Are you ready for trick or treating? Yes, say Merrick and Martijn. Eliot smirks like he knows that there is candy waiting for him inside the houses. Miles wasn't quite sure what to make of the whole scene, though he was happy to follow where ever Eliot went. He and the other little ones would patiently wait for the big kids to move out of the doorways for their turn. Though the trick or treating was to occur between 5 and 7, it seems most of us were walking in a big wave from house to house.
The kids had a blast. Jim and I enjoyed our mulled wine along the walk. Right when we had finished one of the two streets, the skies let loose. Hoards of people and costumed kids ran into Deborah's for shelter from the pouring rain. When the rain stopped 10 minutes later, we did the other half of the route. A lot of houses let the kids choose their treats rather than placing it in the halloween bags. There were lots of Dutch favorites: marshmallows, gummy treats, and even some Sinterklaas cookies.Hey, wait for us!
