A day away from work often means a change of pace, and today was no exception.
With a planned visit to Maastricht University with my eldest son, I was confident that my daily step count would soar.
My son had finally found his academic calling: law.
The university was hosting an open day, and we had registered for the Faculty of Law.
As we arrived in Maastricht, the historic city with its limited parking and hefty fees (€11 per hour), we opted for a free shuttle bus from a parking lot outside the city center.
A short walk through the sun-drenched streets led us to the faculty building.
The presentation on the three-year bachelor's degree and the possible master's degrees took a suitable backdrop from the historical architecture of the faculty.
As I watched my son, pride shot through me.
His commitment and self-control were very remarkable.
After the university visit, we stopped by to see my parents.
A recent event was a wake up call that reminded me to cherish these moments, as health can change unexpectedly.
Over coffee and cake, we enjoyed their company.
The following days are marked by the local fair.
Tonight, I was attending a disco-themed party.
Pulling out my most colorful clothes and some accessories from my dress-up chest, I was ready to dance the night away.
The music, food, and dancing would undoubtedly keep my pedometer happy well into the night.
Unfortunately, the day ended on a damp note with a heavy rain shower during my bikeride back home.
Despite the wet finale, it had been a day filled with discovery, celebration, and quality time with loved ones.
Wishing you all the best in life and much health.
