Arriving

After arriving in Paris it was the fast train to Amsterdam. Way to travel. Finally some horizontal time and a good nights sleep. Thursday and it's time to hit the road/ train station to Utrecht. Pilgrim office closed but  after sitting on the edge if the fountain someone came out and when I explained I was a pilgrim from Australia I was made welcome and issued with my Dutch Pilgrim Passport, together with stamp. Train & bus to stay with friends in Leusden for a couple of days if R & R. Walking will start on Sunday but in the meantime I have got used to my backpack and it is already feeling like an old friend.
