my first trip to Amsterdam

[Willjay]

Last time I flew out of Newark the TSA guy gave me a old man pass I did not have to take off shoes, coat, or belt just threw my carry on on the machine and was scanned my wife got one as my caregiver

You got that half-pound through ok then?

Was on the way unless your referring to the titanium that holds my back together

but we are, especially patrons from the usa, more likely to TIP . Another reason is they don’t want to argue

HA that explains it, even tho I'm not from the USA, I was wearing my Green bay packers hat all the time and my English is pretty good. I bet they where smelling tips!

So your a “Cheese Head” cool

nice write up - sounds like you had a great first trip!

I loved the cheese class - did it probably 10 years ago
actually was fascinated by the 100 year old broken down shed that the cheese was cured in
i had imagined this clean, shiney place...but no a wooden shed with holes in the walls
otherwise alot of nothing as you said...
but the cheese!
omg the nuanced differences of taste and texture of the cheese as it aged
I thought it was so cool to taste the progression of aging
(did the wine pairing class)
so for those who enjoy such things - go for it!
