Today is the second of three whole days here, and we moved from the hostel to the hotel this morning - it was a huge effort to get out of bed to check out.
Yesterday morning at breakfast we bumped into Andy and Zara and it turned out they were in the same hostel as us, so that was good. We went to the Rijksmuseum (I'm not quite sure how to spell it) yesterday morning which was good. And then we went shopping for hats (because it's really cold). I got a bag from the place that I bought a bag last time I was here, and it is also stripey and colourful. We wandered along towards the red light district and found a funky little cafe there. Aso I bought two pairs of gloves.
Tomorrow we are going to the Van Gogh Museum.
We are just waiting for Andy and Zara at the moment and then we are off to the Heineken Experience (brewery tour, including 3 pints of the stuff) (but it doesn't look like that is going to happen, we will just have to do that tomorrow, then).
Topday has been incredibly lazy, but we did find a really cool cafe where we had a late lunch. We sat upstairs which overlooked the rest of the cafe and the celing wasn't quite high enough to stand up. It was very cosy.
It is raining at the moment, and still pretty cold but I am wrapped up well. There have been a few sunny moments where I have been able to take photos of the canals looking pretty. I really should have brought my umbrella with me. I hope the weather is this miserable in Bristol (!).
