The Layover: Amsterdam

Smooth flight to Amsterdam got us in at 10a local. We both managed about two hours sleep on the flight, so we allowed ourselves another two hours sleep at the hotel. We headed into the city about 1p and grabbed some cheese and bacon pancakes. And a Heineken of course.

We toured the Anne Frank huis next. Despite a number of trips to Amsterdam, I’d never been. We walked the city, grabbed some dinner, and got back to the hotel a bit after 9p. We both slept a solid 10 hours and feel pretty well adjusted to the time change this morning. We’re off to the airport for a 11a flight to Nairobi that gets us in a bit before 9p. I think it’s one more time zone to the east. We overnight in an airport hotel, then start the first safari.
