Random Adventures...: Rotterdam

Keeping Rotterdam Real...

So I've spent the last few days here in Rotterdam with the Kyme which has been loads of fun although she has since abandoned me to go on a business trip to Miami! How sad...

It was decided we would get a car and drive around so that is what we did! We went to De Hoge Veluwe, which turned out (I had no idea where we were going!) to be a national park! We hired bikes and cycled around which was fun although we did get a tad lost..hehe...AND in the middle of the park is the Koller-Muller museum so we had a look through that! So there are some photos of that adventure bellow!! (They are Kim's photos -- thanks mate!!)

We also drove along the longest dyke in the Netherlands, experienced a high quality dutch traffic jam, went to watch Kim play soccer, had dinner/drinks with some of Kim's friends, played guitar hero, wandered through the markets, went to the opening of the canal on which Rotterdam sits on -- we went right on dusk and it was quite the pretty!

So Kim left for Miami today and I went up to Den Haag and to the Mauritshuis to see Vermeer's Girl With The Pearl Earring. It was raining though which took a bit of the fun out of wandering around the city! There was a protest on, Ive no idea what they were protesting...I was being amused by it until the riot police turned up and i figured it was time to high-tail it out of there!! haha, SO I headed to Delft which was amazingly pretty with all its canals and old buildings! =)

This is Kim and I in the reflection of a statue..
