Winter Photos part 2
Of course I can not beat Bas’ long update, so mine will be somewhat shorter (but includes pictures!)
Over the last couple of days I have kept myself busy with studies, work and fun things. A quick overview: On Friday I went to the Elk’s for a drink and was taken along to the ‘wine and cheese’ party for teachers of the district. I met some interesting people and had nice conversations. On Saturday I went out for dinner at the Black Knight’s Pub with Carolin and Scott. Then Carolin and me went to see a play/music piece, called ‘a rough guide to the opera’, which was a lot of fun and I recognized some of the actors, as they are also in my choir. On our walk back to our apartment, where we decided to have glass of wine and talk things over, we saw a fox, which was really beautiful! On Sunday I had a sectional (choir) rehearsal and I went over to Pat’s for a tasty dinner.
Today I walked the same route as did on October 8th and took some pictures to show how the view has changed over a couple of weeks. Furthermore, there are some pictures of my lunch at Tim Hortons, the bus I took home and all the signs which are up alongside the roads for the city elections, which happen to be today.

Thanksgiving dinner October 12th
Hi all, just got back from a great night at Carolin and Scott’s where I went for Thanksgiving Dinner, together with two other friends of theirs, Serge and Danielle. Couldn’t sleep just yet, so thought I’d put some photos on the weblog rightaway. Enjoy!

Bas in Nederland/Bas in the Netherlands
Nederlandse versie
Even een kort berichtje om te laten weten dat Bas veilig in Nederland is aangekomen. Morgen heeft hij z’n bloedonderzoek, donderdag de longfoto en medische check bij de dokter. Hopelijk gaat het daarna allemaal snel met het visum, want ik zit hier in m’n eentje en dat is nu al best wel saai en niet leuk…. maar ik vermaak me gelukkig wel met studeren, lezen, tv kijken, e-mailen, huis schoonmaken, de was doen, boodschappen doen, koken en wat al niet meer. Straks ga ik denk ik nog even wandelen, want de zon is doorgebroken (het was vanochtend mistig) en de herfstkleuren zijn prachtig. Koud is het overigens ook: zo tegen het vriespunt aan. De eerste flurry (sneeuwbui) is voor deze week voorspeld… ik hou jullie op de hoogte!
En onder de Engelse versie vind je nog een paar foto’s van de afgelopen weken.English version
Just a short note to let you know that Bas arrived in the Netherlands safely. He will have his blood checked tomorrow and an X-ray of his lungs and a medical check with the doctor on Thursday. Hopefully, all will go quickly after that with obtaining the visa, because I am all by myself here in Yellowknife, which already is quite boring and no fun… however, I am keeping myself busy with studying, reading, watching tv, e-mailing, cleaning the apartment, doing laundry, groceries, cooking and whatever more. I think I will go for a walk in a little while, because the sun just broke through (it was foggy this morning) and the fall colours are beautiful. It is cold as well: just about freezing. The first flurry has been forecasted for this week… I’ll keep you posted!
And here are some pictures of the last couple of weeks:
