Finally home

The plane home yesterday left at 4pm from Weeze in Germany. The Netherlands is such a small country and when you're situated almost in the middle, you'll have a little over an hour traveltime to each border or major city, thus it doesn'n matter which airport you choose. And then you can fly cheap!

We left the house at 1pm already since we wanted to check in well in time to get some good seats. But even though we were among the first to get onboard, the people with priority boarding already took the best seats (the ones by the emergency exit, with all the goodie legspace), so my poor, tall boyfriend had to squeeze in with his legs and knees in the tight space that ryan air so generously provides (sarcasm). Maybe cheap isn't so good after all hehe? Toines mother cried a little when we left but they will be visisting us in october so she comforted herself with that fact.

The landing got a little turbulent since we passed some thunderclouds during the descent. I really wish i had a camera at that point, i could've taken some really cool pictures inside the cloud. The rest of the way went very smooth, the bus filled up quick and we left on schedual. The lady driver also knew her traffic information, cause we took a little detour, racing past the kilometers of still traffic on the highway. We arrive at the central station about 5 minutes before the train home is about to leave, perfect timing once again!

Back home in the apartment everything was perfectly cleaned. My youngest sister and her boyfriend really did a good job so we rewarded them with loads of presents. My parents got over here as well and got their presents too, not as much as my little sister got though.

And after only one night of sleep, Toine has to get up early and head for work. And I'm sitting here by myself trying to pass the time...i guess I'll have some breakfast now.
