Goedendag from Zeist in the Netherlands...

Quick post to say that I am currently visiting Stephen's Opa and Oma in Zeist, which is about an hour from Amsterdam. Today we went to Utrecht, which is an old Dutch city, and I climbed the Dom Tower (all 465 stairs or 95m of it), reminding me once again about how much I hate heights. Utrecht's other claim to fame is that the creator of Miffy is from there, so I bought a very touristy Dutch clog with a picture of Miffy on the front (turned into a moneybox).

Tomorrow morning I am visiting Amsterdam to see Anne Frank House, before catching a night train to Copenhagen.
