It’s 1:02 PM and it got cloudy again but no rain so hopefully the weather is right there people selling all kinds of wears and loud music so we’re gonna go over to Neighbors hang out with them.

Friday, April 26: Trip to Rijks Museum , Nap and Party

Today I woke up tired at 8:15 AM. I got up for my museum appointment

 at the Rijks Museum I had to walk about 10 to 13 minutes to the central station where all the trains and buses run through. I was running late, but Bob said it didn’t

 really matter that much. I brought my pass and my museum card with me. Man that museum is ginormous is so huge and 

really cool it’s got all kinds of 16th and 17th century all the way up to the present other furniture and accoutrements that they

 had some of the paintings in the early times are very realistic on site photographs. Then later on in the 19th and 20th century that were a lot more impressionist

 including van Gogh of course. I didn’t go to the top floor because by that time I was pretty good fatigue so I decided 
to wander about and head towards the butt, trolley stop and there are a couple souvenir stores and places to eat and I couldn’t decide

 so I just had a thing of fries and Coke and right near the van Gogh museum which I’ll have to go some other point. I had a nice walk. it was 
a really pleasant walk since it was sunny outside for the first time since I’ve been here well the sun was out often on two days ago, of course. Anyhow,  with two side streets and more touristy area, but it was really cool side streets and alleys and just Opia of stimulation for the eyes and ears. I really enjoyed it took a lot of pictures and videos. I didn’t get back to Bob and Bob was resting so I decided it would be a good time for a nap and boy nap. I think I nap for about. I don’t know at least four hours  and I need every single bit of it. I think I’m still catching up on sleep from the flight and just not going to bed early enough. Bob and I got caught up in this series about the Cold War and up to the present. It was really well done. It was on Netflix. I believe we finished the series . Anyhow, I got up and Bob was doing some of his work. It’s now 7:30 PM. We’re gonna be leaving in about 10 minutes to go to his friends house so I’m trying to catch up on all matter of blogging and pictures and stuff like that. It’s pretty nice outside. I sit in this chair that I like because it’s right next to the charging station and I get a nice view of the outdoors. my went to the party and it was pretty cool. People really nice and it was pretty cool crowd. It wasn’t a huge party. It was a pretty mellow adult party. After we stayed there till 10 we walked around the party was really gearing up outdoors. we ran into this one section they have different bands playing in this one section it was just out of control. It was dancing to Euro music and a big ass mural mural but edifice of the king and his wife and had streamers and fireworks and people just going nuts like it was 1999 and New Year’s and shit , we got into it. We stayed up pretty damn late. It was a good time. It was like but I’m taking it all in. I recorded it and get it down to seven minutes. I have a total of at least 25 minutes, but I can’t put that on any kind of YouTube and nobody’s gonna listen to A for 25 minutes, but it was an experience. I won’t forget anytime soon. 

Thursday, April 25: 1st Full Day in Amsterdam

I woke up this morning after sleeping like a baby which I really 

needed after yesterday. That bed has a nice firm mattress and I was lucky to Bob computer control 
center lights went off and I was able 

to sleep. I got up at 8 AM or 8:15 AM so I could get ready to eat breakfast take a shower and go to the Anne Frank house they 
schedule my appointment. My appointment was scheduled for 10 AM, it’s about 12 minute walk from Bob 
to the Anne Frank house. It’s very convenient for

 sure On the way there, i’m at two nice women from Richmond, Virginia. Google maps had me very confused which turn I take and I just followed them to the place. I got there on time

 and I hung out with them while in the museum and oh my God that is the detail is kind of hard to fathom.is the original place where she had for two years with

 her family and friends and they had all the diaries and short stories 

that she wrote and the experiences while she was hiding. It’s really hard to fathom. You

 just have to go there. Anyhow, I got back in. Bob had to take care of some

 business so I caught up with my blogging. Specifically yesterday‘s 

blog posting. I then talked to Larry and also talked to Mary by 

voice and by video WhatsApp works. And I took a walk and he got an extra key 

from one of his friends so I have a copy of the key in the house

 which God forbid if I lose would cost €100, don’t plan to do that. We’re going 

to go to 3️⃣ museums today. The first one we visited was called the 

Embassy of the Free Mind. That was really, very interesting. I must say. The 

second meeting we went to was called Museum of the canals.  It 

explored the history of Amsterdam and how the canals were conceived, and how the city kept growing and growing, and making rings around the center of the city.

 Pretty amazing engineering that went on in creating the city. They had to pile drive, massive polls into the ground, practically by hand, like 30 guys had to use

 this machine to bang the wood into the ground. It’s engineering

 and I can’t really understand or conceive at this point. Really cool multimedia 

to go along with it, including virtual people living inside

 a house from back in the day and it looked really real. There were AI and virtual

 reality can really enhance inexperience. It truly is a double 

edge short all that technology that’s for sure.  oh news of reality The New York Supreme Court over through

 Harvey Weinstein‘s conviction since they brought up evidence from other crimes or other things he did that weren’t

 related to the conviction. Now some of Trump’s cronies want to use that as a way of getting Trump from under a convection. Amazing how wealthy people can just get away with stuff or technicalities what you call it by the best lawyers in town . It’s amazing when you go away all the weird stuff that goes on just for being away. It’s just how it feels mentally
