Darlene and Mike’s first visit back to Holland since they moved in December was slightly interrupted by the volcanic ash from the Icelandic eruption, but luckily they were still able to make it out to spend a night with us. While Mike did some errands, Darlene and I cycled to the teahouse in the park in Voorschoten. Then we took a walk to Lilac Mountain, a hill that is covered in fragrant lilacs for just two weeks a year. Jimmy introduced them to shrimp and grits (I brought back a bag from the Southern Season store at RDU). The next day I went into Leiden with Darlene and Mike for a walk around town and to our traditional pannekoeken house. It was a very short visit, but so great to see them.
