An Ultra Fun Extreme HamsterTrackin' Mission !
I was very excited to find that Lucy loves her Pine-Seed again !
When I told her about my Extreme HamsterTrackin' Mission,
Lucy volunteered the following look a like pose:


An Ultra Extreme HAmsterTrackin' Mission with my hamster Lucy !
" Sounds like a difficult mission, Dude ! " - Lucy


So I started my travels,
then I got starteled by the awesome light that struck this windmill.
I've known this windmill ever since I was a tiny kid,
and it has been a few years since I have seen it.

The (sun-) lighting and sky is an utter bonus!


An Ultra Extreme HAmsterTrackin' Mission with my hamster Lucy !
" How Dutch ! " - Mathijs


Then some very friendly, passer-by-ers,
offered some help with this Extreme HamsterTrackin' Mission:

" Bypasser-Mom with little kid looked after us,
while Bypasser-Dad took this photograph of me. " - Mathijs


Good thing I always carry a few extra DIY Xtreme HamsterTrackin' kits.
So I can give them away as thank yous.

Again: Thanks to you, anonymous family !

(They got the Lucy picture as a memory of this wonderfull moment, ofcourse !)


Little later ...

I then experienced a huge delay:

" A 45 minute hold up;
yielding for traffic from right. " - Mathijs


This gave me some time to observe:

" Some awesome and amazingly colored (Dutch) clouds. " - Mathijs

After which, I finally arrived at the destination:

(the official goal of this mission.)


Please meet my dear friends Berrie and Daniëlle:

Extreme HamsterTrackin' it @ North Sea Jazz 2008
Music is very important to me ! Although I can't play an instrument,
I do enjoy listening to music so much; it's a part of my life to me, almost like bread and water.

These last couple of months I was looking forward to visiting the
North Sea Jazz 2008 festival:


Extreme HamsterTrackin' the North Sea Jazz festival.
" Coool: My THREE day pass ! " - Mathijs


This weekend, IT FINALLY STARTED!


Ofcourse I didn't go without my DIY Xtreme HamsterTrackin' kit:

" Uhmmmm.... YES, that's me, Extreme HamsterTrackin' it ...
waiting on the entrance doors to open. " - Mathijs


Extreme HamsterTrackin' the North Sea Jazz festival.
" Let us enter ! "

These are just some first moments of the three wonderfull days !



After experiencing some very fine concerts,
after a lot of movin' and groovin', I got home to discover:

Lucy... in a deep 'mental' state:


Extreme HamsterTrackin' the North Sea Jazz festival.
" Lucy's groovin' deep within herself ...
(Silently waiting for the Pine-Seed to be served). " - Mathijs

Concluding the North Sea Jazz-Extreme HamsterTrackin'
At the North Sea Jazz Festival or ANY festival for that matter,
it's always very difficult to photograph the bands:


Extreme HamsterTrackin' the North Sea Jazz festival 2008.
" Lefties Soul Connection jamming major awesome 'Old skool' FUNK " - Mathijs


Extreme HamsterTrackin' the North Sea Jazz festival 2008.
" My first acquaintance with the (again) awesome (FUNK) band : Tower Of Power.
(Picture of is of the HUGE (LED-)video screen) " - Mathijs


Extreme HamsterTrackin' the North Sea Jazz festival 2008.
" I also got acquainted with Buddy Guy's awesome Blues ...
He walked by pretty close, walking around in the crowd while jamming his guitar (during his concert) !!! " - Mathijs


In between concerts (there where 200 acts over 15 podia in 3 days),
I (ofcourse) did some Extreme HamsterTrackin':


Extreme HamsterTrackin' the North Sea Jazz festival 2008.
" I just can't get it to focus... " - Mathijs


Then Kees offered his assistance to help make the perfect shot:


Extreme HamsterTrackin' the North Sea Jazz festival 2008.
" Introducing, bystander offering help: Kees ! " - Mathijs

as with all good & great things:

It then had to end...


Extreme HamsterTrackin' the North Sea Jazz festival 2008.
" When we left, they where already cleaning up ! " - Mathijs


Then I came home late after the last concert:

Extreme HamsterTrackin' Amsterdam (the Netherlands)

The day time office invited me over to Amsterdam,
of course I went there 'Extreme HamsterTrackin' Ready'.


After a long, but very enjoyable day,
I present you my day in Amsterdam:


Extreme HamsterTrackin' Amsterdam, the Netherlands.
" I suppose this is how the Amsterdam harbour looked like,
a few years ago. " - Mathijs


Extreme HamsterTrackin' Amsterdam, the Netherlands.
" Extreme HamsterTrackin' It ! " - Mathijs


Extreme HamsterTrackin' Amsterdam, the Netherlands.
" This is the public Library of Amsterdam,
a.k.a. Openbare Bibliotheek Amsterdam,
a.k.a. 'OBA'. " - Mathijs


Extreme HamsterTrackin' Amsterdam, the Netherlands.
" Extreme HamsterTrackin' It Too! " - Mathijs


This is an amazing library,
they've got robots processing the intake of books,
processing it, returning it up to 5 floors.


Each floor has a theme, so I went to the first floor: 'Multimedia'

I got Stunned ...


There are quite a few people where walking around there,
I had to wait a few moments before I could shoot it.

so I am excited to present you this following photograph,
of how I'd like MY DVD collection to be (who wouldn't?) :


Extreme HamsterTrackin' Amsterdam, the Netherlands.
" I was so overwhelmed, I forgot to take out the Lucy picture... " - Mathijs


I vaguely looked at some titles over there, being scared to get trapped and spend hours doing so.


Then this caught my eye:


Extreme HamsterTrackin' Amsterdam, the Netherlands.
" It took a few shots,
meanwhile it gave me an 'ART-y' feeling :-) " - (ART-ist) Mathijs


You DO need a large living room for this DVD case :)

Extreme HamsterTrackin' with Marcus Miller
and Dj Manga at North Sea Jazz

Even the CEO of HamsterTracker™ needs some time off
once in a while,
So the HamsterTracker™-Ticket Department was ordered,
as well as the HamsterTracker™-PR Department,
to make some arrangements.


It took some work, but with being the Dude of Lucy and all it was "pretty easy" to arrange:

Slightly off-topic... or is it?

Trying to take my mind of having to wait for Lucy 3.0
a little while longer,
I went out hikin' in my 9 meter deep back-yard,


That's when I REALLY noticed this:


Hikin' in my back-yard.
" A Passion Fruit Flower! "


Hikin' in my back-yard.
" Another angle.
Amazing isn't it? "

There are a lot more of these flower-buds


After a (long) walk back,
I grabbed my previously downloaded  DIY Xtreme HamsterTrackin' kit,
and went out on a mission:


Hikin' in my back-yard.
" An ode to Lucy 2.0 ! "
