Hi poetloverrebelspy –

Yes, Meredith and I were at Schiphol on Tuesday evening, after pulling one of the usual “Hey, our flight leaves in 2 1/2 hours and we still have to pick up our bags at the hotel” routines. The fog made for an especially ethereal return trip to New York.

Love your post about cool museums you’ve never heard of – who would’ve thought you could see a Rembrandt 5 minutes before going through security?

Happy holidays,

Pete

Cheapos, were you flying yesterday? We must have just missed each other (because of that fog) in Schiphol! I always make a side jaunt to this gallery. I even wrote about it last year: "Cool Museums You've Never Heard of." Glad you got home safely and hope you enjoyed a few drinks on KLM while watching Wall-E. Happy holidays!

Fine point, Emily. To tell the truth, it took me about 45 minutes to realize the movie wasn’t in English.

If I remember right, I think the first hour of Wall-E has perhaps two lines of dialogue?? But I’m certain it’s even cuter (as if that’s possible) when spoken in Dutch. Welcome home, Cheapos!
