Okay so I am in Amsterdam now! As I have expected, got on the wrong train to go to Amsterdam Central Station. Their schedule was messed up and train was running slow, so what can I do! I should have just took a cab but cab is so expensive and train is only 3 Euro..... I kept asking people and finally got to central station. I forgot that in order to open the train door, I have to press button, and I had to ask people how to open the door. How embarassing! I gave up getting on a tram with my suit case from central station. I just didn't want to drag around my luggage. so I took a cab and paid 22 Euro for 10min. cab ride....so expensive! Now I got to the hotel too early for the check-in, I decided to eat breakfast. I mean, nothing is open yet (8am) and nothing else to do...
The weather isn't very pretty today, cold and rainy! Fortunately I visited here last year and I am somewhat familiar with the environment, that's good.Eating Salami and Cheese, feels like an European (!?) I guess this conference I am going to is very big event in Amsterdam, a lot of people are here for that right now. I saw many people getting lost at the station. I am not alone. It sucks to be alone in the foreign country and get lost. You feel lonely! Hopefully I will see my colleagues soon. I don't like eating by myself either. Totally not a person who can travel alone.
アムステルダムに来ました。出張です。海外出張で一人は初めて。。後で他の拠点の人たちと合流ですが、寂しい~!心ぼそい~!笑 せめてもの救いは、アムステルダムは去年来てたから。風景は変わってないし、良いけど。予想通り空港からの電車は乗り間違え。人に聞いて乗り継ぎを成し遂げ、、しかし車両には私一人ぽつ~ん。朝の7時。果たして本当に合ってる電車に乗っているのか、不安になりながらもなんとかセントラルに到着!トラムを探してみたが。雨だし。傘ないし。断念。タクシーにのってホテルへ。やっとついたよ。しかし朝早すぎてチェックインできず、、仕方なく朝ごはんを食べてます。
今回はアムステルダムでやる大きなカンファレンスに来てるんだけど、本当大勢の人たちがそれに来ているようで、飛行機でも駅でも、それらしき人たちがたくさんいた。大きなカンファレンスとは聞いているが、どれだけ大きいんだ!?楽しみです。今日は天気が悪く。何しようかなあ。。一人で旅行は本当向いてないわ。
