It was a charming little house and I can see how you would have an attachment to it.<br />How much it has changed now!

My sister still lives in the house my parents built and raised us in, now having raised her own family there. I don't get back there much but those walls really speak to me.

In its place are shopping malls and other building that make my hometown far different from what I remember.

I have always wanted to go to New Zealand since receiving a New Zealand charm bracelet from a friend. It has wonderful kiwi birds and platapus. Amazing story about the platapus; no one believed they were real in England because they were such an odd creature they thought someone had been playing around with an anteater, a duck and a mole! Do you still have kiwis or are they extinct. Wasnt Lord of the Rings filmed there! Oh some day I will visit! Should I bring my dutch shoes?chiccorealhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16902834462795623856noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-838644232340959537.post-77850123803331082112010-01-22T10:52:28.143+13:002010-01-22T10:52:28.143+13:00The picture of your old house in its original stat...The picture of your old house in its original state reminds me of my mother's house, the house she lived in throughout her childhood during the twenties thirties and forties. It was in the Marnixplein in Haarlem. <br /><br />Two years ago when I visited Holland the house was still there, almost exactly the same as it had been in my mother's photos. <br /><br />These images and memories are important to us even after the house no longer exists. <br /><br />It's wonderful for you to have such a record, your memories and your imagination. The house will always be alive for you therefore.Elisabethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04015624747225433940noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-838644232340959537.post-48854808114789469722010-01-22T07:10:44.220+13:002010-01-22T07:10:44.220+13:00A lot of good memories, I am sure!A lot of good memories, I am sure!Margiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14433759763753850718noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-838644232340959537.post-54622989646556420982010-01-22T03:25:49.839+13:002010-01-22T03:25:49.839+13:00Not at all.
