My Travel
The flight was a lot shorter than I had expected due to the fair amount of sleep I was able to get. I was quite surprised. I would like to thank the wrap-around-the-head-of-the-seat contraption for the amount of sleep I had. I watched Constantine at the beginning of the flight and read some Harry Potter. I dozed in and out on the flight from London-Heathrow to Amsterdam. I attempted to read but instead found my heading bobbing forward an back. Yes, I was one of those people you laugh at whose head falls forward as they fall asleep and wake themselves up. So, I didn't read much on that flight.
After landing in Amsterdam, I was greeted by a group of five. We had coffee and tea. I was given a very surprising gift from Richard, a mobile. I was not expecting this at all! My first meal in the Netherlands was eaten at the airport. Burger King. Nick and Rose were excited. Yes, it tastes the same. I had some friesaus with my fries. (I may have spelled that incorrectly.) After lunch, we caught a train.
We had to change trains at one spot. Nick was rolling around one of my suitcases and was ahead of us. He was stopped by a man and woman. We approached them. They asked if there were any drugs in the suitcase. After discovering it was mine, they asked me. To be safe, a dog was brought over to sniff my suitcase. The dog sniffed and laid down next to my bag. They let us board the train. We were in a hurry because we did not want to miss it. After getting on the train, we discovered we had a 20 minute wait. Nick said we could pass the time by smoking the weed in my bag.
After arriving home, I called my mother to say hello. Then, I went to my room to go through my baggage. A couple of things were moved around due to an inspection. I found a card in my suitcase from Monique. (Upon departure, I was able to wave to her from my window while she stood on the tar.) I found another card in my backpack from my mom. I finally took a much needed shower. I was quite greasy. I laid in bed and read some more Harry Potter until falling asleep. I plan to finish this tonight. I awoke around 10:00 am. Soon, I will go to the store and then go to see Rose go horseback riding.
