Aliens Grote Markt?

Sun, 05/04/2003 - 10:23am

I was looking at the website of Haarlem.nl to find out where the commemoration service tonight will be, when I saw this picture of the Grote Markt:




As you can read here it's the tent for tomorrow's festivities.

In Rotterdam

Sun, 05/04/2003 - 6:58am

Yesterday we were in Rotterdam. Stella Maris, a scouting club, celebrated the official start of its sail-season and we went to explain games. We were with three people; Joana came with us.

In the morning we were uncertain about the weather, as the event would be outside. It turned out to be a really beautiful day, just a bit windy now and then. Last year we were there too, and we definitely wanted to come back because of the friendly atmosphere. Due to some holidays it wasn't as busy as last year. Still, we played quite some games. There was time for Sasha and Joana to explore sailing in a real sailboat! Well, there were people sailing the boats and they went for a short trip. A very interesting experience I've been told. We had hamburgers from the BBQ for lunch.

At the end of the day we made a short walk through Rotterdam. Remarkable how different this city is from most other Dutch cities.

Joana arrived

Fri, 05/02/2003 - 10:56am

This morning Joana arrived at Schiphol, after a journey out of sunny Bulgaria where it is 30 degrees now. The moment I'm writing this it's pouring with rain in Haarlem... let's hope the weekend will be better.

Interesting enough Joanna was flying on the very first flight of the new direct connection between Amsterdam and Sofia.

Teddy Bears.com

Thu, 05/01/2003 - 11:05am

The 4th assignment of Internet Programming is to develop a website where you can buy Teddy Bears online. It just has to be a simple prototype, although 'under water' it has to communicate with the "Bank" I made in exercise 3 and the advertisement server.

It is a very nice assignment (I like it better than programming in C), and a bit similar to my job. However at Chess I never have to bother about layout, and for this site that is part of the assignment of course. The very first version is ready, and it's ready for visitors! And if you ask me, it looks a lot nicer than the real Teddy Bears.com.

Jennie, a friend of mine is also doing this assignment, and she has created a website where you can buy sheep (she likes sheep).
