(Or, I should technically say, “We’re ba-ack!”)
Set out from home at 06:something and arrived at Birmingham airport. Had breakfast, logged on to their Wi-Fi and settled in for a short wait.
Almost missed the plane! How on earth that happened, I don’t know… last ones onto the tiniest plane – it was so small, it was almost a private jet!
The plane was also old… I couldn’t quite figure out whether it was because the plane was so small or because it was so old that the toilet was on the outside…
I was joking about the outside toilet!
And on to Amsterdam!
Landed safely (obviously) and made our way down to the integral train station. Pre-booked tickets made for a simple journey. An old lady with an old Pekingese dog in her handbag didn’t complain as we set ourselves opposite her on the train.
A few stops later, booked a 6 day Metro pass for tram and bus rides (€30 each) and a couple more stops later, we arrived opposite the Volkshotel where the #SteemFest is being held.
That looks comfy!
Booked in and I asked about other SteemFest people. “There are two over there who are with the SteemFest,” she said.
So, now we’re settled in our room, I have time to write this.
I’m so sorry if you haven’t been able to make this SteemFest but I’m sure there will be more to come.
OK, so where do I sleep?
Just sitting down and thinking about this…
Three months ago I’d never heard of #SteemIt and now we’re in a different country, excited to meet other people with the common interests of writing and, of course, SteemIt.
Well, I can’t say I live a boring life…
Hope you have a blast over there and remember to bring me back a report of everything you learn :)

Yeah, it sure is - we've been doing that very same thing for a number of decades...
It started with CB Radio back in the early 80s - that's how I 'hooked up' with @s0u1 :)

It's the GVB one which is €17 for three days and we got it once we had arrived at Amsterdam central station. The shop is outside. We had already gotten train tickets. If the one you found includes the airport train and the metro then €25 is a good deal. We needed a 6 day pass.
