Marije didnt brought her usual camera but another one.
So Here are the pictures

As you can see mummy I had a really great time!!!

Hi Mum
Every morning I awake with very very loud noise here at Marije her home.I hate it cause I couldnt sleep !
I look out of the window and I see what the cause is.
They building houses across the street,and the are building at the moment.The view is terrible.Take a look the only thing you see is a hoisting crane and other things



But this afternoon I heard better noises.Cause Iggy-Korn and Ambrosius was giving a concert.Iggy played the guitar and Ambrosius was singing.It was really great to hear



After the concert I gived Iggy a flower as a thank you



Bye Bye
Clem
