I arrived safe and sound and right on time at the Schiphol airport. The flight was mercifully devoid of any serious turbulence. I read and slept a bit and I even made friends with my seat mate, a lovely older German woman who has promised to invite me to her apartment in Burnaby for kaffee and kuchen as soon as she returns from her vacation to visit her family in Cologne.
My sister met me at the airport and brought me back to her lovely flat before speeding off to work. The apartment is filled with beautiful light and and Lisa and her boyfriend, Paolo, had left me a small feast of bread, cheese, olives, wine and cookies. I spent the afternoon eating, reading and taking some photos and then napping and exploring my sister’s neighbourhood in the rain. I found a market that was filled with inspiring ingredients which will come in handy for the cocktail party that we are hosting for some friends on Saturday.
It is now time for bed but tomorrow promises to be a day filled with some sunshine, time to photograph and explore the city and a special lunch with Lisa and Paolo. And I am sure a surprise or two.
So Happy you had a good plane ride over. Now put on your happy shoes and have a wonderful time. Love the picture-thanks for sharing…Lucky-Lucky You….
The apartment looks great! Can’t wait for the daily updates.
