This morning, I went to the Bakkerij by my hotel and got a couple of croissants for breakfast. It's where I went last time, and very familiar and comforting for me. We had an easy morning (didn't wake up until 9:30am).
We took the train to Hoorn, this little port tow outside of Amsterdam to visit a friend of ours. We didn't end up doing much because it was a little rainy, but that's just fine for vacation. We had pannenkoeken met speck (pancakes with bacon) for lunch along with some capuccinos. Then, we walked around the shopping street--making stops at stumpel, a bookshop to get some cards (I have to stock up on greeting cards and note paper).
We then hung out more, wanting to grab an early dinner since our friend had to leave for a guitar lesson--and everything was closed! So, we got frites (fries) and broodje kroket (kroket on bread) for dinner. Yay junk food! Well, at least it's special Dutch junk food :). Then, Candy and I headed back to Amsterdam to have an early evening. I think I'll take a bubble bath tonight.
