Med Trip - June 23

Today was to be a trip to Spakenberg, a cute port village about an hour or more away. We were warned that a major storm was heading our way and there were reports of trees being toppled and flooding. Even though we had mostly sunny skies, we decided to stay home. The whole day was dry and temperatures climbed to over 33 degrees. We did drive to a nearby village to pick up flowers and ready made stampot. I found my boerekoel at Albert Heins. Using Visa continued to be a problem. After an early dinner we drove to Oom K and Tante G, a distance of just over an hour. We sat outside for a short while before being rained out. Their son Geert came by for an hour or more and their daughter called to say hi. We had a good visit. Driving home, we went through a thunderstorm the whole way. At times the sky was totally lit up with horizontal flashed, followed by a wide vertical flash, that was blinding. It was good to get back, at almost 12:30AM.
