Planes, trains and taxis

So we had a delightful and very quick flight to Amsterdam. Not a lot of sleep, but a great documentary and a surprisingly good dinner.

This has to be the most elegant baggage claim I have ever seen!

Schipol airport is really lovely and very civilized. ATM’s, signs in English, and a train station WITHIN the airport. Not to break rank, we took first class seats on the 140 mile an hour Thalys train.

A little breakfast, a little countryside…. a taxi ride (by a frustrated race car driver), and we’re here in the lobby of the Amigo in Brussels.

The room should be ready shortly, we’re relaxing over the papers, a little nap, a little chocolate, and we’ll do a bit of sightseeing. Stay tuned.
