FIRST DAY IN AMSTERDAM
WINNIE'S HOUSE
MARIANNA IN AMSTERDAMHey friends,
I arrived in Amsterdam yesterday afternoon. Ken had put me on the train in Bussum Zuid, and I arrived in Amsterdam at 3 pm. Winnie was waiting for me by the taxi stand. The railway station is in a mess, they are doing renovations. I could hardly recognise it.
I am now in an internet cafe near " Het Leidseplein" as her internet is dial up. That is 3 min walk from Winnie.
The weather is beautiful and warm and I only have 2 days here so I haven't got a lot of time to work on putting photos on. But I have taken a lot already.
Winnie and I have talked a lot and watched the soccer last night. We will watch an other match tonight. It is getting more exciting.
she also took me to a nice place for dinner,and took me to one of her favorite pubs, " De Pieper".
The city is full of life and vibrant and the colours are georgeous with the green trees by the canals.
This afternoon we are going to do the tourist thing, a canal tour.
I slept well last night, I am sleeping on an air matrass in Maarten's old room.
I have spoken to Maarten 2x so yes, we will meet in Paris, which is great.
So now I am going outside, it is too nice to sit here and see all the people walking outside.
Friday I am going to Den Helder in the train, and Mercy Manuel will pick me up, she is a friend from my nursing days. I will stay with her till Monday morning and then it 's off to Voorschoten, yeah, my old hometown!!!!
I am very happy to be back in Holland!!!!
Cheers from Marianne.

Hi Marianne, Je komt steeds dichter bij Voorschoten! Wat heb je al veel gezien overal en wat een mooie foto's!! Laat je nog weten met welke trein je aankomt en hoe laat in Voorschoten of Leiden? Wij komen je afhalen natuurlijk.
Alvast heel veel groeten,
Je ouwe buurvrouw, Annie
Hoi Marianne
Leuk te lezen dat je het weer naar je zin hebt.
Ik ben nog wat van je tegengekomen in de wasmand...hahahahaha. Een plastic tasje met ondergoed van jou.
Helemaal niet meer aangedacht.
Tot horens
Liefs Elly
