Hosts house, Netherlands - 1st October 2010

By: Braveheart Sam

Hey mom, here I am again.
I forgot to give you a tour, so here it goes!

Look: fish!

Should I jump in?

Lots of things to do when my host is off to work.

Play with the dogs, but they are sooooo fast!
The brown one is Ami, he's born in Spain. The white one, you can see his foot, is Gaio and he's born in Portugal.
They are kind of DogVoyagers.

Here you see me on the map of Holland, I'm standing in the south, where I am now.

This is a very old globe. It's made of glass and as you can see, it has a light in it. I'm looking at Africa. Do they have turtles there?

Here I am standing in front of a huge home-made house. You can see one of the residents: a chinchilla. This one is called Gizmo. Not an original name, but she had that name, so they kept it. The other one is named Meisje, which means Little Girl.

There is some art hanging on the walls.

A bit of artwork, made by my hosts grandfather. He went to art-university and studied art. He wanted to become an artist. He made this painting in 1937, when he was still in school!
Granddad is no longer with us, but I love this painting. Do you?

And another piece of art. My host says it's a van Gogh, but I think she's crazy! It's a copy, but I like it anyway.
Later, my host admits it's not the real deal and the original is hanging in the Rijksmuseum Kröller-Müller, Otterlo.

My host loves to take pictures and she uses this camera.

Time to go to bed, just have to try out these pillows!

Love, Padi
