I have always wanted to visit the Netherlands. This last spring US Airways offered discount fares to promote their new routes to Amsterdam. So, I figured that I would take them up on the offer. Plane change in Philadelphia. Arrived mid-morning at Schiphol Airport , Amsterdam.
G etting around the Netherlands is easy with their excellent train system .
After abandoning a futile attempt to figure out how to use the automated ticket vending machines, I purchased a ticket to Delft. As instructed, I changed trains in Leiden. In Leiden I got on the train to Rotterdam because it goes through Delft. Travelling through Delft Central Station at 50 mph I got to see a fleeting glimpse of my hotel. OK, I'm gunna see Rotterdam.
