Last saturday we had a familyweekend from my part of the family in a familypark at Oudkarspel, a place here in North Holland. It's quite a new park but already had lots of things to do for everybody. We had also rented a circustent in case there would be bad weather, and we placed our bags and stuff in there. We were very lucky with the weather, it was sunny but not too hot so we sat outside at picknicktables and had coffee, tea and lemonade, and we chatted with one another cause we don't see eachother that much. The children ran around to check out the surroundings, there were these giant bouncy castles big enough for the adults too, but it was rather difficult to get even on those things, they were so high.

My oldest and my youngest brother, who is the strongest, and two sisters in law.
We also had our lunch at these tables, with the beard my husband, our youngest and one of my brothers inlaw.
On the water bicycle, got to taake your rest every now and then. ^_^
The blue was like a giant waterbed, very funny to walk on.
Taking my rest once again, was lovely.
On top of a hill where you had a great view over the terrain.
Like this.

At the end of the day we all had diner together.
It was a wonderful day with lots of fun things to do and lovely conversations, but in the afternoon at around half past two I got really really tired, I can tell I'm still not as good as I used to, getting there but not there yet. So I went into the tent and layed down on the floor, there were straw bales and I leaned against those, (they smelled lovely) and rested untill it was time for diner, luckily that wasn't too late, about half past four.
After diner I bought a lovely bottle of sweet wine and then we said goodbye and went home.
My doggie was so glad to see us again.
But I could tell I had this long day, been hanging on the couch al evening and the next day.
This upcoming weekend will be a long one aswell. Later this afternoon I will be picked up and with three friends we will go to Limburg, thats about a two hour drive. We will atay there for the weekend and go to the floriade, an agriculture exhibition with entries from around the world. On sunday we will go to Tongeren in Belgium for a brocante market. After that we will go home again, we'll see how I'll do, I'll probably will be very tired again, but also very satisfied.
(I hope you'll forgive me for any spelling faults, spell check still doesn't work.)
