Waiting for Jeantine

 

Thursday 31 July 2008 in Amsterdam
Jeantine's CT scan day, so off to the Hospital for the 11am appointment. Running short of time so took the tram – one zone, two stops. The liquid Jeantine had to drink was clear and didn't have the taste of the previous time. A guy who joined us in the waiting area, certainly didn't like the liquid he was required to drink. Barb set her iTouch clock for every 15 minutes but they came for Jeantine in half and hour. After the scan Jeantine was able to find an office within the Hospital building to pay the excess on her medical insurance.

Back via the Tram and called into Cafe Noir that Jeantine said she had a great Greek salad before. Her Greek salad this time was slightly different and she couldn't finish it, so it was doggy bag for that. Barb had a sandwich on ciabatta and Ray a BLTC, bacon, lettuce, tomato and chicken – quite yummy all round. Drinks were two large freshly squeezed orange and a banana smoothie for Barb. Second drinks included another orange, plus Pepsi and espresso which was fine. Might be able to trust the coffee there.

We left Jeantine to catch the bus to work, for a team building day and Barb and Ray were about to walk home when Barb's eye caught this black board sign that pointed to this Tobacco and Magazine vendor shop where we picked up a smaller map of Amsterdam and a Red Bull Air Race branded cap for Ray. Expect the cap show up in future photos. Another sunny warm day in Amsterdam.
