Weather and Noise

So I am officially the sleepiest person on the trip. I've slept through 2 events so far and this poor RA's job basically consists of waking me up, waiting for me to dress, and taking me to where ever on the grounds everyone else who has the good sense not to sleep for 12 hours has gone to. This morning I slept through breakfast, but caught the last 30 minutes of the castle rules and regulations meeting (led by Huber, the lovely groundskeeper with the sweetest accent).

Then lunch (this country is really big on cold cuts) and planning some travel. It looks like we're going to get around to way more places than I had thought. We head to Amsterdam as a group on Monday, Bruges Wednesday, Venice the week after, also London, possibly Ireland, and either Spain or France.

I am again exhausted. After dinner tonight, we went to one of the two local bars. I think the whole town was there. All 12 of them. It was fun, the Dutch people are very friendly and everyone in our group is still getting to know one another. Then, 15 of us went out to the biggest nightclub in the country today. This place was massive, it had like 5 different rooms with a new DJ each, it can hold up to 6,000 people. It was fun for a little while. But started to get crowded, sloppy, and... clubby. It was interesting though, dancing in a club in Europe, all girls were much safer from getting grabbed or approached from guys than they are in America. Except by American tourists.

Some people are so embarrassing.
