No post again yesterday as it was a busy day. We boarded the bus early and traveled to Haarlem, where the ship is docked, with a stop in Ghent. We arrived at the ship around 4:45 and quickly went through cabin assignments, etc. before the safety briefing and remarks from the captain and department heads and program directors. Then it was off to a very good dinner in the ship’s dining room.
Today we went into Amsterdam for a canal boat tour of the city and some free time to explore on our own. We attempted to go to the VanGogh museum but our lack of prior planning came back to bite us. The time frame for us to get in was so late that we decided it wasn’t worth having to rush through in time to catch our shuttle back to the ship. But we had a good time anyway and look forward to another wonderful dinner this evening.
I’ll report back tomorrow…good night!
