A note to hotels

Here's a note to hotels, in line with my rant regarding offering free wireless.

coffee and tea equipment, including kettles, is not something that should be excluded from a hotel. It especially shouldn't then be offered back to customers for a 5EUR a day fee. Get fucking real. For 5 EUR, I could buy at least 2 real coffees. It's just fucking tight.


I'm looking at you, Mercure Arthur Frommer. Loss of a quarter of the room space due to slanting roof, then you want to charge me for a fucking kettle?

Utrecht and Anne Frank

We had originally planned to go to Muidersloot on one of our days, but it seemed a bit of a hassle to get there, and only see a castle. Hassle vs reward and all that. So instead, we went to Utrecht on a whim.

Amsterdam

After a late night and sleeping in, we decided to do a walking tour of Amsterdam, wandering around the canals, looking at the buildings, and general touristy stuff that people do.
