When Doug and I were planninghis trip, the only thing that he was clear about was that he wanted to see Rotterdam.  I asked him why, and he started singing the beautiful south song about this could be Rotterdam or anywhere, so I wil avoid further speculation about baby bro's motives. …

We met with Laura in Amsterdam and took a bus and a train to Rotterdam. The weather wasn't bad, quite windy though but at least it didn't rain. We were going to Finland's Seaman church in Rotterdam for a BBQ party in the evening but before that we wanted to see the city. We didn't have any plans, j…

It was 20 years ago since I had been in a zoo - Manila zoo, that is. I always like to see a big Aquarium and being at Diergaarde Blijdorp made that wish come true.

There was rain in the air this day, so we decided not to go far from home - because of the rain we wanted to go the movies. When we got to Rotterdam we walked to Pathé Schouwburgplein to go get tickets for the movie. After that we went to the Oude Haven in Rotterdam, we had to walk through …

My pets over the years.  I had many more, but don't have pictures of all of them. Over the years me and my family had 9 guinea-pigs, 4 parakeets, 1 dog, a lot of fish and 1 rabbit.
