As you all lie asleep

Monday morning and quite frankly I'm pissed. American banks are so horrible about doing things quickly. Add that to my GMT -1 and my Pella banks don't open until 2:00 Leiden. Aside.
I met my friend's friend, Holger yesterday while I was walking around trying to find cigarettes. I was told for months about this guy and within the first five days of me wandering a city of 115,000 people...there he is. We hung out, he bought a round of beer, and then showed me his apartment.
Today's picture was taken as I was walking to my house Saturday night. We had gone out for supper and on our way back the sun was beginning to set behind the clouds. This was the first time Saturday that we saw the sun. It was very lovely. We were so lucky to have the windmill just right there to add to the power and intensity of this shot.

Hmm...the canal...the windmill... is that supposed to look familiar?
