My last MD 11 flight
Did I tell you I was going to Quito?
Yes? Well that was what I thought until they called me at 20.00 the night before I left.............
They called me to say they were sorry I had a change of schedule. I had to go to San Francisco instead. Well I wasn't sorry!
I called my friend Marja and in no time we ordered a ticket and next morning we flew to SF!!!!
It was my last MD11 flight as I will be trained for the Airbus 330 Monday. I will miss the MD11......

One moment you are packed to go to Quito, the next I had to re-pack and call Marja. She said yes in an instant and next morning we were on our way to SF for 3 days packed with site seeing meeting Robin and fun!
I am having internet problems here.
Most internet pages won't load. Visiting blogs is nearly impossible. It has been like that for weeks here. Ever since we got a new modem the signal here in my studio is too weak.
I ordered a WiFi repeater I hope that will do the job.
I have a few busy days ahead of me. But will try to visit you all again ASAP.
Have a wonderful weekend :)

A present and a present for a present
Yesterday my friend Tineke payed me a visit and she gave me this gift of Spring on a rainy day.
Isn't this cute? Like a little Spring garden
While we were having coffee Beau's (see my previous post) Mom dropped by to bring me flowers!
A gorgeous bouquet
to thank me for the birth mandala I made for the birth of her son.
I was so surprised to get a present for a present. It made me blush.
But I was happy she was so enthusiastic about the mandala. She told me Beau's room had a lot of deer in it. A deer lamp and hangers. I didn't know that. I am always happy to find out that the animal I picked for someone's mandala is the right choice ;)
Tonight I will go to Mantra singing and tomorrow we will visit Lars' school they have an open day.
He will drive home with us. Unfortunately I will leave the next day for Quito for 6 days.
Today I updated my site Added my 11 latest mandalas and found out Farah's mandala was number 100 (of the painted birth mandalas in acrylic) Together with the others I think I have created 184 by now. And still I enjoy creating them just as much as in the beginning.
Hope you all have a wonderful weekend ahead of you.
