Hi to eveybody! And many sorry about my lack of comments on your blogs rececently but I have been veeeeery busy ... There has been something which has completely caught my attention....
I am sure you can guess what I mean... I went to The Netherlands!! And that was something I really have been dreaming about hundreds of times from when I got acquainted with Greetje through her blog
Amsterdam is a really beautiful city, but I have to confess that I only had eyes for Greetje!
She is wonderful indeed ( I am not only referring to her physical aspect ) and did so much to make my staying there the most comfortable and enjoyable!
We walked in the city, had a lot of great cappuccino breaks ( we two are very fond of it! ), chatted as we were old friends, and she was so kind ! ( on my part I can't tell how sorry I was when I realized I was not able to take good photos of her with her camera!!)
We did some shopping together ( isn't that what women are born for?? :-)
and I met a very special person :
Ron, her husband, whose hospitality and friendly smile I won't forget!
( despite the rain, he also arranged for me a wonderful travel in the canals on his boat!! )
We visited a delightful museum dedicated to bags,
and, at last, we focused our attention on Dutch design ( and we bought a new pair of sunglasses because that was the one we two extremely needed! :-)
Just a few things of life are as precious as friendship!
Greetje promised she will come to Turin soon, so...let's stay in tune girls!!
The city looks amazing and both of you looked fabulous...I love the picture with the mirror. So happy for you that you got to fulfill a dream!
