Some days you have it all
Martin Roell came over to our place for a quick visit on friday, hopping of the train for a stay at our place for a night before joining his parents for a holiday in Friesland. Ton thought it was a good opportunity for us to go there too, so we dropped Martin off in Sneek and we drove to one of the lakes to enjoy the wheather and have a look at all the boats. Luckily the wheather was really nice and warm in Friesland despite the warnings of bad wheather coming in from the south.
When we drove back at the end of the afternoon the wheather started changing and we had some showers on our way home. When we got back, Ton and I had just enough time to walk into town for an icecream and back. At one point I looked back and this gigantic black sky was rushing towards the city, doing lots of damage in different places in the western part of Holland. The shapes of these clouds were something we hadn't seen before. We had a few minutes to take some pictures outside before it started to rain. We checked the wheather radar and we could see that it was just this one strip of rain and nothing else that was filling the sky. Fortunately for us the force of the storm and rain had already tempered when it got to our place, so no bad things happened here. A strange ending of the day after such a warm, sunny day at the lakeside.
