Tuesday with Monique

Goodmorning!

After I woke up very early at 05.00, I started to pack my bags once again. Tomorrow I'm going on duty again. The rest of the team already left yesterday. I'm the last one to go, because I had some extra days off. I'll have to call staffco later for my flight details, but I'll be either be flying KE at 18.10 or KL at 18.35. It doesn't matter, because both fly non-stop.

After ironing some clothes, polishing my working shoes, I decided to relax and wait for my cousin Monique who was coming over for a quick visit, before heading to school. Around 06.00 my cousin arrived at the house. She came back from Aruba yesterday after a 2 week vacation. She went there to see her grandparents and also to go to Sint Maarten for carnival. She had a great time she said.

Of course she brought me some CD's from the Sint Maarten carnival, so she came by to drop them off. We talked for a good while and then she left. She has a tentamen later on at her schhol in Haarlem.

Later on I'll head over to the dry-cleaners to pick up my AFC uniform and suits anf then just hang around and watch TV. Mom is in Montréal in Canada since yesterday for her job at Philips and Junior is in Oostende in Belgium for his job at P&O/Nedlloyd. Dad is in Aruba and R. is in Los Angeles for a cousin's wedding. So I am all alone and tomorrow I leave. When I say I have a family of travellers, I wasn't kidding. Welcome to our lives!
