Today we took the streetcar into the city of Den Haag where we saw the very famous painting by Vermeer, The Girl with the Pearl Earring. It was housed in a beautiful gallery full of Dutch art. It was fascinating to walk through and experience Holland in this way. We also went to an amazing exhibit that was a panorama of the big beach here - unbelievable! I love art-full days!

I finally caught up with the first episode of Outlander. Wow. I knew I was going to like it, but I didn't realized how much I was going to LOVE it. I haven't been this taken by a series for a long time. Really great to have a new show with a strong female protagonist. I can't wait to watch episode 2. This is one series I can see us all liking.

Reg and I picked up some painting supplies in our hood but also walked over to our old/new community centre which went through a major facelift during the olympics. To join the centre cost just $4! There's a swimming pool, lots of drop-in classes, regular classes a gym… There is even a drop by art afternoon regularly which I can't wait to go to. Now if only our stuff would arrive so we can actually move into our new hood!

That is so awesome that you have a community centre with so many classes to take Suzie! I know that is going to be a real treat and I can't wait to hear all about them. Woohoo for amenities!
Shannon, just half an hour to go here to watch the third episode! I wish I had seen the first but I loved the second which I know you are going to enjoy. I think you're right, we will all like it.
Wow, that's a whole lot of goodness!
It's such a treat when you discover a show you really love, Shannon! That's awesome.
And Suzie, WOW! That really an amazing resource. I have been feeling so happy watching all of the treasures around you. I truly think that you're back home!
