traveling ... near by and far away

Today I went to Rotterdam, 
by boat as usual.
My hairdresser (a very good one) has his shop there.
At our stop I met four lovely ladies :
from Taiwan !
They had visited the windmills at Kinderdijk on their bikes
and went back to Rotterdam by boat
and then to Delft, to their hotel.
We had a nice chat in English,
one of the ladies (Lin Hsiu Chen or Joyce) was a high school teacher 
;-)
I do hope Joyce and her friends have 
during the rest of their stay in Holland
a bit more sunshine, than all the rain we had today !

Yesterday I did finish the belt 
that went with the little "Judit" bag.
So when it was dry late this afternoon
I could take some pictures.

The making of the two ends didn't go smoothly :
I forgot to thread the cord through the top of the bag first.
Luckily I noticed it after only the first small square,
so I could pull it through.
(uhhhhm : almost did it again with the second end,
a donkey ... etc. )

Back (and the inside of the belt)

Bag, now with a closure

Me and the bag

  6. If I go away as a tourist and meet a local to chat to it makes my day very special. I know the ladies you met will have felt the same...
