Parabens! Gefeliciteerd! Congratulations!

Today is a manifold Good Friday: three generations Matos celebrate their birthdays, all born on the 6th April. Many congratulations to Ivone ("seeing Sarah"), and many congratulations to Maria da Luz - both young forever and sharing their birthday with their mother and grandmother! Let the champagne flow on this celebrate day ...

Counting sheep

Camila went with Freek on a 20 km hike in Friesland (Frisia - a northern province in The Netherlands). And on their way back they missed train and got lost in Workum (4,000 inhabitants ...). Some pictures (nice weather and counting sheep):

Cheers, Hans!

Wonderful day: Hans is "up and running"! Well... not quite yet, but he is back to work and will be better soon.
Let's keep the spirits up, cheers voor Hans!

Back in town

2012, March 8th. It's Holi, the festival of colours!
Last year we had the girls with us, it was "spring breack" in the USA. They celebrated it with Kunal and his friends, Melissa had more prawns than she could take, and it was impossible to recover Camila's clothes.
This year I decided to fly back 'home' earlier and alone, (leaving the others celebrating Holi and whatever else they might wish), after my well savoured break in Goa. Enough diversion for now!...



Just in time! Hans picked me up moving a litle funny. The next day he was confined to bed, giving his back the necessary rest after a visit to his orthopedist!!! Intuition?...
Big relief: I am not the cause of this disconfort!... ;) And yes, Hans has been "a good boy!", as the doc advised on a personal note. The nurse is pleased, sir!



 

When may we welcome you?

Empty beaches, clear water, waiting for you people!





Entrance to the Spa of course, what else?!
Shiva and Sita did enjoy God's gift of life!
"Chest ok" remember, girls? ;)

I wish I could send you the fragrance of the pecan tree (caju) in a botle!...

Time to leave and get ready for the party!... Want to join?...

Enjoying Goa

Cola beach, hidden treasure: the lagoon, the see and... me!

One of the many churches built by the portuguese, still proudly standing all over Goa!

Great opportunity folks: lovely place at the riverside by the see, believe me! "Cola beach" just 5 km away... In your company it would have been paradise!

Magestic "Forte do Cabo da Rama", also built by the portuguese. See that beach in the distance? I can take you there!...
