And now we go roaming

Tonight is the last night in the marina Warten, tomorrow we finally leave and will have no fixed abode (our Amsterdam address apart). Before that someone comes to look at the sunroof because we want to add an extra piece and then we're off.

Last weekend we were in Amsterdam where we had several nice appointments. One of them the semifinals of Emergenza, a large (international) competition for pop bands; Mondegreen
(Steven's band) took part. They were very good and will go on to the finals, which means that they play May 22nd in the Melkweg in Amsterdam.
We have also emptied the storage we had had and that means that for the first time in 3 years, starting from Naarden, we have no more external storage.
We learned to do away and say goodbye to things (especially Rebecca had a problem with this) and it is liberating. While we enjoyed staying in Amsterdam, Panache stayed in a dog kennel in Warten, it was the first time but he found it clearly fun. There were all Spanish water dogs, and he fitted in perfectly.Together with the owner of the kennel, we shaved all his hair so he now looks more like a Dalmatian than a Lagotto. His curls will grow back soon, or so we hope.
We intended to leave Wednesday but Michel was invited, by Malka, to go to Jeff Dunham so he went back to Amsterdam because he did not want miss that opportunity. For those who do not know who Jeff Dunham is, see you-tube. He is a stand-up comedian and ventriloquist, worth the effort to look. Will we have access to internet from now and therefore the means to blog? We don't know but we'll see, I'll report it here.
