The Dutchie's in Holland



Well, we managed to take a 4 hours train from Paris to Amsterdam. Arriving with no idea which direction our friends lived, we gave the address to the taxi and 35 Euros later, we were there......Marlooes and Marleen are 2 great volleyball players we met last year in the Korea Exhibition event. We have kept in touch ever since for occasions like this.....THIS, meaning, down time in Europe and training needed! They welcomed us and it has been a cozy little place ever since.
We spent all yesterday training in the am and touring in the pm.....it was Steve's 29th birthday, so we dropped off in a little Italian restaurant to celebrate. Good times. We managed to spend at least 1.5 hours out of the pouring rain. Yes, it is pouring here, but thankfully, warm. Amsterdam is great. Cheers!
