Trains and Where Where You, Yesterday?
From Michelle, Rushing Around Like a Headless Chicken in Rotterdam...
Okiday. Bizzy day today, so little short entry from me because, as you all know, multitasking is just not me :-)
Why am I dashing around like a headless chicken?
Well...
Teenager #1 is off to the UK tomorrow to spend a month with my family and I'm getting his "stuff" ready to pack...
We have to be on the 7am train to Amsterdam's Schiphol airport tomorrow morning, which means we have to get up at a horribly early time, but with my track record on Trouble with Transport and Travel I am not taking bets on whether (a) there will be a general transport strike involving us having to take a $$$ expensive cab to the airport, (b) the train will be delayed because of a cow on the tracks (did that one, got the T-shirt), (c) there will be a massive electrical failure affecting the whole train system (I have that particular T-shirt, too), or (d) we arrive at the airport and discover that he is on standby (okay, yes. I. Have. That. T-shirt. Too. Nuff said...)
Also, my mother-in-law arrives for a visit tomorrow night. Goody, I have to meet her at the airport and therefore double the possibilty for transport problems...
I'll keep you posted.
In the meantime, where were you yesterday?
Obviously, I was here... (Go, Bob, you rock.)
20 years ago I was here... (Bob was rocking back then, too...)
I'll be back on Thursday with more about the concerts!
