We have been having so much fun. It has been two weeks now, yet we feel like we just got here yesterday. The days seem to fly by, which Is only because we are having so much fun (and because the sun is only out for 7 hours a day).
I have learned alot about a new culture. Miranda and I have gotten some much needed time together. We have eaten things we don't understand. We survived the streets of Amsterdam on foot and on bicycle (Too bad about the bike though). We have learned to break into our own house when locked out (two times now). We have found favorite cafes and coffeeshops. I have developed an internal G.P.S. device for finding the nearest public urinals (sorry Miranda).
As the last two weeks flew by, I'm sure the next two will as well. On Monday, our good friends Jeff and Erin will be joining us in the Netherlands. Neither of them have been to this land before, and Miranda and I are looking forward to becoming official Amsterdam tour guides (O.A.Ts). Our good friend Jake was our O.A.T. last time, I could only hope to do half as good as he did. One thing Im looking forward to in particular, is having someone here to take pictures of us (I have been told this blog is lacking in that department). We are also psyched about our trips into Germany, Brussels, and elsewhere. Germany should be interesting, as I'm meeting up with distant relatives in Munich and near Düsseldorf. What if I encounter a bizarro German version of myself? I guess I will find out soon enough... Hey maybe Jeff and Erin can meet their bizarro European doppelgängers as well. Wish Jeff and Erin good luck.

Hey, great stuff! There's no 'e' in forward, capitalize Düsseldorf, and don't forget the umlaut.
Sorry Mrs. Halsey, I fixed it. The i-phone has many amazing capabilities, however I can't quite grasp the spell-check or the Umlaut features.
Heh I didn't even notice the misspelling I guess that's becuase I'm so good at it, it's just great to hear from you.
The trip to Germany sounds great I don't remember if we went there but I think we did,duh!
Will you be going by car, boat, bike?
Love, Gramie
We will be going to Düsseldorf by train most likely.
Good post.
