I would say Day 2 was a win just based on the fact that I’m still awake tonight! After crashing early yesterday (to be fair, I hadn’t really slept for over 30 hours), I’m happy to be awake and writing this post around 1030p. To hell with you, jetlag! The weather was a bit cooler […]

We have arrived in Amsterdam! But you already knew that, didn’t you? After finding the way to our apartment, we got settled in a bit, took some much-needed showers, and went out to explore the city. Given how tired we were from the flight, we didn’t do anything too heavy – mostly got the lay […]
