Sinterklaas, 5th December 2009

Terry, Traer, Nya, Avie, Ed & I went travelled to Delft on December 3rd to celebrate with Marleen, Frans and family. Nya was delighted that they had a dog, Doe. (Oma, Oma, doe is cleaning the dishes!)

On the Friday we all braved the rain and cold when Marleen and Liesje took us to visit Madurodam, the miniature village in the Hague. It was worth it just to see Nya's face.
Saturday morning, Ed dropped us in Delft where we met Sanne who gave us a quick tour then we all met up at the indoor go-karting track opposite our hotel. - Marleen and I did not take part but great fun was had by all. Ed was the winner.
After a rest it was back to Frans and Marleen for the Sinterklaas suprises. And oh what surprises! Each member of the Buiter family must have spent hours disguising their presents and writing the rhymes. Pic of Terry unwrapping gift from Oom Hans. A nappy filled with who knows what but it sure was realistic! He had to fish around to find a clue as to where his present was hidden. So much fun and good company. Travelled home on Sunday after breakfast.
