The Eagle has landed...

Goedemiddag

I have arrived and am safely in the Orange land! The flight was ok just a bit uncomfortable but at least the food was good! It is the first week of things and all is going well! It is nice and cold here with an average temperature of about -5 degrees, so a coat and gloves are very much needed when going out the door lol. But thank goodness for central heating inside hey! :)
So far we have done a bit of travelling, exploring the south of Holland. We went to the place where Germany, Belgium and Holland meet, whic is on top of a hill. Then a nice small town and ran across a frozen lake! And the rest of the time just chilling.

Things here are very different and strange. I went to the shop and found out just how cheap things are and how tasty things are here lol! And to see bicycles ruling the roads is something to see, not to forget they are on the wrong side of the road lol! But one thing is for sure, we are definitely years away from them... like we are in the dark ages or something!

This weekend is family gatherings and my first club experience, which should be interesting seeing this is a "small town" yet the club holds 2500 people!
And the coming week is carnival, a region wide celebration that last 4 days and is basically a big drinking, eating and dancing festival!! Everyone dresses up in funny outfits and goes out and parties lol!!

But for now I will leave you with the link to some photos of the past few days!
