IN THE BONNETRIE IN AMSTERDAM

there is a glass dome with a beautiful Christmas tree beneath it. "Modemagazijn" de Bonnetrie sells cloths for men and women, it has a long history and a certain chiqueness about it. There is also a Bonnetrie in The Hague. I do not shop there, neither in the department in Amsterdam.
I tried the tree and the dome. The dome for the blip, but the top of the tree one can see at the right.
I went early in the morning to Amsterdam, met with our friend Cor and we walked hours but not in the polders because of the cold but from the Westerpark and Old West to the centre. Nice with the canals and the lights when the twilights set in.
Then a little rest with a beer and a nice diner in the Thai restaurant.

My haiku:

Reach for the stars above
Keep an eye on the traffic
And come home safely

And the latin proverb:

There is no easy road from the earth to the stars.
