For supper we went to the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.restaurantsirtaki.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"Greek restaurant Sirtaki  (opens in a new tab)\">Greek restaurant Sirtaki <\/a>in Valkenswaard, yum! Because it was Sunday night, all their boys were there as well. Els&#8217;s son Brian and Leon&#8217;s sons Luca and Nino. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>During the following three days we were on our own during the day, so we went for visits in Eindhoven (dad, Hennie) and did some last shopping. Bergeijk is a small town to the southwest of Eindhoven, in a rural area with nice scenery. There were a bunch of warning signs for crossing deer and wild boar, but nope, we didn&#8217;t see any!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the evenings we had supper together and chilled on the couch. If their dog Irah would let us, haha!

He lives close to the Kastelenplein mall and the weekly market in their parking lot was on that day. Els recommended we go there for some famous rotisserie chickens (Chrissie&#8217;s chicken) and she didn&#8217;t exaggerate! Nico approved! I prefered some sweet &#8220;oliebollen&#8221; \ud83d\ude42 After our snacks we went to visit dad and Amalia.<\/p>\n\n\n\t\t\t<style>\n                #foogallery-gallery-7655.fg-justified .fg-item

There were delays because of the fog, but by the time we left, it was only half an hour. No northern lights this time, but I got some pics from sea ice near Greenland and really neat ones from Edmonton when we landed there. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In Edmonton I got to meet a longtime online friend, Sandra. That was so great! We had a bite and drink together in a restaurant at the airport. So nice to actually see, hear and hug each other after so many years!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image alignwide size-large is-style-default\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"https:\/\/www.wobben.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/191205_09_edmonton_sandra-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-7696\" srcset=\"https:\/\/wobben.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/191205_09_edmonton_sandra-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/wobben.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/191205_09_edmonton_sandra-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/wobben.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/191205_09_edmonton_sandra-140x105.jpg 140w, https:\/\/wobben.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/191205_09_edmonton_sandra-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/wobben.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/191205_09_edmonton_sandra-100x75.jpg 100w, https:\/\/wobben.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/191205_09_edmonton_sandra-846x635.jpg 846w, https:\/\/wobben.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/191205_09_edmonton_sandra-1184x888.jpg 1184w, https:\/\/wobben.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/191205_09_edmonton_sandra-1320x990.jpg 1320w, https:\/\/wobben.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/191205_09_edmonton_sandra.jpg 1500w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>After one more (short) flight we finally got back to Regina and were able to sleep with our kitties in our arms again!

The one with the chocolate letters is for the Marchants who took fantastic care of our kitties and our house again \u2665 Eternal thanks for that big job!
