Day 3 of me commuting to Amsterdam for more meet-ups with Hive Friends. I just got on my tram to the train station, and the Dutch people who got in with me sighed: “Wat een weer joh!”, meaning ‘whoa, this weather!’, yes, even for us Dutchies this kind of rain is a bit much.
But alas - I’ve heard rumours of next years target dor HiveFest and the weather might be 1000% better, so it all evens out in the end :-)
Tonight is the closing dinner and the closing drinks. It’s always sad when events like this end but I know from past experience we’ll all be smiling for weeks and months to come about the memories we made <3
The location we’ll meet in the next few hours is coincidentally one me and my mom were wondering about when we sat there after a walk through the city. It looked fun, it helped that it was a sunny day, but when I looked it up it appeared to be a rowing organisation so we didn’t feel like we would be welcome there as non-members. And now we’ll have our HiveFest dinner there? Love how life plays out sometimes :-)
Will post some photos and reflections after tonight - for now the challenge is to get at the dinner relatively dry and enjoy the last few moments with my Hive Friends.
