We visited Anne Frank House Museum this morning – in the rain – and then swung by Wok To Walk for a late lunch. We had a nap in the afternoon and then headed to the show. And it was a fun one. The crowd and the band always seem to have a much higher energy level here compared to any where else I’ve seen them.

Trevor C took a lot of awesome pictures, and our video and audio recordings look good at first review.

01: Yer Not The Ocean
02: My Music At Work
03: Grace, Too
04: It’s A Good Life If You Don’t Weaken

Today was another travel day. The train trip from Groningen was much easier this time as we only needed to change once… until we got to the change station. We got on the train that was headed for Amsterdam but after about 5 minutes the conductor made an announcement in Dutch and everyone, except us, got off the train. I went to find a staffer and they said that there was an accident so we had to go take a different train to Utrecht and then transfer for Amsterdam. Sadly this info came just as the train we were on was about to leave… so we rode it ahead another stop, and then rode it back to where we were. All told it took an extra hour and a half to get back to Amsterdam.

The afternoon was spent exploring the city and enjoying some pints.

The afternoon activities crossed into the evening and before we knew it it was time for sleep. On the way back to the hostel Dave and Trevor had a run in with the Police. Actually, the Police ran into Dave and Trevor. A Police car passed us and then Dave and Trever stepped out to crossed the street. Trevor is blind and Dave was guiding him. All of a sudden the cop car puts it in reverse and backs into them at full speed knocking them both flying. The impact broke the tail light of the car and scratched up the paint. Both guys seem to be OK at this point. (I’ll post some pics when I get them uploaded.)

After the accident we made out way back to the hostel and called it a night.

Today is a travel day. Up at 3:15am, catch the 4:00am train to Gatwick, and then a 6:45 flight to Amsterdam. Once on the ground we boarded a train for Amersfoot, changed trains there and headed to Deventer. Another change of trains and we were bound for Zwolle. A final change in Zwolle and we were on our way to Groningen. The changes between trains required us to be quick on our feet as the longest changeover time was just 5 minutes!

The trains were all packed so we ended up standing in the aisle, surrounded by our bags – not fun for three hours, especialy after the late night and early morning we’d just experienced.

We’re now in Groningen at our hotel. The weather is great and the city looks wonderful but we are too tired to explore it right now. Showers and naps are the next items on our agendas.
