AFTER COMING HOME

in The Hague, yesterday evening we went to walk along the sea. A splendid sight of the calmest water, the sun already gone begind the horizon. Soft pink light, turning into dark blue. Walking back in the night, cycling again.
I spotted the advertisment in the local paper. Sunday, the 2th of October a big birds of prey show will be held in an enormous animal shop in Loosduinen, not far from here. I saw their web-site and cycled this morning to the Kerketuinen to get more information as where it will be held. Astonishing basement with exotic animals in herbariums, rats, parrots, butterflies and many more, all sorts of equipment to keep animals, food, books and a vetinary surgeon service.
The animal in the blip lives there till some day a customer is enraptured by her.
Mischa makes today the journey from England to Holland, with all her belongings. She will descend at Hoek of Holland, helped by the womanwithvan. A beautiful day to move on a ship, I reckon.
Very emotionally Piet Hein and I await her arrival.

My haiku:

A seal at the sand
of the Zandmotor lying
In the sunshine on guard

And the proverb:

She/He that makes one basket can make a hundred.

Perhaps that counts for making pictures too? Near 300 I am, suddenly so swift.
