Elissa didn't like it all the time to wear boots, winterjacket and a hat! But she didn't have any choice!


Luckily there was also some time to relax!!


And some time to play with cousin Nasha!!



We met the "young" generation Koehl.


And the "old" generation Koehl.

It was kind of cold in Holland during our stay. It was constantly raining and temperatures sometimes reached freezing point. But that didn't stop Elissa to go out shopping with grandpa and grandma.


Oma Belanda made a new warm vest for Elissa and look how smart Elissa looked in it!


Elissa did also meet her auntie Charlene. Don't they look cute together?


But there was also some time left to play with opa Ed. I bet he doesn't do this to all his visitors!

Home coming

Well, finally we went home to Holland.
For me and Karin it was the first time since I moved to Dubai and for Elissa it was the first time ever to visit Holland. And as a matter of fact it was for Elissa the first time to come in a place where the temperature was below 30 degrees Celcius.

We did meet lots of friends and family but we also missed out on a lot of other friends. Because Elissa was about to get a new cousin we couldn't make long trips and borrow my parents car. So for all of you that we missed during our stay we would like to apologize and hopefully next time we can meet. Or of course, you can come and visit us in Dubai.

Anyway, we hope to see you next time we visit Holland. And for those we did meet we would like to thank you for the nice time we had together and a big thank you especially for Elissa for all the gifts that she received! She was really spoiled!!
