Hey Family!

I'm safe and sound in Amsterdam, and dodged into this internet cafe to escape the threatening rain. I was faced with the daunting 9 hour layover, so I followed the lemmings route into the city, desperate to find a museum or bookstore or something to keep me occupied till my flight leaves this evening. I quickly gave up on the notion of renting a bicycle -- this town takes bicycling seriously; I might as well enter the grand prix.

So, all I've accomplished so far is getting further and further lost, wandering on foot within the famous 'red light' district, which looks pretty banal in daylight :-)

Will try to email tomorrow from Vienna!

Love you all,



Tory
