Kermis

We were invited up to Schagen for the Kermis festival by our Dutchy friends, Marloes and Robert.

We don't know what Kermis is about, but drinking was involved, so we had to go. Before the event, we met Marloes' brother, Erik, and had some drinks at his house. He has a new kitten to play with ...

After the warmup drinks, we headed around to the pub. Unfortunately, we were quite drunk already, and Toolman doesn't remember much of the actual event. This picture explains the general idea:

Kermis is some kind of local village celebration (Spring harvest?). As with most Dutch celebrations, the drinks flowed.

Toolman and Erik toast to Kermis!

Its just beer if you are wondering...

A great night, we think !?!
