I'm back from Centerparcs

<div style="text-align: justify;">I'm back from our short break to Centerparcs Heijderbos in Holland, near the German border. We had a great time there, the weather was really nice :) We also went on our bike to Germany the look for the Essence holographic collection but too bad I couldn't find it there :( Most of the time we spent in the swimming pool, walking/biking, shopping or in the Jungle Dome. The Jungle Dome is this great indoors tropical playing jungle for kids (well as an adult you can have fun too ;)) with all kinds of animals living there. It's sponsered by the WWF. This blog post I'll show you some photo's of our short break, most of them or from the animals because I just love animals :) You can click on all photos to enlarge them.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiD0Oa0E3dIApe2brW75dYobbdSpkhXOW6aSObm3YKNT5-k-JemTKG2iaJj0e-U4-bI1QvfH8C6CNdTR6UmX-qeTo99opsKyaPQ0zW65fM3LzGAv9wLYHSRHz8A85YWd-9nnV8r6zHZSfs/s1600/Centerparcs+met+Toekan.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="313" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiD0Oa0E3dIApe2brW75dYobbdSpkhXOW6aSObm3YKNT5-k-JemTKG2iaJj0e-U4-bI1QvfH8C6CNdTR6UmX-qeTo99opsKyaPQ0zW65fM3LzGAv9wLYHSRHz8A85YWd-9nnV8r6zHZSfs/s400/Centerparcs+met+Toekan.jpg" t8="true" width="400" /></a></div><div style="text-align: justify;">My Centerparcs nails from my previous blog on the photo with my new friend the Toucan.

Garden Style... Architectural Salvage... French Country... Retro & Vintage Style... it's all there under one roof... just waiting for you to peruse and 'score' for your own Special spaces... so come back tomorrow and over the next few days to behold and enjoy even more at <a href="http://nottooshabbyonline.com/"><span style="color: #b45f06;"><strong>NOT TOO SHABBY</strong></span></a> in Phoenix...</em></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><em>Dawn...
