We decided to visit “Keukenhof” today. Sunny never seen it which actually is no surprise, but I have never been there either and I’ve been living here for 36 odd years. We went early in the morning and to our surprise the parking lot only had six cars there and in the park you could wander around without seeing anybody. Did that change in the time we where there until we left, by that time it was crowdy. So one piece of advice, go early…. It allows you too make very nice pictures. And we shot plenty.

Now there is a title…… But would you be surprised that I actually did see it? I was on my way to work when I passed a wooden contraption on a barge which indeed looked similar to what we see as Noah’s Ark. It seems that one of my fellow countrymen has been quite busy building the thing and putting it on display in different cities. The last being the cause I saw it as it was transported to yet another city in the Netherlands. This little endeavor has it’s own website which can be found at http://www.arkvannoach.com. It will also tell where to look for it or if it will come in your neighbourhood. Maybe if it’s close by enough I will take a look at it. It seems the bible history relating to this particular story is depicted in the vessel itself. Might be interesting to see.

It will become a bit quieter on Office Communicator as all Chinese colleagues aren’t in the office for a week celebrating their Spring Festival. Happy new year to all of you and also other Chinese friends and not too forget, Sunny ofcourse. By the time Spring Festival ends I should be back, but from the US all the best in the year of the Rat. This puts an end on my year was born a pig about 36 years ago or so. A week from now I should be on my way back to Holland, it seems the weather will improve as it rained a lot so far so I hope to enjoy some sunshine during my stay here. In Holland two other migrations await and next to those four other ones in different locations just not sure which location comes first, that will depend on priorities not set yet.

… A very intersting look on the world of people suddenly vanished from the Earth. It was broadcasted on the History Channel in the US. I have no idea if it was broadcasted in Europe as well as I’m not there at the moment. Life after people simply looks at how all our achievements would decay as we do no longer maintain them. Takes about a thousand years for nature to erase just about everything humanity stands for. It looks like both the Great Wall of China and the Great pyramid of Giza will outlive most of the modern marvels. If you have a chance, watch the show. Something in the same line is BBC’s End Day. However this shows six possibilities on how the earth will end. According to some sources, in the US the supervulcano was left out, most likely because lava was flowing through Washington DC, however New York being flooded didn’t seem to be a problem. The part dealing with strange matter I find less likely and looked more like something from a science fiction novel, however I must admit that I’ve got no idea on it’s current developments.
