Ons Huset is set … 

February 2005, all items collected. The truck rented!

From here and there, family, friends, internet, came the offers, with fun things for the organization.

My father in law, good in loading, took every inch of the bus, there was really no space left anymore. Everything fits in, fortunatel. In the car and in the van came the delicate stuff.
We took the road  to Puttgarden, early in the morning with good weather. In Puttgarden: ”Stop, Police”!!
Well, that started well, we had to open the door. The question was if we were allowed to drive this truck!

Well, the door is open, and yes, the shade sails outside, one coat after it …. It was so clear, we were amateurs, who were moving. They asked, to remove everyting out of the truck! Help, we would never get it in there anymore. Afterwards the police said: Just kidding!

From Denmark to Halmstad in Sweden, whe had good weather to travel. In Halmstad we slept in a nice hotel. The next day, the tension is growing, how the house would be found by the family? Well, at about 14.00 p.m. We opend the door of Ons Huset and we heard oh’s and ah’s! Approved!

The setting, father and mother in law, my sister’s husband and we, was perfect, we did’nt have to renovate  bathrooms, bedrooms, walls, etc.,but within a few days it became a ”home”. That same week, was the Swedish Rally, so we promised, once to visit the Rally. From now on, we could start thinking about the other things, we had to do: website building, hiring, who mows the grass, when we are not there,  etc.

In June, we wanted to renovate the whole drainage system around the house and into the street. The appointment was made.

Full of good sense and expectation, back to theNetherlands.
