Amsterdam Day 1

Back in Amsterdam, this really lovely, naughty wonderful city.

Kind of mixed emotions this time as we took ground at Shiphol Airport.

Passed the bars I have some nice memories from and that was kind of hard.

Joined the hotel shuttle bus, and just realized that it seems that whole Scandinavia is down here.

I am truly a lucky bastard having this challenging job and get this opportunities to go to different conferences. I cant wait to get back home and tell my colleagues about the content of the conference. It will be really exiting.

Entered the hotel in RAI area and that is definately not the red light district area... but on the other hand, this is business no pleasure trip. But anyway, I have a nice view from my window, two great highways and world trade centre, not to bad.

I was extremely tired after the flight, and I guess i got some help by the white wine I ordered. As the captain warned for some turbulens it was an easy choice, and i almost just drank everything in two drinks. And almost fell asleep, sweet dreams.

So, with red cheeks I fell of the plane ... in to the hotel, and down to the bar in the hotel. Hungry as a wolf I ordered some food which took a long time to get... almost fell a sleep in the bar as well wail waiting,,.ate like crazy .. and as I mention wolves... there are a lot of them here I can tell.... at the moment I love my hotel room.

Time for bed now, and I will be the first one in the line to sign up tommorow at the conference and hopefully be waked up by my telephone. I truly hope so.
Good night and love from here.
