Tuesday 15 March – Back in Holland

Tuesday, March 15th, 2011

Except for the Metro breaking down in the China Town station in Washington D.C. and having to walk up and down the elevators with my huge backpack and two smaller backpacks to the Metrotown station, I had a good trip.   Jeannine drove me to Richmond, Va. to the Amtrak connection to Washington D.C. My favorite travel agent managed to get me in Business class again. Great service and I was able to stretch out but did not sleep much.  I arrived at 6 a.m. at Schiphol. Spring has sprung here as well. This last weekend in Chesapeake we had over 75 degrees (25 Centigrade).

As soon as I catch up on my jet lag and sleep deprivation I shall put a schedule together and make appointments with the newly discovered relatives and old friends here. And use the material here to complete the book I have been working on these last 4 months in Virginia.
