To Amsterdam

The Netherlands Maritime Museum.I've been reading articles for my internship today, on Co-Design.

In a while I'll be leaving to Amsterdam, to the ship of the Scheepsvaartmuseum (Netherlands Maritime Museum).

Tonight there'll be two Kolonisten tournaments at the same time. A WK Qualification and very big one just for fun. It's organized by 999 Games and the VARA (a Dutch broadcasting organisation).

I've improved the Excel spreadsheets as there was a maximum of 64 players and the big tournament tonight will have 130+ people playing.

Too late!

We wanted to leave to Schiphol in about 30 minutes. But now it turns out Jaap's plane will arrive 30 minutes earlier. That means we would have to leave now to be on time.


Unfortunately he doesn't know we'll be there so he wouldn't wait for us either... too bad!

Meeting supervisors

This morning I had a meeting with all my supervisors for my internship. Ralf Lämmel came to Haarlem and he and Bert and Petra met each other for the first time.


Bert, Petra and Ralf.

It was an interesting meeting and they approved my project plan.

Sinterklaas

Every Dutch person knows that today Sinterklaas arrived in Zaltbommel. As always, in the end everything turned out to be fine (although they almost ended up back in Spain).

Sint en Piet weekend ze niet.There's a nice agreement between St. Maarten, St. Nicolaas and Santa Claus.

If you would like to help Sinterklaas there is a weekend course for it that gets you officially certified.

Bulgaria

Calling Bulgaria

A friend of Sasha told us about a cheaper way of calling Bulgaria. It's called Teledump. The rate to Bulgaria is 5 ct per minute, including tax.

Calling using KPN is at least 32 ct per minute, using 1658 it's also at least 32 ct per minute so it's a big difference.

The quality of the connection wasn't extremely well, but then again: 5 cts.... When we call my parents we pay 3,7 cts per minute.
