Family day at drouwerzand

last sunday the 20th of september we had this family day reunion at drouwerzand a fun fair and you just pay 11 euro's and everything is for free the rides and the food and drinks are free so thats really great. first we had some coffee all together and talked. the two little kids franka and damian already left to the rides so we did not see them that much. when i finished my coffee i went in the first ride it was a butterfly carousel that went up and did not go that fast so it was nice than i went for a second time with my mom. later she went in a other ride and i went in this pirate ship by myself and i was a little nervous but when the ride was finished i loved it more than that carousel butterfly thing so i went like more than 10 times and i just loved it. i eat like 6 icecream and 3 french fries and one kroket and a lot of limonade as well. also i went with franka and damian in a sort of swing that looks like a pirate ship but turned around everytime. with franka i went in the pirate ship and rollercoaster so it was a fun day. the adults had a good time too so hopefully we will be going to drouwerzand more :-)

my summer vacation in Tenerife

well at the moment i am already in tenerife for three weeks and i stay for another three weeks together with my mom. the first weeks we went very often to the beach and swimming in the ocean. right now since two weeks our friends are at the hotel so we now stay more often at the hotel near the swimmingpool. some days ago we walked the masca kloof and it was really a good walk but hard. we had to climb down over rocks small and very big ones and when we were at the end we could have a swim in the ocean till the speedboat picked us up. it was really fun. next week we probably do another boat trip, a walking trip and hopefully we will take the bus to the highest mountain of the iland called the teide. well more to write later. we also did one boattrip on the catamaran called one 4 u and we saw the wales and dolphins and its was sooo fun. the dolphins made a little show they jumped all together. the last week we went to the siam park its a water park with a lots of slides and one wave swimming pool as well. we went a lot to La Karina this year. its a restaurant nearby our hotel sol tenerife and they had some times in the week a country and line dance so you could dance too if you wanted and it was a lot of fun. we went walking a lot and ofcourse went to the beach too a lot. the 6 weeks in tenerife went too fast.

mariken run 2009

this morning i woke up at 07:25 and got myself ready and put on my running clothes. when i looked out of the window i saw that it was raining outside but it was not cold. i eat some breakfast and went outside with my dog than i left to my mom's place to see if she was ready and she was ready too so we went by car to the train station where we met more ladies of our running team. they all went to nijmegen for the marikenrun cause this run is only for women :-) so no men are allowed to run this race :-) the way to nijmegen was fun in the train and in no time we were in nijmegen where we had to take this small train to another station in nijmegen it was just one station further so we went out of the train and walked to the place the start would be.First we picked up our t-shirts and we bought this pink cap as well. the 5km started at 13:00 and everyone had their own color so they knew in which box they had to wait for the start. before we had this warming up when we were in our boxes waiting so that was fun a lot of people doing warming up together. it was still a little chilly and very cloudy but when we started the sun came through and it started to get a litter warmer so that was good. the run went fine. my mom also tried to run she has some problems with her knee but really wanted to run so badly but she did very good on it she had the time on the 5km of 34:00 and i had this time of 33:00 on the 5km. the 10km started at 14:00 so when we were back we watched the 10km coming over the finish. than we left back home. it was a fun day so up to next year marikenrun :-)
