welll....it's been a fun few days. I think I'm feeling alot better now. Yesterday we went to Amsterdam. Oh my word god is that a huge city! Have I never seen so many people and water and bridges in my life HEHE! So much to do you honestly need more then 1 day there. I think I will go back a few more times. We went on a canal tour and saw all the beautiful bridges and buildings that are on the waters of amsterdam. It's so crazy that there are canals right through the streets of amsterdam. My family is so incredly nice to me making me feel at home. My dad's cousin Gerard reminds me sooooo much of dad it's insane. His mannerism and goofiness is so like my dad. Oh i miss my dad. I think he would be soo proud of me coming to Holland. Especially by myself. I think at some point Gerard is going to take me to the place where my dad had once lived. That will be great. Well here are some pictures of the last few days. Enjoy!!!!
