Show Jumping and Dressage Event

Pieter & I headed to an international three day equine event in Eindhoven on friday, I spent most of the day drooling at stunning horses and swearing in oath to myself that i will be back into my riding in the next ten years. So quote me now haha!

Queens Day!

Well after a late evening out on Queens night in Eindhoven showcasing some very famous DJs we took off the next day to Amsterdam for the heart of the celebrations to check out what all the fuss was about.

This trip to one of Hollands biggest theme parks was triggered by a very sudden occurance to return home, however things have simmered down and i am remaining on this side of the globe once again. We didnt take alot of photos for we were simply enjoying the time there together but it was an exordinary day! It was the first day the park was back open after the winter season and being a friday it was totally dead. possibly 100 poeple in the whole park. This However was incredibly awesome!  you could almost always swap seats and stay on the ride! I think in total we went on a roller coaster at least 18 times along with all the othe Wicked rides on top of that ! there was a Magic Castle that you sat in and you or the room rotated that was buzzy. Four mammoth roller coasters, and smaller ones including “The wild wild west” which at a glance looked rather mundain and lacking in gravitational thrills that involved going upside down. However it turned out to be the most hilarious rides and we went on it 5 times. Its 5 sets of pin head turns at tree top level made a MEAN game of corners and seriously gave you the expectation of riding straight off the tracks and plumeting tot he ground below. This was then followed by a series of small humps/bumps which were so abrupt and stomach lurching -quickly followed by another sweeping last minute pin head rench to the right. Highly entertaining and addictive despite the ride actually putting my back out of place on the first round! There were some crazy spinning, twirling, entwining typical theme park rides that were smaller and stand alone but were very impressive and usually the ones that made you feel sick and dizzle afterwards. Then there was a huge tower of terror like thing. That gave a quick thrill, free falling from about 150m with the straping in process taking longer than the actual ride. Took it 4 times anyways  There was a skydive structure which cost but there was all th usuals, dodgem cars, log flume, ferris wheel, merry-go-round, go carts blah blah blah. yeah these photos dont do it alot of justice Awesome day though.

Hey people

Pieter and I had an awesome day road triping to the west of the Netherlands today to visit the province of Zeeland, and yes it is the area that New Zealand was named after. Its a delta area of islands and man made islands aswell as dams to stop the sea from flooding Holland. It was rather obvious from the top of the man made hils/storm walls that the houses were significantly lower than the sea, pretty interesting sight really! You will also be glad to know we didnt leave the house with out a kite and most importantly a frisbee!

There will be more of a thorough and wholistic update of the things ive been up to in the past month after my birthday and christmas but before i fly out. But just spent a night and a few days up north camping and hanging out with mum. Good fun. getting a little taste of summer before i go …

Yay! im getting excited!!!
