Denhaag and museums

I have a museum card (In NL, buying museum card (60e) is like buying a year museum subscription that you could go to most of the Netherlands museums, which generally cost from 10 to 25e/museum. I just bought it just before covid-19 started and could go to one/two museums only. So before its expired, and with 2 friends invitation for museums, on the Saturday end of July, we went to Denhaag for a museum trip.

I had visited these museums several years ago already, still this time I was excited. We aimed for Maurithuis and Mesdag, but on the website the ticket for Maurithuis was already sold out.

This picture is a piece of an amazing panorama painting of Mesdag in Mesdag museum. It felt like you are visiting a real beach because of its giant size >100x10 circular

Coming back to Maurithuis around 4.30pm and we got jackpot, theres available space, so jumped right in. I've been there before but this time felt still almost new. We had so much fun taking mimicking pictures infront of the " girl with pearl earring" a master piece, also in front of the "goldfinch" which i read the book a while ago.

A zoo experience

Recently, I got interested in Coral reefs after reading a report on how coral reefs affects the biodiveristy . I read that the Burgers's zoo in Arnhem has successfully bred tropical coral reefs , so we have to visit it. We arrived a little bit late so we had only 3h before it closed (at 5pm) to explore. It was a cold winter day, yet the sun was shining, which made it nicer to see the zoo view. The penguins welcomed us right after the entrance, they look so funny and chill. And it smelled very fishy - from the fishes that they ate. As we thought we didn't have enough time, so we head straight direction of the Ocean's part. We however got attracted by another experience - the tropical forest. Entering it was warm, and i felt immediately like I'm in Vietnam. They managed to mimic the warm humid tropical climate in such a nice cold country. Now I've already think my 29e zoo ticket worth its price :). I heard a lot of births chirping with different sounds and tone...

Today is quite a sunny day. After the recent cloudy, foggy and cold days, getting some nice sun is a treasure. After lunch, we decided to go for a walk around the house and to run some errands. I left Nam outside just at lunch time so he was still around at the front door when we got out. Should he be in our out? I'm always more cautious and want him to be inside while we are not home. But he, probably just like us, missing the sun, didn't get in the house. We said, well, let's go, he will be fine. But...Nam started following us. He's like 2 or 3 meters behind us, not so close, but not so far. He was actually running quite happily. Nam- close to home, more confident, and at the big road more careful It's one block from my house, and Nam was still following. He's a bit careful, from time to time looked around and looked back, maybe to check where he was. He actually looked a bit like detective dog following us. I was still scared, asked J. if he could catch Nam...

Norway 3: Kayaking, glacier hiking and us

It felt like a movie when I woke up in the morning and opening the cabin’s door. In front of me was a large and beautiful lake, next to it was a huge and wide mountain. Some early sunlight got through the water just created a perfect scene. We had a typical roadtrip’s breakfast with slides bread, ham & cheese on a picnic table chair on the grass in-between the cabin and lake but it felt like eating wonderful food because of the view. “Meal with a view” is a common phase we used in our trip. Just stopped by somewhere, took the sandwich out, and you’ve got an amazing view to accompany your meal. Back to our breakfast, while we were silently admiring the nature, an active lady was kayaking on the lake. The view of her, the water tail created by the kayaking and the kayaking itself made a perfect morning picture. This is the first time I stayed in a cabin so its completely a new experience. Later on the trip we stayed over 3 more cabins and they were also different. But I would describ...
