Netherlands Part I

I will expand on some of these things later but here are some things that come to mind when I think about the first third of this tour:

Two great days in Amsterdam. We were very lost at one point and walked for over 8 hours. Watch out for the traffic in Amsterdam lots of trams, buses, cars & bikes.

Amazing food! I bought a wedge of cheese in Deventer which tasted great but made my room smell like a sewer. Stinky, stinky cheese

Great tour manager, Karen. She has been fantastic.

Aaron has been blending in very well. Played the first show with him ever in Hoorn.

Everyone has been very kind and generous.

My wife and I bought what we thought was red pepper paste for bread. We knew something was wrong right away. The tour manager later informed us what we had eaten was ground raw beef. I wish I could read Dutch!

We played in an old monastery after the Flamenco dancers finished upstairs. Interesting place.

The clock I bought is consistently 1 hour fast no matter how many times I set it. I really wish I could read Dutch!

Kevn is sounding great and the band has been having a blast.

I will reveal more after Queensday in Amsterdam.
