Jumping in Scheveningen

Last weekend, before starting the trip around the world! I was J.'s +1 for a wedding in Breda, south of the Netherlands. I hadn't been back in this country since 2007 when I had been working in and out of Amsterdam for 3 months during a long and rainy Dutch winter.

I’m happy to be back here, and what’s more, to be here for a non-work related activity :). The wedding on Saturday in Breda was much fun. Although I was one of the very few non-Dutch onboard, I never felt excluded as everybody spoke great English. Even the civil servant spoke a few words of English for the non-Dutch!

On Sunday, we had a few hours to kill before getting back to the airport. We went back to Den Haag (The Hague) to spend some time on the beach under the sun. And of course, to jump!

We spent some time in one of those lounge bars along the beach where they have proper beds to chill the heck out of. The time was so great that I conveniently decided to forget my camera there. I only realized when back in Schiphol Airport, too late to go back.

Fortunately, J. is a very resourceful, powerful, and wonderful gal and got the camera back in less than 24 hours! Merci, merci, merci J.!!!
