Hello all,

Look at the funny bunch on this photograph.  We were all celebrating OUR DAY -  The Feast of the Flemish Community !

Be proud to be Flemish and make a toast to our rich culture !  Be proud that we can join so many festivities in our neighbourhood !  Be proud to live in the centre of the world, where some people get 'LOCO' even more than in San Fransisco !

Hello my dear friends,

Here I am back to tell you about my trip to Budapest. 

With a bunch of friends we all joint a wonderful trip to Budapest.  

The weather was great (35 to 36 degrees) and the environment was beautiful. 

Together with Kinga we made a trip by bus and by boat (on the Donau).  

We arrived at the highest point of Budapest where we could take some extraordinary shots of the city.  

The collage hereunder explains a lot I guess.

Hi dear bloggers,
A whole weekend Theater aan Twater.  Two lovely sunny days, animation of world class by international artists.  On saterday a spectacular night event with acrobats acting in the air and on sunday the famous dance group Baba Yega.  Ooh what a weekend again !!!

Hello dear friends,
A family day !!  This day was a very special day for my nieces as they were celebrating their Holy Communion.  Afterwards we all came together to have a meal at my parent's place.

Hello My dear blog friends,

This saterday I went to Ekeren where I bought the new Belgian stamps in pre sale.  There was a sheet of 10 stamps with the Belgian Tour the France winners.  Also some other interesting stamps to be added to my collection.

Afterwards I went to see some friends in the neighbourhood.  With Tatiana, Eleanora, Andrej and myself  we could form a wonderful TEAM again.

Remember the good old days...

Dear blog friends,

Every year on the same holiday you can visit De Schorre where you can buy plants for your garden and watch traditional artists, taste special artesanal local or less local products as providers come from all over Belgium and even from abroad to join this special event and to promote their goods and arts.  Here below you can have a look at some beautiful pictures taken at this popular event.

Hello all,

Good weather, enthousiastic people and the Red Devils all in one shot.  Good atmosphere at the king Boudewijn stadium in Brussels.  I arrived at about 3 PM and at about 4 PM I left again because players left the place at about this time too.  Nevertheless there was more than enough time to take some pictures.  Have a look below.

 

Hello my dear friends,

Believe it or not.  Even my sundays are fully booked.  At 11 o'clock I went to the Spanish church to sing and dance.  Always a warm welcome there and passionate people.  At noon, I went to my parents to celebrate and have dinner together with the whole family (my parents, my sister, my brother and my 2 nieces)

Afterwards I had an appointment with an ex colleague Monika in Brussels.

Monika is a sweet and wonderful Polish woman with whom i worked with at Schulman.

Having a drink outside and a chat.  What a lovely day in the sunshine ! Great !! 

Hello Party People,
This time no party but a serious job !!!   The clean up of the local park Boom.  You can see on the pictures below that this job had to be done !!  With a whole bunch of 'guys & dolls' we've done a great job.  To everyone in our neighbourhood, thanks for keeping the park clean in the future !!
We were all happy that we could do this job for our community.  After the job we had a drink in 'Het Melkhuisje' (The Milk House) to recover and have a chat about what we have done and what actions can be implemented for the future.  A SMALL deed for a GREAT result !!
