John lands

The flying fox near the camp ground
Spent the morning on a flying fox near the camp. Met two fabulous guys and their hyperactive dogs who got super excited when the boys flied on the flying fox.

Had beautiful sandwiches at the airport, then waited in the crowd near the magic doors for John to turn up. The flight was good no problems. He did not sleep too much as he was worried about getting through the flight with no stomach upsets.

Haarlem
Went to Haarlem for the afternoon. What a nice introduction to the place, apart from accidentally walking past the small red light street. Every part of town is beautiful.

At the campground, we'd hired a canvas one with 4 bunk beds. The boys slept toe to toe and by miracle it worked.

The next day we walked around Amsterdam trying to find bikes to rent. Finally got some, nearly crashing around, bells ringing. All riders get peed off as we go on the wrong side of the path, the boys wobble around etc. Ollie sticks to the left stopping motorbikes from overtaking and stopping the oncoming traffic.

Haarlem
After rolling through so many 4 fours, the guy told us after that you give way to the right. Wished I'd known.

Dinner is fried rice and chicken. John is surviving.
