Relaxing in Rotterdam

---

Hi all..

I arrived in Rotterdam last week, in time to be with my Aunt while my Uncle had his one day stay in the Hospital for treatment. Rotterdam is a very new city as so much was bombed in the war, but it sure is a wonderful city, and so many of the buildings are really unique..

Uncle Mike is going amazingly well. We picked him up at the hospital and walked back to the hotel. He has been walking more in Rotterdam than the last 2 months in Vancouver. We took a boat tour of the Harbour, and have been wandering around, finding awesome restaurants and pubs.. he is just doing great.. I am so glad I stopped in.

The people in Holland are so friendly I couldn't beleive it.. I went into Den Haag on Monday to get a Visa for India.. Well i had the address right but there are 2 streets with that name so I had to go to another part of town. The man who explained that me then went inside his business, got me the bus number, the direction I had to be going, and the stop I needed to get off at.. I was amazed at how helpful everyone was..

My cousins arrived on Tuesday and so now we are again having a small family reunion, this time in Holland.. Haha..

the other day we took the tram to the old part of town.. it was nice to walk around there. We then wanted to find a place for lunch. well leave it to my cousin Bob to find the only brewery in all of Rotterdam to have lunch in. It was really good food and the beer was great too. haha

I am off to Prague as soon as the Indian Embassy will give me a Visa.

Take Care.
