Den Haag

So I'm sitting at a normal American keyboard and merrily typing as fast
as I please in Den Haag (The Hague). I'm kind of in a slightly sketchy
bar near the hostel...everyone else in here is male, but there's still
tons of daylight left so oh well. I just got in, and my plan tonight is
to read, relax, sleep, sleep, sleep and journal a bit. I left Sara
earlier this afternoon in Brussels. It was really great to see her, and
we had a lot of fun. Brussels is a really beautiful city, the people
are really nice and the chocolate is amazing. We went to the European
Parliment and took a tour today. Lots of people in suits, but we got to
see a committee in session. Pretty interesting and pretty slow going,
even with simultaneous translations in 20+ languages. Both of us are
glad we're not Members of the European Parliment.

Anyway, I am doing well though I am tired. Tomorrow, I'll walk around
town a bit; I think there is a Vermeer museum I want to check out and
then I go to Amsterdam to meet up with Betsy's former Regent roommate.
I'll stay with her until Saturday morning.
