Ok, this is why I brought my Netbook.  It’s because I have a 5 hour layover here in Amsterdam.  I’m sitting at a McDonalds where I just paid $12 for a 6 piece nuggets, fries and a Coke!  It’s 6am over here.  Flying this far is weird because your sense of time gets so screwed up.  Being 6am means nothing to me, I feel good but I know I slept only 3 hours on the plane.  I should be tired but I’m not.

BTW, internet is very expensive here.  I am paying $25 to use the internet for the day.  My other choice was $20 for 30 minutes, what a ripoff.  I’m IMing with my friend back in the States, she can’t sleep and it’s the middle of night there.

Also, I forgot to write that Jessica Biel made it to the top of Mt. Kilimanjaro!  As I was leaving the states I saw reports of their group summiting.  It looks like they did the Shira route which is the same route that I am climbing!  If I only booked a week earlier.  From the reports it also sounds like they had bad weather and a snow storm on summit day.  Maybe I should be happy I didn’t book a week earlier.
