Of course next week is my birthday first, but right after we will all prepare for Sinterklaas. He's already in our country. He will be touring and this coming Saturday he will visit our town also. We'll sing Sinterklaas songs. Most evenings we may put our shoes near the chimney. Sinterklaas and Zwarte Piet could bring presents...and I love small presents.
(all about this wonderful Dutch tradition here. The Description of all the preparations is exactly right. Especially small children are nervous towards december 5. Every day there's even a special Sinterklaas-news bulletin on TV.)
