Hi dears,
1. Well Sunday morning, just before Rajiv woke up me and Pixi went to try out one of the Zwemmbad’s (Swimming pool) in Rotterdam. Wasn’t a bad idea at all. Of course this isn’t at all like the filth we have at home. Nice good lockers, automatic showers with just the right amount of hot water, nice clean pool and a lifeguard … that was very careful that none of us drowns … in Romania you could drown and lie down the pool for half a day before somebody notices you. Well we did do the thingie for 1,5 hours and then we were of course beat and barely got home EAT and got to bed for 3 hours. Remember we went to the swimming pool at 9:00.
Weird things:
As you see … I’ve restructured my postings :)
A weird thing was that people don’t go to the swimming pool to relax (it’s quite expensive – 3,18EUR/2 hours) they swim like on the highway. Extremely funny. There are 3 lanes: Super fast, Medium and Slow (of course we were on the fast lane) and all of them are full of people going in circles around the pool like cars (or ducks). I’m sorry I didn’t have my camera with me! The Lifeguard also acts like a traffic controller. If he notices you are to slow for the lane, he moves you to a slower lane. I laughed my ass of.
2. When we woke up Pixi got the “wonderful” idea to visit the great park in Rotterdam. Of course its almost at the margin of the city, ant it’s 3 time as big as “Herastrau”. And he also got the “GREAT” idea to go round the lake :) I was cursing him at half ways … but there was only one way … forward.
We made pictures and stuff, watched the sunset upon the lake, and also got to see 5 couples of wild geese bringing their young in the water, this was really something. Every family was moving in a row and the “parents” guided their young not to fall of the line … nice.
Also we got to see lots of sexy hot mamma’s … two days in a row, same goes for sunny weather which is pretty rare here …
Pixi then explained to me that only “filthy” immigrants (like us) are visiting the park. Dutch people almost never go there … weird.
Well that’s about it. Have fun or bore yourself to death while reading.
The Lion :)
