LJ-break

Two more nights (well one and a half, considering it's gone 2am already) adn I'll have another break from LJ. After a month of posting several times a day, it might be difficult. I tried catching up with my book reports, yet as it is holiday time, I read a lot more as well. I was 10 books behind, now only 5, so I've done well. After I'm back I'll probably be back on 10 again.

Wednesday I will go to Cuba for a bit of travelling. Just me and my backpack, just like the old days. A bit over 2 weeks and as soon as I'm back, work is on again. Well actually I will be somewhere over the Atlantic as work starts, but I'm sure they'll manage without me the first day ;-)

I had so many things planned this month, yet I've done very few of them. I managed to catch up with sleep (probably overdone that one a bit). I did read a lot. I thoroughly enjoyed following the Tour de France. By following I mean spending about 8 hours a day in front of the television, listening to the radio, read the newspapers, check the internet. One of the best Tours in years, though I have to admit I always enjoy it, to me the Tour is similar to holiday.

Mid august I'll be back, I don't think I'll have any opportunity to check while in Cuba. Never mind, I'll be enjoying myself I'm sure.

Hey you! Have a great time, and if possible swim over to the dominican rebublic while your in the area .. it's beautiful. You just may be in Europe while I'm there if you are leaving this early, but maybe not. I'll be there the 8th-18th.. but that doesn't mean I'll be anywhere near you, but if i am let me know!

I love the Dominican Republic. I worked there for nearly a year (a decade ago) and been back a few times to visit old friends. My desire to visit Cuba goes from way back then, finally I get to go there.

I'll be back in europe in the 18th, so the only chance we'll bump into each other might be at the airport, if you'll fly back from Amsterdam at least.

Enjoy the old world!

Cuba..

Now there is someplace I'd like to go. My parents were there before my brother and I were born and they still talk about it. Have fun!
