Our first Dutch days we had nice, dry, hot weather. As is to be expected, by now Maud has a cold and we wear two sets of clothes: it rains as if The Flood has started, and Botswana’s winter for sure is warmer than this Dutch spring.

The Flood
Our first Dutch days we had nice, dry, hot weather. As is to be expected, by now Maud has a cold and we wear two sets of clothes: it rains as if The Flood has started, and Botswana’s winter for sure is warmer than this Dutch spring.
WWS Dutch 2
Being used to all these South-African mansions we’re lucky we can spend our first Dutch weeks in equal surroundings. Because our Leiden-house is still rented, we stay with Marijke, Maud’s mom, who has a very spacious garden, compared to most Dutch BBQ-patches. We sleep in the cottage on the right.
WWS Last African Night
The Night Before - our flight to Europe, we spend at Lieb’s place in Pretoria. You never need a reason to have a braai, but this evening we had one: Lieb’s birthday. Staying in the Royal guestroom after a party-night guaranteed a good night’s sleep, despite the stress about getting ourselves organized the next day for our big trip.
