Got a camera again....so we're back in action

We've finally got a digital camera again...just in time to capture the carnival festivities in our hometown. Haven't figured out how to upload photos yet, but Ces said he'll read the manual soon. So last weekend was Carnival (Mardi Gras), and it's a massive event in the south of Holland. Some people put aside money from their monthly wages into a carnival kitty so they can spend it all during the few days of festivities. We went to a party last Friday night hosted by Paul's company which was a lot of fun...many weird and wonderful costumes, incredibly packed, some daggy Dutch music and a lot of dancing. I felt like the shortest person in the room...this is a very TALL country. Anyway, we're off to Belgium this weekend to celebrate our one year wedding anniversary. It's hard to believe it's already been a year. So much has happened since, but yet it also just feels like yesterday that we tied the knot...
