The house in Houten

A day of unpacking and putting cupboards together for Aaron and Kylie, with Walter helping of course. My tasks were shopping, cooking dinner and looking after the children. Walter took Kylie in the car, Aaron rode his bike and I took the three children the slow way - walking to the station, train (2 stops) and walking from the station to the house. The children were excellent and very much used to the trek (1 hour). A great way to get fit but very exhausting if you have to do twice a day, every day of the week, which is what Kylie has had to do for the last few months.

Kievitweide - a very quiet area.

Mia and Abi playing amongst the boxes in the lounge room. This room wll be extended another 2 1/2 metres, with lots of light wells and a glass wall. A lovely room.

which has the most fantastic view of the woods and canal

and the neighbours' gardens.

Today I think everyone was in the centre of Utrecht, together with their bicycles (thousands of them) going in all directions. Chaotic!

For dinner I cooked meatballs in gravy, fried potatoes and leeks, and boerenkool (Kale) with lardons. The leeks and kale had been shredded before they were sold which makes cooking much easier. A real Dutch meal!
