Maastricht Centraal

Hello! I am on a train, waiting for it to leave to Amsterdam. Well, it has been great living in Belgium with Auntie Casey. I have had a great time, now it is time to leave.

Yours,

Dorrel

Amsterdam Centraal

Hello! I am currently on a bench in Amsterdam Centraal. We have just gotten off the train and we will eat some food. The train trip was uneventful, but maybe the tram trip won’t be.

Yours truly,

Dorrel

Amsterdam, The Netherlands

Hello! I am at Lisa and Nidi’s apartment, writing. The tram trip was a bit crowded, but that’s fine. We are near a park, and it looks great! I know because I took a walk there with my family, Lisa, Nidi, and Elliot. The cat is responding to the laser pointer, and that’s great!

Yours,

Dorrel
