Visitation

Rowan is in London for a two day conference and she came over last night to for a visit. She's connected in my mind with some of the best memories of my life. She and Angus hosted the New Year's party in Amsterdam 2000 (during the visit when Aaron and I got engaged). We all played games and ate until some of us decided to go out for a walk. It was pure madness outside with fireworks going off in every direction. We walked up the stairs of the NEMO museum (or the Scheepvaart - can only recognize the small area by sight!) on the edge of the water surrounded by different colored explosions. The next day the streets were covered in red paper dust.

Here's Rowan in a very familiar pose:

In our visits to Scotland Rowan would happily peel everyone's oranges for them and make sure the peels were in one piece. She'd put the peels on the wood burning stove and make the rooms would smell wonderful.

Tonight Aaron and I are going to take her out for a walk around the neighborhood - look out for more pictures!
