Holland, 1991

Cami, Jess, me, Emma

In 1990 we were lucky enough to move to a little town in Germany for two years. My dad was stationed at Worms Army Base and we lived in a cute little town called Osthofen. I was six. Here's your old classic Richey family of the week. Holland circa 1991.

Things I remember from that trip:

• I didn't have a proper coat, just a rain slicker. I think I forgot to pack it. So, to keep me warm I wrapped my ratty blanket around my torso and put my rain slicker over the top. I lost it and then later found it 30 seconds after a pair of old Dutch women picked it up by a corner, examining it warily between them. 
• Lots and lots of tulips
• Wanting wooden clogs until I tried them on.
• Being cold.

The typical things a 7 year old remembers...
