Hallo allemaal, Woensdag 16 juni vertrekken wij, Ludmilla en ik, om 14:10, naar Miami. Via deze site hoop ik terplekke via een laptop verslag te kunnen doen en foto's te laten zien. Eventueel kan je via het knopje 'Email Alert' een alarmpje aanzetten zodat je automatisch een email krijgt als wij iets toevoegen aan de site! Ook kan je via een 'comment' reageren op wat wij geschreven hebben. Dat komt dan onder onze tekst te staan. Stel dat ik helemaal geen internet vindt daar dan houdt alles natuurlijk op, maar dat lijkt me onwaarschijnlijk :-))) Groetjes, Ramon ... read more

Erik, mum and I went to visit Erik’s parents in Brussels and Erik’s dad kindly agreed to drive us to Amsterdam. It was a very cold and grey day, not ideal for sightseeing and perhaps for this reason we haven’t felt in love with Amsterdam. We have only spend a day there doing the usual tourist routes, and a few hours driving and visiting another neighbour city, which I cannot recall the name. ... read more

I started yesterday by heading to the Anne Frank Haus early as i had been instructed to do, i went at 9 am when it opened. The mueum was really powerful, laid out exactly as it had been in 1943. As you are walking on the second floor you can really hear the footsteps above you. The actual hiding place is not big, but not as tiny as i imagined it. although after 3 years i can it probobly started to get quite closterphobic. The saddest part is how close to liberation Anne and her sister died... Walked around the canals a bit diggesting the info, then went to get lunch. i love a town where one of the sandwich's being offered, for a E1.90 is Tartaar. Yup tatar, my favorite way to eat a steak. ... read more

So I got the last train for the night train from Copenhagen to Duisburg Germany. (i have not been able to locate it on a map, my best guess is that it is near Dusseldorf and not too far from Colonge). The seat happened to be in a 6 person smoking cabin... that did not have beds. The 3 Russian-Swedes to my left and across were quite drunk... well 2 were, and the 3rd was ok, not nearly as sketchy as his friends. To my right were a pair of 18 year old Danish boys en route to Amsterdam. One was a chain smoker, but a nice guy, the other was silent ansd stayed up reading all night. Two of the russians passed out immediately and the one sitting next to the not sketchy one fell ... read more
