Once upon a time, three developers, lost in Amsterdam began their adventure …

Arrival

After the plane landed, we took the train from Schiphol airport station, riding it like a wild bull, and got off at this once so important harbor city, the center for all sea based trading coming in and out of Europe. We started our journey with a pitstop at the closest Vlaamse Frites place we could find.

We munched in silence, only exchanging shameful looks at each other, throwing the leftovers in the trash and walking away like nothing happened, never to speak about it again.

We made our way through the narrow streets of this 800 year old town, toxic fumes pouring out of underground dungeons, clouding our minds and dragging us in. We fought to keep our heads straight, focusing on finding the safe haven where we will spend the coming nights.

After arriving safely we took to the streets to boost our minds with some well deserved beverages.
It is time to rest and regain our strength for we know not what is to come.
