A car bomb and a giant tub with a towel heater. 💛💛💛
Hi-Ho, Hi-Ho, it’s off to Delft we go.
With a touch of regret, we packed up, said goodbye to Milo, Fiona and our new friend Heinrich, and moved out of our wharf cellar. We hopped a train to Rotterdam and found another to Delft. What an adorable town. It was market day and the streets were bustling. We found an adorable hotel and …
Okay, NOW Marco got a tattoo!
We had an amazing dinner at an Italian restaurant run by a true Italian. Soooo yummy. On our walk to the restaurant, we were in the path of the Friday night disco rollerblading club. Then, we receive a call that our new tattoo artist and friend Chris, was available. So off we went. We stumbled …

Wharf Cellar and Skee ball.
I have been deceiving Marco on our lodging plans for our first three nights. I told him we were staying at a hostel. In fact, I booked an original Utrecht Wharf Cellar. These wharf cellars are around 750 years old. Many of them have been renovated into restaurants and homes. They sit right on a …
French fries and herring 🤮
So, if you don't already know, Marco hasn't eaten a French fry in months in preparation for this trip. They serve fries with globs of mayonnaise on top 🤮. Also, he has watched every YouTube video of street herring vendors and the locals and tourists shoving a herring down their mouth 🤮. He has been …
