What’s up?

Monday afternoon 3.30pm, Erika had a soccer game in Berkeley with her team.
She’s still has problem with her feet and the coach was so smart to give
her more time to recover. Wednesday afternoon it’s time to visit another team in Walnut Creek, James and I’m going with them to support the team from Saint Mary’s.
Its Tuesday, it was time to make some bread without the bread machine. I got last night the recipe from my mom in Belize. I can tell you perfect bread and it taste good; now its waiting for the lady’s what they say. During the time I had time to buy some plants and an axe.
The garden seems already better with some colorful plants. Another job was hacking the wood in smaller sticks. We had yesterday a little problem with the hearth in the dining-room but it seems that it goes well on this moment. I put the chicken in the rotisserie and now I’m waiting for the lady’s.

Lazy Sunday

Today I had a lazy Sunday; I make some correction on my new Belize website.
The site is finishing in the Dutch language and I hope to do something about the English version.
In the afternoon we (Erika and I) picked up Lenore for the St. Mary’s Football dinner.
Erika is the first female player ever since St. Mary’s school exists, and the best kicker of the team.
It was fun to see how everything goes and how the teambuilding is. This is really something else then a school in the Netherlands.
Well people as my normal day here, I try to listening a few hours to the Dutch radio Veronica on the internet. That’s nice about technology,

My favorite hobby

It’s 10 days ago that I in California arrived.
Of course is a change, first the Netherlands, a month Belize and now the United States.
I’m glad that Lenore and I had hours conversations on the phone, some people are talking so fast that it seems they have peppers in their … or hyper everyday. I can roll my eyes when the waitress in the restaurant does this. The last few days I’m busy in the back yard, planting flower bulbs and cutting the grass with a new toy, the land lawn. First we had a discussion about one on gas or electric. I didn’t saw the challenge to walk with a wire over the grass.
Last night we went to Berkeley for a standup comedian show, it was kept in a small room from a restaurant. There where five people with an act and around 25 people who enjoyed the show.
Afterwards we went to Zackary’s and eat a small pizza; the only thing I could complain was there beer. The beer was very good, only the measuring sucks. On the menu they tell that you get a pint, I’m maybe blond but a pint is around 0.45 liter and not 0.3 liter.

Happy New Year

Lenore is sitting in her house and sees how the rain is coming down while I’m sweating in Belize.
Don’t know where my last paper is but it’s on his way to Belize. We had a small party last night on my parent’s friend’s balcony. Typical Dutch food with rum/cola, isn’t it a nice combination?
Tomorrow day still have a day off in Belize, but the first thing I going to do on Tuesday is paying my stay at the immigration office. Of course I hope that the Embassy is calling me but I don’t expect that before Wednesday. Other thing is that Lenore is busy this week with working so that she can have time later of. Murphy’s Law is still around us but I hope to get there next week, yes people try to be positive. Till that time I hope to see something more from Belize, I didn’t see the South for a long time. Fact is that there are fewer tourists then on the Cayes.
