With so much to do each day it's becoming difficult to find the time for long-winded posts. Here's a brief recap of today... I woke up at a reasonable hour because today was my first day of Dutch Culture and Language class. After getting dressed I went to our suite's lounge and boiled water on our hotplate for the oatmeal and tea that I had bought the day before. I'll spare you the details of class. However, outside of our classrooms, which for the record made a far too economical use of space, today was very productive. I now have a Dutch phone (the number for which is +31 0686156565) and a Dutch bank account at ING. We wrapped up the day with a summer school dinner at a Dutch pancake house. If you're wondering about dutch pancakes, apparently some are prepared just as in the US, but from what I experienced, they are between a swedish pancake, a dutch baby, and a crepe with tastes ranging from sweet to savory.
Just as the bipolar weather here began with heavy rain and ended with sun and blue skies, today was filled with ups and downs, but settled into something very nice.
