Hi everybody! Me know it still is a while before it is here, but me wanted to prepare early for Earth Hour 2016. Last year me friend Berry challenged herself and wrote an original story and poem during this hour in the dark. If you can read Dutch you can find the story here: CoegiesKeevie.blogspot.nl. The poem or song lyric is in English though. She wrote it by hand by candlelight. Me watched in awe and it inspired me to do something me self this year. But me no can do this on me own, me need all me friends to participate!
Me is one lucky monster indeed. Me have a best friend (you know her, her name is Berry) who takes me to all these nice places. And she makes me clothes. You must have seen me FC Utrecht shirt she made me over 12 years ago, all by hand. That was the first of a nice wardrobe me like to share with you. The last post about me nice wardrobe can be found here: Aloha from Cookie.
Me made a nice rhyme right. Well it is because me had a lot of fun in the sun at the Dolfinarium (dolphinarium) here in the Netherlands. Me like to visit and have blogged about it a lot over the years. Berry like to take me because she likes to share the experience with me. And… she uses me as bait. Me no mind though. Because when me sits near the glass at the underwater panorama me always get extra close to the dolphins and walruses. And they are so lovely! Me wish me could put on me wetsuit and swim with them.
You all know me loves a good party right. Because when there is party, me can boogie and eat delicious snacks. Well, me friend Berry and her family likes to party too. Berry hosts Halloween once a year and we celebrate the birthday of Sinterklaas every 5 December. And ofcourse me will not forget about Christmas! Tomorrow is New Year’s Eve. O boy O boy, that will be fun too. Staying up late! Right now, me will post some pictures of Halloween, Pakjesavond and Christmas. Me had a blast. Until next time!
Me is back with another fun ‘Have me told about…?’ blog. Yes yes, me have to talk about me last visit at Apenheul of the season. Yes me went there to visit a baby orang-utan before Christmas, but me means the regular season. You must know that this Monkey and Apes zoo closes after Fall break. Most animals retreat to their warm indoor habitats during the colder autumn and winter days. The people of Apenheul uses the wintertime to rebuild or remodel the habitats so the animals have more or new things to climb in and play with. So… Berry and me wanted to say goodbye to the apes and monkeys of the zoo and went to Apenheul on October 30th. Almost at the end of Fall break.
You know me love art right? Me love to draw and color in me coloring books. But me also love to visit a museum or two. With me friend Berry me have been to the Van Gogh Museum three times last year. But the last time, me loved it the best. That was already back in September (told ya me is a bit behind on me blogging). So we went to the Van Gogh Museum in Amsterdam for this special exhibit of art made by Vincent van Gogh and Edvard Munch!
Even me have to think about this one digging deep in me memory. It has been a while since me visited Blijdorp in Rotterdam last September. We went there just to relax after a Summer full of work. Well… Berry needed that more than me though. But me no did care, me love to go to a zoo. The Rotterdam Zoo of Blijdorp is a very, very big zoo with loads of gorgeous animals and habitats. Me took a picture with a penguin and saw this amazing Okapi! It happened on September 25th 2015. Me is not going to write much about it, just watch the pictures! Me will be back with more ‘Have me told about…’s after Christmas.
