This morning I went to church with Oom Ben.  He went on his scooter and I rode my bike.  Lots of people in Holland ride bikes to church, they even have lots of bike racks there.  Some of the churches also have an ashtray right as you walk in.  People stand right near the door and smoke, which doesn't seem to happen in Australia.
At church I saw Berdien Botter (my cousin) and Sanne and Ramon were with her because they had a sleepover the night before.  I also saw my cousin Anteun Eilander (son of Oom Gezinus and Tante Gerry), Tante Aly and Oom Bertus (he's an elder) and the Templemans.
After church, Enny (Oom Ben and Tante Bertha's daughter), her husband Hans and their children Jorian, Stephanie and Myrthe (from oldest to youngest) came for the day.

We had a really nice day together.  I tried to play a trick on Jorian but it backfired.  He's a bit of a bower bird (I think that's the right type) and likes to collect things from around Tante Bertha's house and put them in different places.  One of them is under my bed.  So I asked him if he could clean up a bit under my bed (beforehand I had put 3 mini koala bears under the bed).  But of course, he didn't see the koala's and probably thought I was really mean (he got over it quickly enough!)
The girls enjoyed playing with Maddi and were very gentle with her :

After afternoon church, we went to visit Opa and Oma's graves.

Finally, I will finish with a few photos I have made of old photos whilst at Tante Gerry's and Tante Bertha's :

This is my opa and oma Kuiper's engagement day.

This is my opa in front of their house on JC Kellerlaan.

It has now been demolished unfortunately, but I remember

it from our return trip when I was about 8.
