Just a heads up that next months contest is going to be "Sinterklaas."
Start working on your photo skills.
For the US members Sinterklaas is the REAL Santa.

Marjolein I love the horse animation lol
The kids and I will be celebrating Sinterklaas for the first time this year seeing as Ruud will be over for that particular time of year.. I look forward to seeing pictures from everyone
My belgian friend and I had fun explaining to our english university friends the other day what Sinterklaas is and they all complained they don't get to enjoy it too

WAAAAA! I want to move to The Netherlands! or at least, spend more time there.
I had such a nice vacation there this year, I've set aside a small time to go in 2012. Of course, to be there for the Championship Club Match.
I'll make sure the battery in my camera is charged.
Now, about the photo. This is going to take some thinking.

I was a little surprised to see the picture with "Black Piet", I wasn't aware that blackface was still accepted in some places.
