Friday 04-Jan-2012. Tonight Ton attended the Sports Gala 2012 in City Theater “De Bond” in Oldenzaal (NL). For this annual event his voice was used again as voice-over for all nominee videos. Among others the sports team, sports woman and sports man of the year 2012 were announced. Awards were presented to the winners by Hennie Kuiper (former world champion cycling on the road), Ellen van Langen (Olympic Gold winner in Barcelona 1992, 800 meters running) and Jan Vennegoor of Hesselink (ex professional soccer player).
Su 02-Dec-2012. Today Danique, Sjoukje and Ton visited Sinterklaas in his national residency in Muiderslot (Muiden, NL). This 400 year old castle is where Sinterklaas stays this year with his Black Piets and all the presents he took with him on his steamboat from Spain. The castle was the stage of this years Sinterklaas movie.
We took the ferry from Ijburg (Amsterdam) to Muiden. When we arrived at the Muiderslot castle we met Sinterklaas and his black Piets and we got a half hour tour. The ferry then sailed us back to Ijburg. Of course today Danique was dressed for the occasion in a Piet suite.
Fr 30-Nov-2012: Tonight we went to the André Rieu concert in the Ziggo Dome (Amsterdam) with Henk and Yvonne. Our parents were also invited as the concert tickets were our gift for their 55th anniversary in June of this 2012. Unfortunately mom was not feeling well enough to join us, so she stayed home with dad. We had sold their tickets online on the day of the concert but we all have decided to go to the concert anyways.
P.S. Danique slept over at Femke’s house for the first time.
14/30-Aug-2012: We spent our vacation at the Adriatic Coast of Nothern Italy this year. Read all about it. Pictures albums are available via Google+ or Picasa.

Fr 03-Aug-2012 13.00: Ton went to his family doctor for an allergy test. For over 10 years he is suffering from allergy attacks. Recurring yearly, especially in the April/May time frame. All those years he has taken medication as a remedy like Claritin, Aerius and Zyrtec (all antihistamines). But the actual cause has never been diagnosed. His family doctor signed him up for today’s test to find out more about his allergy symptoms, which are sneeezing, runny nose, itchy and watery eyes and difficulty breathing. The test showed that these are more or less caused by grass or tree pollen, dust, dogs and cats. At least now we know where it comes from and a possible better treatment can be considered.
