The big day day arrived in November, the day I left Amsterdam as a resident and travelled back to the motherland. As you can imagine, this for me, was a BIG day... and some unusual things happened to make sure it was an unforgettable one...
I probably never mentioned the fact that no-one has ever really seen me off at an airport, or collected me at the arrivals gate. I have this constant dread of coming through the arrival doors with all of those faces waiting, anticipating the arrival of their loved ones, only to be faced with me. The looks of disappointment are soul destroying!!! Where are the marching bands and home made signs for me???
Well forget all of that, for this trip was to be different. Not only was I escorted to the departures gate by some GREAT friends... I was also greeted at the other end by an unusual sight... Im not sure who was more embarrassed!!
8 Members of my family dressed as my childhood FEAR, Grotbags 8 of them!!! I kinda wish I had been horribly delayed so that they were left there a little longer... made me laugh though.. A lot!
