Ha!
Yes I do like walking and I do walk fast!
Nevertheless, happy to moderate my pace and ambitions to fit in.

Wednesday sounds like a good plan. I'll pencil it onto the schedule.

Objectives could include Escher, as suggested by AzLaker, and maybe Cremers? Assuming we started from Den Haag Centraal, that could be made into a short circuit. Doesn't look very far on the map but we can look into distances, tram options and so on closer to the time as a plan develops.

Incidentally, talking of Cremers, if you look on their ACD Page, scroll down to the map and click the Streetview button, you should see a big Canadian flag outside!

Very appropriate!

Sounds great ..I,ll see if I can dig up a Canadian T-shirt

Why don’t we do the unthinkable, get up a bit earlier on Wednesday and set off for the Hague trip at around 11.30?

Hear ya Smirks getting Lemming up before noon will be hard ,but ya if we get going early we could stop Harlem or one of the towns on way back

Delft & Leiden are definitely recommendable and on the same line. You guys could start in Delft, have a brief stroll about. Hit Den Haag do some coffeeshopping around town, see the Escher exhibit, get on the train back - stopover at Leiden hopefully just in time or well after the 17:00 opening time for coffeeshops there, check out High Society - one of the better non-Mokum shops in the country in my experience.

[macky]

That sounds good Nug,s ,been trying to get to high society CS but always in Lieden to early in the day.
Lemming I guess you pick time to meet at Voyagers 11 or 1130 ,you decide

[Lemming]

Absolutely unthinkable!!
Great to hear that you're thinking of joining us for The Hague, Smirks.
I was thinking maybe meet at Voyagers around 12 and head off about 1.
I guess we could bring that forward a bit but, speaking for myself, I'll be arriving on Tuesday evening and likely vape/smoke myself unconscious that night. As Macky says, I'm not an early riser at the best of times but especially not after a first-night-in-Amsterdam session.

Of course we could meet in a coffeeshop in The Hague or Delft if you guys want to head off early.
In fact Macky will probably be in Voyagers around 8am, decide nobody else is coming, and head off. He'll be back from The Hague by the time I get to Voyagers!

Incidentally, Delft is beyond The Hague, on the way to Rotterdam. I've never been there so would be definitely be up for a visit. I have been to Leiden, a long time ago. Stopping there on the way back, once the coffeeshops open, sounds like an excellent plan. If we're going to Haarlem on the Sunday then it's less important to include that on Wednesday.

[macky]

It is a bit like Christmas when I,m there ,so like a kid I usually have nose against the glass at Barny,s or anther CS around 7am. Do like first joint of the day .Hence why I like naps ,can have first joint of the day a few times But Ya Lem go to Delft first sound about right . Noon is fine and 1ish Train
We would like to be in Lieden in the evening any way and there,s a few nice places to eat there too.

[Kermit]

Looking forward to this so much, work is killer busy at the moment so a well earned holiday is needed. Fingers crossed for some of that weather from last year.

I thought every day was 420 for you young man

[hestia]

Hi all
Delf !! I've always wanted to go there , So count me in !!
I can tell you that I can hardly wait to get there and see you all.

[Willjay]

I won’t be there this year but have been to Delft a couple of times, there’s two Delftware factory’s in Town one walking distance from the center, look for the Delft tiles decorating the over Pass with the one of Einstine. The other one out side of the center has a better tour (IMO) and the less expensive gift shop. If Delftware and inexpensive can be used to describe each other
