About us
We are Indonesian-Dutch couple, married in 2002, resident of Utrecht - The Netherlands, have one spoiled dog named Milo and one "gonna be spoiled" baby Isabelle.
This webpage mainly is use to share our story and pictures to our family and friends. But of course we always welcome for new friends.
The idea of this webpage is to share our story and pictures to our family and friends.
Since Ira's Dutch language is far from perfect and Dimitri's Indonesian language is even worse, we decided to use English as the main language in this blog,
eventhough lately due to the laziness of Ira, Indonesian language seems to take over.

Long weekend in Makkum
To celebrate the 40th anniversary of Dim's parents on 2nd September, we (Dim, my brother inlaw Taco and his gf Beeuwke and I) made a surprise holiday for them. We booked a holiday house in Makkum, Friesland and spent long weekend there. We took days off since friday 2nd until monday 5th.
Makkum is a small fisherman village on the side of Ijsselmeer (hmmm... free translation would be Ijssel Lake  ). It used to be fisherman village I guess, now it is more for tourist, for watersport, sailing etc.
We stayed at a visservilla in Beach Resort Makkum. We leaved Utrecht at about 10.00 am to Lelystad where Dim's parents live. Went to photographer to take some family potret, then had some lunch at the haven in Lelystad. Back to Dim's parents house to help them with last minutes packing. They didn't know of course that we plan this long weekend. Since June we told them only to keep this weekend free from all appointments. Anyway we were in Makkum at about 05.00 pm.
 Here is the picture of the villa that we rent for the weekend. It is a very luxurius villa right on the side of the water with view to Ijsselmeer, it has 3 bedrooms, living room, dining room, complete kitchen, bathroom with whirlpool, private sauna, fireplace, terras and deck for boat.... all you can think of on holiday house
  
Most of the time we were there, we just spent it by sitting on the terras, catching up what happen in the past time, watching people passing by with their boat.... dining out to the village, looking out the shops there.
I took some pictures with my mobile phone so the result is not quite clear but still ok. Check it out here. The rest of the pictures still on Dim's mobile and on the camera of Dim's parents. I'll do update on the pictures as soon I got them.
