First day in the Netherlands

Wed, 10/03/2007 - 5:56pm

Gerben and Ettie's new house. I saw so many people today, it was great.

In the morning I visited Alrik and saw their home for the first time. Jaap and I went for a walk to my mother's school, and when we came back home the three of us went to Heerenveen.

We went to my grandmother's home where I met Ettie and Gerben, and we had a good time. We went for dinner (Chino-Indonesian cuisine), I saw Ettie & Gerben's new home and we closed the day with a cup of tea at their apartment in Leeuwarden.

Vacation in Middenmeer

Tue, 10/02/2007 - 5:58pm

In the train to Heathrow.I am now in Middenmeer!

I left our office at 3.30 pm today and took a cab to Paddington train station. Traffic was fairly heavy already (it must be really bad during rush hour) and it took more than 30 minutes to get to the station.

From there I took the Heathrow Express and it was less than 20 minutes to the airport. It took a while to check in: there were long lanes and there was some hassle because my bags were 10 pounds heavier than the allowance. In the end I didn't have to pay a surcharge and around 6.45 pm we left for Amsterdam!

I am taking a few days off and I'm staying with my parents in Middenmeer. Jaap and Mieke came to pick me up from the airport and it was great to see them again. For dinner I had sandwich with Dutch cheese and a Grimbergen beer.

To the London office

Tue, 10/02/2007 - 1:34am

London in the morning.Yesterday I went to our office in the London City, the central area of town.

The weather was as it should be in London: gray and rainy. I left the hotel and quickly went inside again to pick up my jacket. A colleague told me later that the weather had been like this all summer.

I took a red double decker bus to work and got there in 25 minutes. The working day was very productive. I went for dinner with a colleague, and after I got back to the hotel I went for a run to the river, crossing the Thames over the Millennium bridge, very cool.
