While
the Netherlands are completely under the spell of the newborn heir to
the thrown, princess Catherina-Amalia, JG and Tallotter are celebrating
their 12th anniversary (officially the 2nd) in what has recently been
chosen to be the best restaurant of the Netherlands of 2004: restaurant
Parkheuvel (
)
in Rotterdam. Excellent food in a professional yuppy-style environment.

As the holidays season is nearing, it's time to send best wishes to all the people that are dear to us. Since 1992 we have a tradition of designing our own special Christmascard. One time in the shape of a weekly diary with tips, poems and essays; one time as a small booklet with an annual report. As this year's theme we've chosen the light that relieves and enlightens, with on the inside our latest Greek acquisition inciting people to play with the light.

I
can still vividly remember when I saw Yann Arthus-Bertrand's work for
the very first time. When Mario in Montreal showed me the expensive
picturebook he'd gotten for his birthday. An amazing book with stunning
aerial photographs of Mother Earth. The beauty, the colors, the details...
Today by accident I ran into an open-air exhibition of his work in front
of the Amsterdam Town Hall. It's a giant indictment of the destruction
of our globe and the people's loss of humanity. (See also: .)

Dutch landscape with windmill and sheep. Allthough completely man made, is hasn't changed in a 400 years. But how long will this green heart of Holland be able to resist the advancing urbanisation, these ugly industrial buildings, flats, shopping malls and highways?

Enjoying the day after. After a giant 10 course dinner JG made for the family. Home alone now, cuddling the furry ones, reading a bit, enjoying the radio playing oldtime hit records, lazingly staring at the lights... 2004: there's still so much to be grateful for!
