As a gift for our wedding my sister arranged a ‘special’ weekend away for or Adrienne and me. Special was indeed the right word. We were told to go to Dearsum in Friesland this Friday where we were given a tractor and an authentic old fashioned trailer. After one training round we were found qualified to take our new home anywhere we would like. We set out for Sandfirden to find a nice camping along the water. After about a one hour drive through the country side and small villages we arrived safe and sound. We found a great camp spot and thought we could just easily maneuver the trailer backwards into that cosy space. But it turns out that driving backwards with such a huge trailer isn’t all that simple. After one hour of trying (we didn’t give up that easily) it turned out that it was much easier to drive it forwards into position…
We uncoupled the trailer and spent the next two days scouting the surroundings on the tractor. The earplugs my sister gave us came in really handy for the long drives.

We had great fun and we would really like to thank everybody that was involved in giving us this great gift!

It has been a long time since I posted a message on my blog. I have been very busy with my new job at Fraunhofer MEVIS within the Radboud University Hospital in Nijmegen. On top of that of course came the wedding preparation stress. All for a good cause, because it was an unforgettable day last Thursday. I will soon post a longer story with more pictures, but you can have a look at the pictures Elena Maier, our professional photographer, has taken.

I am very happy with the results.
