Still pretty jetlagged. We spent nearly the whole day Friday and Saturday sleeping away the daylight hours. I'm exhausted but am forcing myself to stay awake today to get things back on track.
When we arrived on Friday morning, Kyle met us at Schipol Airport. We got a ride back to The Hague from his generous friend Peter, a friendly New Zealander who has a minivan. Thank God, because we needed every inch of the van for all of our junk. He even had carseats for the kids as his own kids are ages 2 and 5. Thanks Peter!
Dari was pretty good on the plane. I just kept him satiated with snacks and toys. :) Sofia stayed up and watched the movies: Intolerable Cruelty (she didn't know what the heck it was about, and totally not appropriate for a seven-year-old!) and Cheaper by the Dozen (she liked that one).
We met Kyle's other friend Peter last night, a chatty Brit filled with loads of trivia about England. He's really entertaining. Going with him to Britain is definitely on our to-do list, and he's already invited us!
