A lovely day in Amsterdam

Woke at 9am , got the crossies and made the eggs.
Did not feel like eggs today but I ate most of them anyway.
Sun is shining, not to cold so a very nice day in deed.
Cafe's have seats out and most are full.
Helped the cleaning crew today and then went out to replace the office computer screens and other bits.
Started sorting through the pile of boxes which came back to the office after finishing the new apartments. I have to get it all sorted by Saturday as when Giuseppe returns he will dump eveything in the bin.
As usual all day today every Chinese business in the area is blessed by a huge dragon and the letting off of some of the loudest fire works you will ever hear, Each one like an explosion and just think we are surrounded by Chineses businesses. THis year they seem to have added all the businesses which supply the Chineses commumity here. Our next door neighbour (fish shop) was blessed a few minutes ago. He is most popular with the Chinese as they love fish.
The clean up operation after New year was almost complete, a few rocket and the odd bottle still lying about but after the Chinese today it's covered in red paper after the firworks.
10.30
Still lovely outside, no wind and not cold. Long may it last.
Taking a early night tonight as I really need a bit of sleep.
So this is where our trails part.
