Brian and Jessie!

The weather has started to turn cooler. Rain is consistently in the forecast. We go to the market between rain drops and on outings between showers.

Yesterday we got lucky. Heavy rain in the morning. A brief interruption in rain allowed me to head to the market.

Another round of fairly heavy showers and then the clouds parted and then sun came out. We headed to the Central Station to pick up Brian and Jessie.

The train from Frankfurt arrived on spoor 8b as posted and there they were!

Since the weather was nice and they had thought to change clothes in Frankfurt we walked to the apartment. A nap on the 3 hour train ride gave them a little energy. With umbrellas in hand we went in search of food and drink!

We took the long way around, walking through Magna Plaza, to the Dam Square and then eventually along the canals to the Leidseplein. Food and a couple of drinks revived them long enough to walk back home.

A quick stop upstairs at 'their' apartment to change clothes resulted in the key being locked in their room. Just when they thought they could go to bed.....they had to wait until Allen arrived to unlock their door. Fortunately it wasn't a long wait and we sent them on their way.

It is raining this morning. Have not seen or heard from our visitors as of yet so not sure what adventures we will have today! We are just glad they are here with us!
