Another Year in Europe

Since I'm staying here for another year I thought I'd try to be ambitious and keep everyone up to date on what I'm doing. Maybe you all won't forget me then!

Tulips and more!

Okay, a whole new set of pictures!  I'm not going to write much this time, but here are my captions:



This is the view of the park behind our apartment from the balcony.  I have more apartment pics to put up, but they need some editing and I haven't had time.  Soon!

This is a picture of Dave and me at the Imperial baths in Trier.  Kyle took the pic while we were travelling around Germany on our manic 24 hour tour.

And another wonderful moment from the quick and dirty romp through 5 countries in two days.  The Apenheul is a great park in the eastern Netherlands where monkeys roam free among the visitors!  One climbed on Kyle's arm and was so cute I took a picture.  Of course the monkey chose that moment to become violently ill...

All flower pictures are from the Keukenhof - the Dutch flower garden.  Its absolutely enormous, but its only open for a few weeks each year while all the bulb flowers are in bloom (aside from indoor flower shows and such).  I tried to get some different kinds of shots with my digital camera and some of them came out great!

Oops, one more from Trier.  This is inside the imperial baths.  We didn't actually go in - we were rather pressed for time, but the view through the windows was great!

More tulips...  Looks like something rather dangerous though...
