What a success! Even with the rain we had our first
and last night we still managed to stay dry and enjoy our trip to Friesland. On August 15 we ventured to one of the Wadden Islands, Texel where Tam finally got to see a lighthouse and was able to climb up the stairs to the 6th level! She was so happy it brought a tears to her eyes. We got to enjoy the amazing panoramic view of the Wadden and North Seas. After we ventured towards De Koog where we stopped to play in the North Sea and watch Jesse and Patrick bury themselves under sand and make a sand castle. We also got to witness seals swimming in the sea and of course Tam collected more seashells :) WE crossed back on the ferry to Den Helder where we drove right into a huge rain storm. The rain just came down in buckets the whole drive back to Sneek but we arrived safe and sound.

Yesterday we drove to Wijchen to take Jesse home and say goodbye to Jesse's Dad, Cor and then continue onto Elizabeth's home. Patrick was greeted warmly by Guus and Suzanne and of course Elizabeth. They also gave Tam a nice welcome too! Elizabeth invited us to stay for supper and her husband, Gerard came home from a day of work and we had a nice visit with Gerard also. Elizabeth and Gerard were just married on July 6th! Congratulations once again! We had a delicious supper and had an amazing visit. We said goodbye sometime after 10pm as we had an hour drive back to Deventer. What an amazing night we had!
Talk to you all soon!
Love From,
P&T in Deventer, Holland
