The Aerie

Slagboom!

Gawd, I'm exhausted. Jetlag and people phoning me up from the States at 11:30 p.m. and insomnia have combined to turn my eyeballs into crusty hot coals rotating in dry sockets. But for some reason time is just zooming past tonight, and its already 11:00 p.m. again. But I wanted to get my Rotterdam photos posted before time had it's way with the idea and I never got it posted.

I am glad I got out on Sunday to stroll around Rotterdam, although I was dying to find a place that would rent bicycles. You'd think a city literally crawling with bikes would have a used bike shop someplace, but none I could find! So I hoofed it all day, and it wasn't too bad walking.

Rotterdam wasn't as nice as Stockholm - it's more industrial and shabby - but its' still an attractive city. And I love the bike paths everywhere. Light-rail everywhere. Canals with boats everywhere. Subways and trains everywhere. I can get anyplace I need to get without a car.

Well I wanted to blog lots and lots, but time has just zipped away. So click on SLAGBOOM up above and enjoy my photos of Rotterdam, hopefully I'll have the energy to post more tomorrow....
