Tuesday August 19, 1999 Kayaking Amsterdam Edition

(Click the picture to get full size version)

With the colleagues from Sandra's work we spend a day in Noorden. Organised by Hans, Peter, Irene, we set out on a kayaking expedition through the marshes. We stopped and had some lunch in a field (under the supervision of the cows) and then headed back to the town. The weather was a bit rainy but by the time we arrived back the sun came out and the rest of the afternoon was nice. We went back to Hans and Michel's house for a BBQ and some drinks, and finished up the evening dancing to salsa, disco and old Dutch folk songs.

Rough Seas!

"Oh, I have to put it in the water first!"

Lunch time - where's the food?

"Hi, I'd like to withdraw my application for the Pole Vaulting team."

Gee do you think it's raining?

Just smile and no one will notice

Relaxing in the sun (Yes, the sun!)

Apparently getting rained on wasn't enough for Peter and Hans
