Cactus is blooming

Small pictureI was reading my book on the couch (on rooted bisimulational convergence), when somebody called. The moment I hang up the phone I looked out of the window, and guess what I saw... the cactus is blooming! It's very beautiful, click here for a big picture.

New York - Amsterdam

NYC - AmsterdamEverybody knows that Amsterdam and New York are two of the most important cities in the world.

They are remarkable alike, as you can see on www.nycasd.com, a website comparing pictures of Amsterdam and NYC.

Thank you Ettie, for borrowing me your camera!

Games again...

It never seems to end... we've played Steden & Ridders again, twice. Jerry and Marjolein were here, so after dinner we played the whole evening. Jerry won the first two; the last one was a regular Kolonisten which Marjolein won.

I'll go to Chess in a while to work on my practical assignment.

We had 54 people playing today in the tournament. Ettie brought here digital camera (thanks!) I've made quite a lot of pictures but I haven't been able to connect the camera to my computer yet.


Hans Baert is this weekend's big winner: yesterday he won the worldcup qualifications in Weesp and today he was number 1 here in Haarlem! The other person who will play in Eindhoven is Frans de Bode, an honourable third place is for Harry Rood.

Ettie, Mieke and Jaap also participated.

Awake already

Due to a broken alarm we're awake already -- it was 50 minutes ahead. At least we'll be on time for the tournament :)


Just heard that the demonstration will be in the same place as the tournament -- BC de Fjord, Paul Krugerkade 6.

Back from Haarlem

Boekhandel H. de VriesWe came back from a really nice game-demonstration. The shop we were in -boekhandel de Vries- is a big bookshop in the center of Haarlem. There were a lot of people coming in, and we explained many games.

I learned how to explain In De Ban Van de Ring today; I played it once with Jerry and Marjolein but that was a long time ago. We didn't bring the game ourselves, but a girl came by who asked if we could explain it. I told her I couldn't because we didn't have it, but then she went home and fetched her own.

Petra also came to see us; she played a game De Hobbit. After all this games we really want to play ourselves... so when Steven comes, he'll have no choice :)
