Rest in the Lord and be willing to wait for Him. Psalm 37:7 (NLV)
It’s difficult to believe that Hans took this picture at the Brussels Airport this morning. This evening we are back in our house in Pennsylvania. I am sure Hans and Anneke are now sleeping (they are six hours ahead of us) and will wake up in a few hours to make a long trip to […]
We love you! Grandpa and Grandma High
Today (Monday), we got to see a windmill at Bokrijk, a recreated village that represents rural life from across the region in the 1900s. I loved it! Details when we get home.
Listening to the sermon in Dilbeek, Belgium. The blond lady next to us and holding a Bible was our translator. It was a blessing to worship with believers in another country with a different language. More about our Sunday after we get home.
Today (Saturday), Hans took us to visit 2 trucking companies: Van Kerckhove G. and Van Moer Logistics. What fun to visit with Geert Van Kerckhove, his wife, and son. Then with Wim Willocx, Unit Manager, at Van Moer Logistics. We were treated like valued visitors. Our last stop was to meet Hans’ mother at a […]
We spent the day (Friday) in Brussels. There are so many narrow streets, shops, and eating places and each restaurant has tables along the street. This view is from the top floor of a building. Much more about our day after we get home
Today (Thursday), we visited the ancient city of Brugge, where we saw canals which reminded us of Venice, enjoyed a carriage ride, visited old churches, ate a warm waffle on a stick (covered in Belgian chocolate) and much more. Photos after we get home. After that, we drove to the city of Knokke, where we […]
We love you, Great Grandpa and Great Grandma High
I am so thankful to Hans, Anneke and Rebekka for making it happen by driving us from Belgium to the Netherlands. Godeliva said we have been friends since we blogged by using Xanga. Probably about 2007. We had the most amazing day. I will tell you about it after we get back to the USA.
We love you! Great Grandpa and Great Grandma High
Today we visited a wildlife park with Hans and their 3 girls, a son in law and 3 grandchildren. Hans, Katt, Sienna, Rebekka, Alma, Anneke, Hannah, Noah and Sem.
Welcomed by our friends Hans, Anneke and Rebekka. We are staying with them and were warmly welcomed into their house and lives. I will try to post one picture a day, then give details about each day after we are home.
~~~ Saturday Evening, July 29 ~~~ I have time for just a few pictures from last night, before we head to the Newark, NJ, Airport. Marlin and Nancy (my sister) at their celebration. With their four daughters (Karen, Melissa, Amy and Chelsey) and sons-in-law (Larry, Jason, Kevin and Jared) There was delicious food which was […]
~~~ Wednesday Evening, July 19 7:25 pm ~~~ I couldn’t help but notice the evening sky. It’s interesting that I am posting photos of clouds on the day before we travel through the sky to visit our friends in Belgium – with a day trip to the Netherlands. I am not taking my laptop along […]
~~~ July 19 6:30 pm ~~~ Cerwin, Josiah, Becca and Andre Since Josiah, Becca and Andre flew to the east coast (from California) to be at his sister, Hannah’s, memorial service in Maine, they decided to use their rented car to drive to Pennsylvania to visit a friend of Josiah’s who is valiantly fighting cancer. […]
~~~ Wednesday, July 19 1:00 pm ~~~ Cerwin, Bunny, Sam, Inge, Peg and Me. We love being together and enjoyed our quarterly (every-three-months) luncheon at Longhorn near Lancaster. Longhorn was Inge’s choice. We chose a variety of meals of shrimp, chicken and steak. Next time we have our lunch get-together will be in October – […]
~~~ Wednesday, July 26 ~~~ I’ll begin with a picture of a pretty butterfly I saw on the dogwood tree on our patio the other day. ~~~ The saga of my day began with my yearly checkup at my primary doctor on Monday. My yearly checkups have been routine for most of my adult life. […]
