Having fun in Amsterdam
My dad, Bruce and I arrived on Sunday morning in Amsterdam at the early hour of 8 a.m. I drugged myself with some Melatonin, so I didn't work as nearly as long as I would've liked. They did have an electrical plug (that required and worked with my MacBook adapter) so I was able to pull out the 15" and work for 5 hours. The flight was 9 hours and I managed to never step out of my seat (good ol' bladder of steel developed at The Cabin). Bruce said he slept 30 minutes at the end of the flight; my dad managed to get 7 hours.
The weather has been beautiful and we've been enjoying the sunshine and good beer. Queen's Day was crazy and quite a sight to see. The amount of boats in the canals and people in the streets was amazing. The only downside so far is neither my dad nor I brought our camera cords. If you're at ApacheCon EU and reading this, we could use a USB or Sony camera connector. I'll try to post some pics if I can borrow a cord.
