Week 17 2011, from April 25th.

Smoothly accelerating over the horribly uneven pavement around the palace.

The Utrechtsestraat a few minutes before it was neat and tidy again.
Guy

The enjoyment of a fast analog world.
Guy

190 reasons to enjoy this juwel.
Guy

Quiet.

The table didn't make it.

That's not what I think of when I think of a Harley.

P.C. Hooftstraat.

"Don't look back when you had a nice time."

Sunday.
The day after.

Dotty.
Guy

Sun and fun glasses
Guy

There is fathomless joy.
Guy

And they go to the festivities by boat.
Guy

Hordes of orange people walk downtown from the Southern train station to join the festivities.

At 9:30 it's still very quiet on the Museumplein.

Saturday the 30th.
Entrepreneurs from out of town carry their merchandise
to the one-day street market on the Queens Birthday.

The church of Saint Médard of Any-Martin-Rieux.
Disappearance or resurrection?

Hey, wanna bet or not!?

The Amsterdam mayor Van der Laan presented a royal distinction
to Lucien Lafour on the basis of his architectural work in Surinam of the past 40 years,
which has been photographed for the occasion by Liselore Kamping and Joost Guntenaar,
and may be seen at Arcam on the Prins Hendrikkade 600, Amsterdam,

“From time to time we depart for a mini-vacance.
In the morning we attach the mini caravan behind the DS,
and with a lovely lunch on board we roam about to seek a nice spot,
like yesterday in Puy l’Evèque,” wrote Erik Verhaest.

Still quiet.
And tomorrow crowd managers will keep the crowd under control, we hope.

"Tomorrow you won't even be able to ride a bike, it'll be an ant heap here."

"But a Porsche only seats two, isn't it?"

The street is narrower every day.

The Vondelpark will be closed today at 20:00
and opened at 9:00 the next day, the 30th.

Occasional rain. I keep my fingers crossed.

School holidays imply extra rides.

Seemingly happy with the vehicle of his future wife.

We haven't heard of plans concerning a possible occupation of the Vondelpark.

A portrait of Prince William, or maybe her husband.

The grass is still green.
Screens are put up to shield off the square tomorrow,
the queens birthday.

Friday.
There she goes again!

Inhale deeply then click.

Beware of the Fire Fighting Chicks!

Fotograferen op Maasvlakte 2. Freek van Arkel vertelt.

Zaterdag 14 mei, voorafgaand aan de Week van de Amateurkunst, geeft fotograaf Freek van Arkel een presentatie over fotograferen op Maasvlakte. Ga aan de slag met het thema Nieuw Land en maak kans op deelname. Laat je fantasie de vrije loop, ga aan de slag met het thema Nieuw Land en win een workshop nachtfotografie op Maasvlakte 2. Je kan het thema letterlijk interpreteren en buiten aan de slag gaan, waarbij je op een creatieve manier in de stad of op het platteland ‘nieuw land’ fotografeert. Maar fotografie biedt natuurlijk ook de mogelijkheid om zelf nieuw land te creëren of samen te stellen. Voorafgaand aan de workshop geeft een bekende Nederlandse fotograaf een lezing over fotograferen op de Maasvlakte en in de havens.

PP economized the efficiency of his transport mode.

A chain of mishaps this morning.

"I can't magine Robin Hood as a skimmer."

"You were this voice inside me. But what is it you said literally?"

"Do as I do, walk as a zebra!"

Thursday.
"I came as far as the bridge, and I'll have to walk the rest."

Jolly colors of a Fietsfabriek cart.

TVR Sagaris. Still striking lines. Still Russian?

TVR Sagaris. The car's name comes from the sagaris, the Greek name
of a lightweight battle-axe used by the Scythians which was feared
for its ability to penetrate the armor of their enemies. The car was designed
by Graham Browne and Lee Hodgetts.

The other flower man in the Van Baerlestraat takes a swift break.

Sidewalk leads to a dead end.

Terrace guests will have to hold on to their cups.

All set.

"Mammie, what's you plan?"

"Switch your phone on dummy!!!"

It seems to have been a delightful party.

"Yes, granny's still there, waiting for you."

"I see seven league boots in the show window."

All neat and tidy.

The recently rolled out new lawn is waiting to be trampled on on the Queens Birthday.

Still around.
Guy

A leak sensor, gas leaks.

Garbage In Garbage Out.

Wednesday.
The bulls are loose!

Perfect smile.

Close!

Rudy was in the Bagels & Beans today to informally say good-bye to his clients.

Supple - the wheel chair becomes the sphere-chair.

By Paul Ridden. Despite not becoming the personal transport revolution that it was designed to be, the Segway has provided a wealth of design fodder for numerous self-balancing concepts, prototypes and production single occupancy vehicles. Mohamad Sadegh Samakoush Darounkolayi's entry into this year's Michelin Design Challenge, however, probably owes more to the Disney/Pixar film WALL-E – hopefully the users of his Supple concept won't end up being the grossly overweight, lethargic, mentally-challenged descendants of humanity like those aboard the Axiom cruise ship. Essentially a self-balancing chair set above an omnidirectional ball, the idea is that Supple will benefit from automated wireless guidance technology, with the driver/rider just needing to choose a destination on a GPS map using the touchscreen console, and the vehicle taking care of the rest. The 19 year-old mechanical engineering student from Iran also sees the electric transport solution having the ability to join with others to form a two-person tandem "motorcycle" or four-person automobile. More in GizMag.

What's the chance that a boat passes over the Velser Tunnel
just before we'd drive into the entrance? Well, by coincidence this happened
at 19:17.

All hands!
Guy

"Let's go sit on the terrace. It's too crowded on the water."
Guy

"From here, Hector, we'll start roaming for an hour or so."
Guy

There's still a patch of free grass.
Guy

Also to the park.
Guy

After a long stroll in the park we get to the Bagels & Beans
for another coffee and an wonderfully crispy Apple Cinamon Muffin.
Yeah, Great Day.

Lost&found fence in the Vondelpark.

Zoomer is standing by.

The waiter was recognizable from afar, swift in his actions,
efficient, and pleasant to the guests on the terrace.

"It takes him a rather long time to come up with the drinks."

"Downstairs there is party going on, on top of a house in the park!"

Party in full swing.

Inline.

Maditating?

Birthday party on the lawn.

The quiet side of the PC Hooftstraat ending up in the park.

Early in the morning traffic is still slow.
Han Hobo de Vries Hobo quietly passes by,
smartly avoiding the shark's teeth.

Easter Treat on the terrace of Small Talk.

After the zebra another 200 yards and you may catch
the end off the line to enter the Van Gogh.

A splendid day for standing on a hill watching
somebody do something unknown. Lewis

Parked outside the Hot Club on Easter Sunday...
note the high-tech restraining device for the battery.
Lewis

And, in mid afternoon, a nice day for climbing the hill
to Brown University and waiting, with Amanda's dog Natasha,
while I take pictures of the sunbathing students
on the green across the street. Lewis

Easter Monday.
Strikingly, overwhelmingly, strangely, obligatory beautiful,
but what would the outlook be nearer to the horizon?
Aernoud Witteveen

Dat vraag ik me niet af. Ik weet wat er over de horizon is, het onbekende speelt zich aan deze zijde af. Iets wat ik  nog niet eerder had gezien. De weg van Any naar Aubenton; van dwarsaf gezien verdwijnt de weg. De bomen er langs lijken te dansen. Maar als kijker vraag ik me dat niet af, ik bedenk eigenlijk nu pas hoe het plaatje in elkaar zit. Overigens denk ik dat heuvels hoger moeten zijn om nieuwsgierig naar gene zijde te worden. Duitsers bouwen graag bovenop heuveltoppen. Geen berg zonder kasteel, geen helling of bovenaan vind je een gelegenheid om bratwurst en bier te nuttigen. Wellicht is het daardoor dat de Bourgogne een wat Duitse indruk op ons maakt. AW
