Review 2020
January - overnight stay in Antwerp to celebrate our 28th wedding anniversary
February - two days in Paris to celebrate our 'romance' since the 15th of February 1986
March - while we’re quarantined, we started a creative #stayhome challenge and moved from our cozy attic bedroom to Minne's old bedroom
April - blessed with a garden and being able to go outside for the weather has been amazing for weeks. Nature helps us through this uncertain time
May - midweek city break in Hamburg to celebrate Henk's anniversary
June - daily breakfasts, lunches and dinners in the backyard, we cooked a lot and tried to make a festivity of every meal
July - roadtrip Portugal - when we booked our summer holiday in 2019, we didn't have a clue, Portugal would be the only safe destination in Europe by then
August - one of the longest heatwaves ever, we often went to the beach very early, to avoid the crowds
September - we rebooked our flight tickets to New York and enjoyed a quiet week in Faro to the fullest. We took a boat to another deserted beach in Ria Formosa every day
October - two days in Maastricht, Paris of The Netherlands
November - dinners with friends and family at our kitchen table
December - lots of cocooning, crocheting, creativity and christmas with the family
2020 was the most bizarre year we've ever had, without a doubt!
Even though it was a year with the handbrake on, we tried to get the best out of it in a safe way.
Both our children got the keys to their first homes in March. We are happy they are living in Dordrecht and we can visit eachother easily.
I eagerly look forward to a new year, with good hope for better times. A 'happy new year' is not even necessary, a normal new year would be fine!
Thank you dear followers, lots of love and just hold on, everything will be okay one day...
The € 7.40 cappuccino, served at très chic Café de Flore, is 2020 in a nutshell...
