All in one: we're no fun at the moment. Our 'prepare for boot camp' party weekend on the other hand was absolutely fabulous.
To start with we had our by now traditional commemoration of our wedding day with Maud's foster-parents Janny & Cees (last year). We stay in their Zeeland farmhouse, and have our pick of shows during the Zeeland Autumn Festival. They just finished renovating the house, and the result is stunning!
Maud by the way managed to totally forget 'it' on the big day itself, because she was too busy revamping Bram's study. Is it an excuse she forgot her own birthday also? Anyway, Bram was not amused, but because he's a darling he took her out for Mexican food anyway to celebrate our first date.
It's a pity we forgot to take pictures of the Zeeuwse mussels and oysters we had for dinner, cause there's another traditional Dutch dish for you: cooked mussels and chips. Delicious!!! Also delicious is the famous Dutch raw herring, which you have to eat like shown in this poster Bram designed for a 'megweregwere integration project' (the bearded man is Bram's dad Ivan sr).
