Day two in Holland was a lazy one for us, we just sat in and watched films on Netflix all day. On day three however, we went to Schutterspark, and had a walk around and a bite to eat at the cafe. Afterwards, we stayed at Kirsty's aunts house until it was time to move from her one cousins house, to her other cousins apartment.The apartment is decent sized, and has a balcony too.
I can't get over how "modern" and different Holland is to England, and the different views on things, especially weed. In Holland, people are allowed to grow 5 marijuana plants in there back garden,which is absolutely crazy. There are bicycles everywhere, along with bike lanes on all the roads and the drivers are absolute maniacs sometimes, but they're not as bad as the drivers in Athens! Tomorrow we have a wedding to go to, which I'm looking forward to as I've never been to a Dutch wedding before.

So today was the first proper day in Holland. We left the house at 1am yesterday morning to catch the ferry at 6am, but it was delayed until 7:40am! I didn't sleep until we were on the ferry, and then I slept through most of France and Belgium too. We got to Holland at 1pm local time. I met Kirsty's Dutch family, who are completely crazy, but have made me feel really welcome. I even tried a bami, which is spicy noodles in breadcrumbs and it was lovely. Kirsty and I are staying at her cousin's house, and we fell asleep pretty quickly last night.
Today we went to Heerlen and we did some damage to our bank accounts. I bought the best thing ever though, a pink jumper with unicorns all over it! I also got some harem trousers, which are really comfortable, and a "You Can Sit With Us", which for anyone who doesn't know, is a play on a Mean Girls quote. I also bought a black leather hair bow to go in my hair, all from H&M. Then Kirsty took me to a shop called Action, and I bought some letter cubes that say "Dream It, Do It" with a star inbetween, which I think will look great by my bed. In the evening, we went to a football match that 2 of Kirsty's cousins were playing in, and we took silly selfies, and Kirsty's sister, Megan accidentally pulled some of the pitch up. I also drank tea from a clear mug which I found really weird and I don't know why. I'm really looking forward to tomorrow, so I will see you then!
