It's winter in the Netherlands. Temperatures are well below zero at night and have been for a couple of weeks now. This means all lakes, rivers and canals are frozen and the whole of Holland is going crazy with ice skating. Dylan and I went to the Kralingse Bos to walk on the ice and play in the snow on the big lake. The last time the lake was completely frozen is about 12 years ago... so this is very special!
Ofcourse we had to make snow balls
and we were looking at the skaters going past
this last photo is from the 2 windmills next to the lake, can't get more dutch then this!
I thought I'd add a photo from a couple of months ago (16/08/08) just to show the difference!

Mooie foto's. Ik kan ze niet allemaal zien (de pagina laadt niet goed, ik kijk morgen nog wel een keer), maar de foto's die ik zie zijn erg leuk.
Ik heb vandaag ook -sinds 12 jaar- weer geschaatst op de Waal. Geweldig hoor, ik durfde eerst niet, maar het was echt leuk. Zooo hollands.
Toch wel leuk Nederland!

Wow. That sure does look cold.
