We're Here!

It is 12:15pm in the Netherlands, we arrived about 3 hours ago and have nearly been awake for 24 hours now (if we can manage to stay awake for 3 more hours). Therefore understand that I am writing this post in a semi-conscious state, so hopefully it makes sense! We had an awesome flight, super smooth and three seats to ourselves! We got really lucky with the extra seat, because the flight was virtually full, it was very nice to have the extra space though.

We did not really sleep at all on the flight, it was kinda loud on board since it was the daytime for everyone still. We had two guys behind us, who I kid you not, talked the ENTIRE time....I did not think it possible for two men (or anyone for that matter) to carry on a conversation for 9 hours straight. It was impressive and rather amusing at times to say the least.

We are staying at my (Megan) dad's cousin's house in Den Hague and today will probably stick around their neighbourhood and then tomorrow they have offered their bikes to us so we are planning on biking into downtown Hague and maybe elsewhere depending what we find. It will be fun to explore some more and on bikes no less, we are excited.

After the weekend we will hopefully be looking into finding a place to rent and get more settled in, before we plan what is next on the agenda. We will keep you all updated on how that search goes:)

Cheers!
