The Adventures of Lorie and Brian Groth

We had a cold but dry hike around the dunes near the North Sea today. The deer were out in full and allowed us to get pretty close this time.

In Amsterdam, the city sets up signs on street corners or people to leave their Christmas trees. Busby likes to pee on all I them.

Sinterklaas is a Dutch thing; basically a person symbolising a holiday on Dec 5&6 that goes by the same name. Before that holiday starts, the canals get some light artwork as part of the Amsterdam Light Festival. At the same time, some Christmas lights start going up, although I’ve been told that most Dutch people won’t put up a Christmas tree or decorations until after the Sinterklaas day of December 6.

So, Piper and I have captured a variety of lights in Amsterdam seen in early December.

This is the hike we’re we should run across buffaloes, but we still haven’t seen any.

I have captured a 3D image of our garden and you can move it around to see it from all angles. Go to this link, then click and hold the left mouse button to move the image around.

There is an off leash dog area in the sand dunes at the south end of Zandvoort called Duinlandschap Zandvoort. This was our first time there and the dogs loved it.

I assume this bike owner will reconsider parking on this corner with the front tire in the street.

It’s been a while since they dogs have had their photos shares, so…
