To Amsterdam! Back to where we began!

Today, we head back to Amsterdam, the first city of our wonderful trip, which was to be our last. We knew that there, we will be more aware than we were already that we would have to separate, again. We knew that the trip was nearing its end. We knew that we had to say goodbye. But we also knew that in the 3 weeks so far that we've been together, which was constant, 24/7, we managed to get along. This trip was a test to see how we can cope with each other. Some days were great. Some days was just ok. But there weren't any when we had bad moments. True, it was our honeymoon and thus our vacation. We didn't have to work. There were still many experiences we had to go through to discover if we'd get on each other's nerves. But that's ok. We couldn't wait. And this trip had just made our love much stronger.

We checked out of our hotel, while at the same time I purchased the Chinese food from Savasie, the restaurant we got our food from the night before. We got two orders to-go, which we would eat in the train. We then got our taxi, and we were on our way to Gare du Nord, or North Train Station, which served trains that travel north of Paris. The train itself was Thalys, which in my opinion was better than France's other superior train, TGV. The basis was that TGV did not provide any power plug while Thalys did. Thus, I wrote my blog in my computer, which actually were of the previous trip in Rome, while Sheilla read the Louvre book of their art collections.



Our train passed through Brussels, Belgium. Luckily we had decided to skip sightseeing in this city as it did not look too appealing up front from the train. In addition, the rain was not going to be enjoyable, especially if we had to drag our now-even-heavier luggages. I took a couple of pictures just to say that at least we were in Brussels.
