A-dam

I just arrived in amsterdam a couple of hours ago. I got to have tea with my cousin before she went back to bed and now im sitting in the sun on her balcony working :D she works nights at the hospital so she sleeps during the day.
Dutch is a funny language, sometimes it sounds simular to english in german, sometimes is sounds like another world. When I left Germany last year and moved back to Sweden, I had my horse with me. So we needed a horse transporter. We came across Marcel Jordan from The Netherlands, he hauls horses up to Scandinvia twice a month and was one of the few that agreed on taking on my horse, my belongings and myself from Kassel up home. Not that many transporters wants to drive in the Kassel area beacuse of all the hills, but Marcel did.. I had never met this guy before but I was in his truck with him and his son for.. uhm...20 something hours? the drive is not that long, but we had to stop every now and then to pick up and drop off horses, and give the horses water and hay, so it took some time. Thankfully Marcel spoke english but his son didnt, so they were talking dutch to eachother... I didnt understand much...
But it was a fun drive, Marcel had a lot of stories to tell, he has been hauling horses all over Europe and even to Russia!
I like people that have stories to tell.. Im sure I will have a lot to tell when Im done with this job!
