One thing we'll probably never get used to seeing are the "open" urinals they put out when there are going to be crowds. I just noticed there is a symbol for "men" on it.......was that necessary?!?!? LOL!

Saturday evening there was a Flower Parade that went through Haarlem. It started in the morning in Noordwijk, which is about 40 kilometers away and arrived in Haarlem around 2100hrs. The parade went down the Houtplein and into the Grote Markt where they parked the floats there and along the Spaarne River. The parade:
The floats remained there till approximately 1700hrs Sunday. Sunday morning we got up early (to beat the crowds!) to go take a closer look at them...they are so beautiful!

This past weekend we had beautiful weather! The sky was clear and it the temperature was around 50 degrees Fahrenheit! Toasty!!!
Saturday, Andrew and I went to Intratuin (garden store) to buy some flowers to fill all the pots and make some new garden areas. We saw that they had sod, so we decided to buy some to try to get a nice lawn going in the backyard.
Unfortunately we hadn't measured the yard before going to Intratuin. What we originally thought we'd do was till the soil and put grass seed down...not knowing they would be selling sod! Soooo, we will go back next week to get more sod to finish the yard!

For the past couple of weeks (since we got back from our trip to France) I've been sick with a terrible cough. For a week I had to sleep in the guest room because every time I would lie down I would start coughing. Nothing was helping......Finally last night I was able to sleep all night!
