Soft weekend, Hama and Ikea

On friday I went out with some people from work. We had a really nice dinner at De Kroon at Rembrandtplein and then when to Pijp and had a couple of beers. On saturday I went to town and bought a ten euro iron at Hema.

Hotdog with mayonaise

Today I went to IKEA in Bullewijk and bought an ironing board. IKEA was basically the same except that the hotdogs came with mayonaise. It was a weird feeling to walk around among the Swedish product names, feeling a misguided sense of national pride and thinking about whether there was someone else there who knew what the names ment.

I've also come to realize that you need a separate travellingcard for the trains to Schipol and antoher one for the trams, busses and metro in Amsterdam. This is because they are run by different companies. Overall it's been an exciting weekend.
