Jetlagged in Amsterdam

April 9, 2008 - Amsterdam, Netherlands

SUSAN: WooHoo! We're in Amsterdam. Very cooel. Uuumm...where to begin? As soon as we landed, this land felt, well, different. We knew we has entered a very special land known as the....Netherlands. Euro-riffic.

DAVE: Susan and I have had a bit of trouble during the last couple of days coping with the change in time zones and the general malaise that comes with a 9 hour trans-Atlantic flight. But, then again, as we wander the streets, drifting in and out of trippy stores and coffee shops, we feel as though we blend in seamlessly with the crowd.

SUSAN: Perhaps it's the psychadelic second-hand clothes we've brought to keep us warm which we are planning to discard before we depart for the heat of India.

DAVE: Perhaps it's the psychadelic second-hand smoke...I could be wrong about being jet-lagged. Anyway, off to our night tour of the red light district.  Dank!

Hi, Captain! The winds are favorable, the sails are full. I can feel the excitement of the journey and most of all the love of it. There are many things about Europe that take your heart gently and hold it..until you are back. I know you will be back!Watch your crew, no mutiny on your ship! Zina!

You are my favourite travelers. Angie called to say she wasn't in town when the volcano blew, so she's fine. But Lynne (her sister)got burned pretty badly. Anyway, not to spoil the mood, but I thought you'd want to know. Be safe.

Captain, I feel fuzzy.. Is this a symptom of what? I submited a few comments yesterday and hopelessly lost them. Where are them? Flying over Goa beaches.. Anyway, I praised your sense of humour commenting your pictures. Captain, have a good rest in a paradise by the sea, watch over your crew, Love.Z.
