Queen's Day celebrations
We had a great time - we went to a square where there was a street party and rocked out.
The next day there was a concert in Museumplein, so we headed down there.
I've got my hangover glasses on...

Muiderslot Castle and Volendam village
Look, it even has a moat!
Here's me outside the front.
It was pretty cool to stand inside something which has been standing since 1200 and something. (Although its recently refurbished and has been added onto about a million times since it was first built).
The only bad thing was the large school group of very annoying dutch children.
The funniest part - we took the guided audio tour (in English of course). The English of this was pretty bad - sometimes there were lots of words but they didn't make much sense! Clearly the person who wrote the script seemed obsessed with the ceilings (which in all honestly looked the same as each other). It was classic!
After the castle we headed out to Volendam - this adorable little dutch village on the coast of the Zuidersee. There are heaps of little souvenir shops and so we shopped up a storm - gifts as well as stuff for us. It was great! I love souvenir shops and so I was like a kid at christmas, darting in and out of the stores while Claire begged me to stop for lunch!

He already knows about where food goes - he wants whatever Yvonne's having!

Farewell BBQ at the boys' house
Here's Cherilyn and I later on in the evening...
A bunch of us girls got Kyryll to take us for a ride on his scooter - very fun but very scary!
