00:00Dear Max, you ask me if I want to keep you informed about our life here.

00:25Father is happy that there is work again.
00:27Uncle Harry is doing good things in the square.
00:31And I work in a Jewish nursing home.
00:34But the biggest news is that Sally and I are married.
00:38We even have our own house.
00:41The view, the merry-go-round of the streets below.
00:45What else can an Amsterdammer wish for?

01:45Kiss you.
