This week Amsterdam…

I have another whirlwind trip this week. Sunday afternoon I flew to Singapore for a two-day meeting on Monday/Tuesday. Tuesday night I flew from Singapore to Amsterdam. I am currently waiting for my bag… Hong Kong and other Asia airports have spoiled me! There is some problem getting the bags off the plane to the baggage area. We’ve been waiting now for 45 minutes. An announcement was just made that we’d have to wait another 10 – 15 minutes. Grrrr.

It’s early morning here (6:30 AM) and I have to get to my hotel, shower/change, then get to the office for meetings. I am here for about 36 hours before heading back to Hong Kong. Meanwhile, Tess is away, too, so the kids have been left in the very capable hands of Lita and De.

The latest news on the home front is Jasper starting at school on Feb 4, right after Tess returns. He’ll start in Junior Kindergarten, at Small World Christian Kindergarten, just down the hall from Sebastian’s class. This is big news and wonderful that Sebastian & Jasper will have a few months going to school together before Seb moves on to his next school.

  1. It’s nice that they will be able to go to school together for a while. It will make Jasper feel a little more comfortable on his big day.
    As for your bags, you’d think that they would be a little more effeciant, especially at that time of morning when people are more likely to be grumpy!

  5. I hadn’t thought to pen blog entries while waiting for my blog. I guess I’ve been too addicted to taking pictures of the baggage pickup area.
    Your travel schedule amazes me. Every time I zip through a city, I think of how you might be doing the same thing. Weird, eh?
