I can not ride my BMW the next few weeks. I had a problem that the level of the coolingfluid
was much to low, just after a few days after filling it to the max. The bike is at the workshop
at Motorservice Ossendrecht now.
A picture Vincent made whit his cellphone while I was checking the coolingfluid level.
I'm afraid it will be an expensive repair again . Just last week I was checking
out a few GoldWings because I was thinking about trading the BMW in for a GoldWing but that will have to wait
now.

My daughter organised a family trip to "Blijdorp", the zoo in Rotterdam,
as a present for mothersday for my wife. All our children, their partners
and our grandchildren were there and we had a nice day.

After our vist to the zoo, we went to the nearby McDonalds for some
burgers and milkshakes and then we all went to our homes.

The city of Bergen op Zoom introduced their new website today. The press was invited on the "Grote Markt"
(the market square) in Bergen op Zoom and I was there to write an article for
Regioactueel.nl
When it started, a ten meter high banner with the logo of Bergen op Zoom was hoisted on the church tower as
the alderman responsible for the website and the webmaster told us about the new site.
After the official part, that started at nine AM !!,we had a cup of coffee on the terrace of a restaurant on the Grote Markt.

Every year there is a Ratbikeday at Café "Die Twee" in Bergen op Zoom . I was there to write an
article for
Regioactueel.nl and for the bike magazine "Bigtwin". Yes I know, it's a dirty job but someone has to do it.
The weather was perfect and I made some nice pictures of people on their ratbikes for my article.

It is a very nice day today. Perfect for a short trip on the BMW so I get on the bike and ride to the Isle of Tholen.
On all kind of small countryroads I spend more then two hours to cover only eighty kilometer but I have a good
relaxing time.

At the clubhouse of Satudarah MC was a tattoo convention this Sunday and I went there to make an
article for Regioactueel.nl
and also a video report for the local TV station.
It took this man 30 years to get this many tattoo's all over his body.
I had a very interesting interview with Rinus, the tattoo artist that organised this event. I learned a lot about tattoos. There was a tattoo artist doing
Samoa tattoos with wooden sticks. That is not just doing the tattoo but there is a lot of Samoa culture involved. Very interesting.
I also learned that there is more to tattoos then just nice pictures. Some tattoo artist work together with medical specialist is a hospital to give people
who have lost all of their hair because of cancer, new eyebrows and more very usefull things like that.
I realy enjoyed making this article
