hey
So monday, by far, was the earliest morning since we came... we had to get up at 6;00.... in the morning!!! yep.. tis true, we had to leave by 7:00 for the long 2 1/2 hour trek to Noordwijk(pronounced Nord-wike), with a couple stops on the way.. so on the 120 km per hour highways, you expect to get to places fast, right?? but we hit traffic and it lengthened our trip to about 3 hours.... but we eventually got there.. our first stop was Mauderodaum(don't know if thats how you spell it). It was really cool. It was like all of Holland.. in mini..so we pretty much saw all we needed to see right there :P we spent around 3 hours there, had some koffie and thee and then headed to the vehicle, our big, ugly van :) not too hard to find. then we left and stopped for some patat(french fries) with mayo(what a dutch thing to do :) and then went to my moms Oom Wim and Tante Gere's house, where we are still staying.. we went to check out the town, went to the beach, which was fantastic, except for the salt water. that was a little gross.. then we came back and were having dinner with somemore relatives... you'd think after seeing so many of them you'd get sick of them, but i like my oma's side of the family... umm... it was my moms cousin and his wife, can't remember their names, and their 3 kids, Tom(18), Ron(i'm guessing 14?), and Siem(or Simon in English,maybe 7) it was fun.. then we played some shuffle board, and after they left, went to bed at around 10:30
