Yesterday was our 20th wedding anniversary and Mrs. Goodwatch and I spent a long weekend in the beautiful town of Middelburg, the capital of the Province of Zealand. (No, not New Zealand). Nice hotel, nice dinners and drinks and lovely evenings on the terrace. We liked it so much we will be returning next year. We returned this afternoon, tomorrow it’s back to work but only for a couple of days because Friday our big trip to Indonesia starts and I will be leaving you all for 3 weeks!

Our hotel

Middelburg's Town Hall

Old gate

Big congratulations on your 20th anniversary, Frans and Anne!

Mrs. Dutchie has my complete admiration for putting up with you all these years!

Sounds like you both had a great time celebrating. Here's to many, MANY more!

Congrats on your 20th wedding anniversary! That is SUCH an accomplishment these days. Great pics as well!

It looks beautiful, Frans. Congratulations.

Goodwatch · 12 June 2007, 06:51 AM

Thanks guys!

We really had a great time together and had ample time to talk about those 20 years. A lot has happened but we still love each other very much

No real effort, it just happens

Belated congratulations to you both and it sounds like you had a great time.

I hope your trip to Indonesia is just as enjoyable and don't worry, we will try to keep the insanity going until you get back.

Congratulations on your 20th

Congratulations on reaching that milestone, Frans. Best wishes to you and Anne.

Middelburg looks like a nice place to spend a romantic time. I love the "vintage" look of European towns. Best we can do over here is maybe 100 years (and those places are few and far between).

Have a great trip to Indonesia.
