Weekend tips for January 22, 23 & 24
Brrr, it’s cold isn’t it? And this weekend it doesn’t really get any warmer. Perfect to drink coffee or hot chocolate in town if you ask me, to visit a museum (must visit: the collection of photo’s of Marilyn Monroe at the Eduard Planting Gallery), to ice skate, to shop or to catch a movie. Whatever else is going on this weekend, can be read in our weekly Weekend Guide! >> Happy Weekend!
