Christmas in London
.
As mentioned in a previous entry, I spent Christmas in London with one of my closest friends Gabrielle (oh, and the injured Choco).

We had planned how we wanted to spend our day - eating, drinking, and eating LOTS more. We figured if we couldn't have our families around us, we would surround ourselves with delicious food instead. In the end, we didn't even eat half of what we bought. But we had a lovely relaxing day and a fabulous Christmas dinner.
So excited (as a girl) to get a chance to carve the turkey (portion)!
.
The result. Gourmet!
.
My apologies
.
I know it has been a while. I am now about to make a mammoth attempt (while my dinner cooks for twenty minutes) to get myself back into the blogging mentality. Probably by now no one even checks my blog but(!) just in case, I will try to back track and update with the major events of the past two months. You will see a number of entries go up with nothing in them - this is to motivate me to post, and to excite you about what is to come!
Enjoy.

Walking on water...
.
On the weekend my dutchie friend took me out to Zaans Schans which is about 20mins out of Amsterdam. It was the first weekend in over ten years that you could walk and skate on the rivers and lakes in Holland. Sooooooo much fun!!!
.
There were lots of windmills in the area. On the video you can see people walking & skating on the ice. These little rivers weaved through the fields / wetlands that you can see in the background.

Christmas is over
.
Christmas trees are being abandoned on the frozen canals
(which are now starting to melt)
.
.
(I only ever get the chance to take night time photos of my neighbourhood!) .
and ice rinks are being disbanded...
(Brugges).
It's always sad when Christmas is over but at least no one has gotten around to taking down all of the lights (cities always look so much prettier with twinkling Christmas lights). Oh... and easter eggs are now for sale so it's not all doom & gloom!!
