It is mid September now and I think we can safely assume, the summer is officially over. This last weekend though has been nice, sunny and warm as if the summer wants to apologize for all those totally useless rainy days in July and August where we would have loved to be at the beach. It was warm enough for shorts and T-shirt but as so often quite windy. I took Cora out with the bike and we cycled to the country site in the North of Amsterdam. We went via the Oranje Sluis (The sluice connecting the Ijsselmeer with the Amsterdam waterways).
