Clearing


Upon coming back in Morwa we decide it's time to speed up our building project. Since we want to build the main house into the bushy, rocky hill we have to clear the building site first.


We live up to the local reputation of Dutch people: they can work. Soon there is a hole in the bushy hill about the size of the house - and two people walking around like they skated the Elfstedentocht without proper training.


Now that we can see the rocks the plans for the house can be finalized. Meaning an immovable rock or two, three ask for some adaptations. Meanwhile Bram's office annex guesthouse is almost finished; it only lacks outside painting and some fittings like a desk and counters for the washbasins.


The mother to our dogs is a lifesaver, always helping with the weeding, and sniffing out every creepy crawler and slider imaginable. Maud expected to cope with at least one more scorpion sting, but nothing exiting happened so far.

Wat een verschil van werelden,en dat op nog geen dag reizen van elkaar.Dat is wat mij ook steeds bevreemd.Mooie fotoos van grijs amsterdam.Heb je de boot nog uit het water gekregen?
Hey jongens,vertil je niet aan de grote stenen in de tuin.Bouw het huis er maar omheen,net als de Kaaba,je weet wel,in Mekka ;-)
