Saturday, June 27


We had to get out of bed a little sooner than we would have liked because today Duco was playing his last game of the season and we wanted to watch. Liesbeth picked us up at 9:15 and after calling a friend to tell her where the field was in Amersfoort, we were off. We arrived about 10 minutes before the game was to start. Actually, Duco was supposed to be there for warm-ups about an hour before. But, that would have meant we would have had to watch that. This timing was better.

We took a friend of Duco's (Gesse) with us whose English was very good. He watches American TV and Utube and last year travelled to Boston, Chicago, and New York with his family for a month. That must have helped. 



Duco at bat

Duco's team started with a 3 run lead but gave that up later. The kids have improved since last year.


The rest of the day was for resting. We walked downtown to the Proef for lunch and ate what we always eat there: its called "the Proef and its a roast beef sandwich on really good crispy non-gluten bread. It used to be served on white bread, but this new stuff is really good. You'd swear it was the real stuff. The picture is of Linda's fresh mint tea with honey and my espresso behind. Artsy, huh?

The rest of the day was for chilling.
