones to ask for a long ride, because once in the car, our driver get one call after the other of people trying to get home.
It's still a bit unsteady right now, but there are trains running once more, thanks to a night of hard work by the rail services. Chris is back at work. I'll be glad when she can take her pension as well, so we can sleep a bit longer in the mornings (8.30 instead of 7 am) and go where and when we like. Now we're always concentrated on the school holidays.
But we had a great week, that's for sure. Two good shows to see, delicious food to eat, great hotels. And it's not long now to the next holiday. Easter break will be in 4 weeks' time. and once that's passed we're in for a couple of trips, to France, Holland and Italy.
As usual our neighbor took good care of our home while we were away. It's good to have such neighbors, don't you think?
Chris and Stijn (her colleague at work) are getting a new work force today. A young guy, that will need to learn how to the job. Am curious what she'll have to tell about him?
