The big trip (24th Sep - 2nd Oct)

Post by Boris »

Every time I go to the Dam I’m always disappointed, not by the city itself you understand, it just seems that no sooner as I arrive it’s time to leave again (Probably something to do with the enormous amount of weed I seem to get through). Well this time I’m going do it in style, me and my other half have just booked 8 nights in a nice apartment just off Leidseplein, I booked this through Citymundo.com, they seem pretty good and the price is quite reasonable. Looking at the map I think Dolphins will be my first port of call, I hear the White Dolphin is a top smoke.
Not going spend all 8 days in the coffee shops though, I like to consider myself as having a little bit of culture, hopefully we’re going to take a day trip to The Hague to visit the Escher museum, anybody been here?
Anyway, the apartment has Wi-Fi so I plan on making a few posts to let you all know how it’s going.

Take care


Blessed are the cheesemakers

Yep, go to the Escher, and while you're there also go to the Mauritshuis and see The Girl With the Pearl Earing, among other neat stuffs. There's a large square to the Southeast with many cafes for a nice coffee and whatnot.

The Dolphins is a nice place.

Have a great trip,
chuck.
