4 seconds of National fame... :)

Today I had 4 seconds on national television, lol!! Ok so it was in the background but one of my co workers DID recognize me! You can see it here

I had an appointment today at the local council of a small town called Naarden. I was there with one of my coworkers and we thought the town was so full of life and even a little crowded... The weather was nice and it's a nice small town for tourists so we thought it was just a nice day.

Then it appeared that we had totally missed the important event of the day, the mayor of the town was getting married today. I have worked on the sideline of politics long enough (even have my bachelor in European studies) to recognize the name of Peter Rehwinkel, the mayor of Naarden but I didn't know he was getting married today. The person we had the business meeting with told us we could go just across the street from the townhall for lunch, where we had excellent view on the whole ceremony outside! And since we sat outside on the terrace... I was actually in the scoop of the camera! You won't even see me if you don't know me I think... I am the person who is in the white trousers and brown shirt (it's my Fat Face shirt, Carol!) from 25-29 seconds on this video... my whole 4 seconds of national fame!

Have a great day (I did!).
