Hurray, hurray, it's a holi-holiday! is what Boney-M sung in times gone by. But you wouldn't say that from the Dutch summer weather we've been having. When I look outside, all I see is the tops of an endless stream of umbrellas, sheltering shivering tourists underneath them.
Daniel was still out for part of the day with a Lithuanian t.A.T.u. friend of his, and this girl was actually over at my place late last night for some drinks with Daniel, while I was sitting at my desk pretending not to be there. She was probably one of the most annoying people I've had in my house in the year (and a bit) that I've lived here. Quite young but very self confident and quite dramatic in expressions and with a loud voice. When I'd had enough I made it quite clear that I wanted to go to bed and that's when Daniel suggested going out for more drinks. This was after 1am, mind you. Today Daniel spent a big part of the day again with the girl after she's lost her passport. She made it through customs at the airport though with some emergency documentation.
In the evening - Daniel's last evening in Amsterdam this time - I treated him to a Thai meal in the same restaurant we'd gone to on his first night here. Different table, different food, but still good, and after nearly four pretty intense weeks. An ice cream on Nieuwmarkt afterwards, and that concluded the evening. We were both tired and returned home.
