   Craig and I went to the Van Gogh museum yesterday. It was really impressive. In the basement were painting that were done by more recent artists that were inspired by him. Each of them looked at some aspect of Van Gogh's work, such as colour or gesture. One picture was of some older naked guy with others pointing at there 'goods' (gesture), another was called ObGlob and is hard to explain but the best way is lots of tubes of paint squeezed at the same time but not mixed, several blobs of colour (colour).

   We skipped the canal cruise but did stuff like send a package to NZ and ate chips with mayonnaise. We just wandered around the canals and filled a day. We caught the night train to Prague along with Anand, Nate and Dave (the Jersey boys) who we met at the Flying Pig. This train was pretty horrible as it included being woken about every 20 - 30 minutes between 3am to 5.30am for tickets and passports when our tickets had already been checked. I heard a story about an Australian getting chucked off the train because he didn't have a visa (Australians and Canadians need Visas apparently no one else does). The fellows waking us up were not the kind and friendly type of customs officer but the yelling in three languages at once kind. Oh well off to explore Prague.

Interesting that Craig always talks about all the women he has met along the way and now Bronwyn is talking about all the men she meets ;) Well, its not really that interesting but I couldn't think of anything better to say, anyone else got any witty comments?
