without bikes (or a car) everything takes soooo much time... i really do miss my bike. but i am afraid to bike here. maybe in the neighbourhood would be fine, but to work, no way, far too crowded and the cars so big and so little space on the bad road with all its holes.. but it means we really walk a huge amount. weekends are far more busy and tiring than work, at the moment. today for example we first walked to Market Basket (favorite supermarket), in total that takes like an hour. then we walked to Porter square in Cambridge (i like that area a lot, nice shops etc), then we walked to the house of a colleague of tim, who celebrated getting her PhD (that was nice), and then we had to walk back home again. i think at least 2 hours of walking today, and yesterday no less. worst is, usually we walk with so much stuff we buy here and there and everywhere.... :)Sunday, May 16, 2010

ah, and ofcourse not to forget all the yard sales in the neighbourhood. it seems every weekend somewhere people are selling stuff they dont want anymore. yesterday i bought 2 very nice mugs for only 1 dollar! (with a drawing on it from the Snowman.. a cartoon i used to watch around christmas: http://www.classickidstv.co.uk/wiki/The_Snowman)
da's wel goed voor je!
