Planes, Trains, and Automobiles

Okay, fine, just trains.


Sander and I went South(ish) to a placed called Vlissingen this weekend.  It was a long train ride, but was well worth it! We did some exploring, ate some awesome food, climbed a bell tower, and were stalked by creepy people with a music cart.  We also ate at this really neat restaurant in Utrecht that used to be an old church.  Not only is the atmosphere super cool, the food was to die for and the beer was ridiculously cheap.



Our journey up to the bell tower.  It was a rather slow process for me in my flip flops.  I managed not to lose one until the very very very top.  Luckily someone was below and they threw it to me. 

The view from the top of the tower.  Notice the little windmill?  



This was the super cool restaurant.  Pictures really don't do it justice at all.  You have to go there to experience the awesomeness.  It doesn't look nearly as wicked as it is. 


In other random news, there was an earthquake last week.  It mostly went unnoticed, but surprisingly, I felt it!  I was reading on the couch when I felt something weird.  I thought I was going crazy, until I noticed my lamp shaking a bit.  I didn't even give it second thought until Sander mentioned it the next day.  Super cool.

  1. Super cool Kaylee! Devin was at a BBQ (like last tues) and was sitting next to a guy who said that there was a big metorite that was about to pass the earth and it leaves the suns atmosphere or something, and everytime it does (which is kinda often I think) there is an earthquake. He was expecting one on Friday....Was YOUR earthquake on friday?? There was one in Vancouver too eh! Anyway I love the posts. Keep em coming :)

  2. That's so crazy. It was on Thursday night. I guess it actually happened in Germany but could be felt in The Netherlands too. It was pretty cool.
