It’s always great to get together with others that share the same passion – and in this case, our passion is most definitely photography, and you will see from the photos in this post, that we (Vinita, Tineke, Sandra, and me… Tigs!)  like to combine photography with lots of fun and laughter! Do you remember when Vin, Tin and Tigs went to Utrecht?

Btw. I love the way that sounds – Vin, Tin and Tigs – thanks to Sandra for that, since I pinched it from her blog post title ;) I also pinched ‘cheese and laughs’ from Tin’s blog post title, because that sums our day up quite nicely! Hope they don’t mind!

So, where to start… well, this time we all met up in Gouda to visit the cheese market. Whilst wandering the old parts of the city we managed to stumble upon a ‘secret garden’ where we had much fun creating self-portraits and pulling silly faces to each other – we’re all big kids at heart! After our play in the secret garden we stopped for lunch at a fabulous bagel shop to feast on delicious bagels and unfortunately we ran out of time to taste their incredibly delicious cheeeeeeesecake that Vinita had been tempting us with for so long, lucky for us, we got it all packed up nicely for us to enjoy back at Vinita’s home :-) yum! I’ve never tasted cheesecake soooo gooooood!

What’s in the bag that Vinita is holding? it’s cheeeeeesecake!!!!! :-)

Yes, here we are in the ‘secret garden’ and the sillyness begins………

I think Tin wins the competition of ‘most silly’! lol

Here I am spinning around and around with my new fish eye lens….. do you see Tin and Sandra snapping pics of me in the background..?

Are they really self-portaits..? You betcha! And me likes! ;)

So… here we are at the cheese market, and having fun and laughs with those working there!

Busy busy on the phones..

Tin never stops being silly, never!

See ice cream shop, must buy ice cream – right Tin? ;-)

And back home, to Vinita’s gorgeous son – here he is eating a delicious lollypop – and their gorgeous (and mostly shy) puddy cat, sweet Maffie :-)

Hope you enjoyed my rather large selection of photos… be sure to stop by Vinita, Tin and Sandra’s blogs to see their photos too:
