Last update August 05 2010.

We're still in the Netherlands and will be for a while so Jolanda decided not to write any Dutch journals until we're on the move again.
But we will update and publish this news page once every two or three months, or more as we did before if and when something of importance happens again.

We find Maasbommel a good place to return to. Buying this property more and more turns out to have been a good decision indeed. We enjoy being here this summer season again. Having friends come over to BBQ with us while fixing, refurnishing and redecorating the house a bit. The place is as new again and we keep space available for family, friends and acquintances. If you want to come over, give a mail and we'll pick you up if needed.
And we did travel a bit by the way, to Berlin last june for a meeting. Thus making it part business and lots of good times, meeting with a friend, sightseeing and enjoying this great city. For some great pictures of Berlin (and a few of Maasbommel) click the thumbnails below.

Meanwhile the house in Bonaire is available for rent, beautifully located in the Dutch Caribbean, on the island of Bonaire. If you or your famlily or friends are interested in sun, sea, beach, scuba-diving, kayaking, snorkelling, surfing, sailing, you name any watersports and don't like too big a crowd, just send us an e-mail or have a look at a special site (Rob built that one for us) over here. Rob and Ans, our incredibly social neighbours here shall welcome you in our house. You can read more about them and our 'Dushi Bonaire' over here.

If you're interested in sailing the BAHAMAS, BERMUDA or MALDIVES, have a look at our books at SAILADVENTURES where our books are available online.
You can always mail us for more info on these cruising grounds or cruising in general, we'll gladly help you out.

We still don't have an exact plan, but we probably won't go to the boat this summer.
