Every year
again we have problems to decide where to go. To avoid all the discussions we made
a choice for camping months ago. This kept us calm until a week ago. Last
weekend we started to look for the ideal camping spot. We put all our wishes in
a list and started to search the internet. After a whole weekend of discovering
almost all camping’s located on the French coast we found one who seems to fit.
After waiting for a day the disappointing answer came, no pitch available. Then
we started again with fewer criterions, we even looked in Italy and we’ve
discussed possible countries for an all-inclusive holiday by plane. Today we
received an answer of two camping’s that they have a pitch available. One
camping is very expensive and the other one too far away. We have still one
request open and we keep our fingers crossed that their answer will be
positive. When this will be a negative answer we definitely going to search for
a flight to an nice warm and sunny country.
As a Dutch person learning English I have started this blog to help me out to improve my use of English. It's still difficult for me to find the right words to express what I want to tell. I hope the readers will let me know when I made mistakes.Of course I would appreciate it also to hear if there is something well written.

The worlcup footbal Brasil
And how a country gets mad....
It’s
amazing to see how a big part of the Dutch people change into weird strange creatures
during a World Cup or a European Cup football. Everything is orange such as
houses, cars, pets and even food. To be honest I’m one of those crazy ones. I’m
not wearing orange all the time but when “we” have to play I’m in front of the
television in my orange shirt and orange with red, white and blue striped nails.
Together with my dog Basil who is wearing a nice orange polo shirt for the
occasion, decorated with the text “effe scoren”.
The match of yesterday was a real thriller to watch, it really looked like we were going to lose that one. Fortunately they managed to change to possible outcome and now we are already sure of playing the next round. This will be a knockout game so then it’s really important to play amazing direct from the start. Before this we have to play one more match in our pool against Chili. I’m looking forward to this game because this will definitely be a real exciting game. Chili is really playing very attractive football, so this has to be fun to watch. Luckely for us it doesn't matter much if we lose. About the strange dressed people I want to make one thing clear, we Dutch are not the only ones who are dressed like idiots. I've seen a lot of different ways of wearing the nations colours the last days.
