Day 3 for us started normally enough. A hearty breakfast followed by the quick walk to the office. Waiting there for us were the members of the team that were still in town. It is interesting to note that at any single point in time, half the office is travelling for work.
Since we were special, (at least I like to think so) the team made some concessions to make our acquaintance and have a chat with us. For which, we are grateful.
How else would we have found out the depth of knowledge and the similarities of challenges that exist in this region when compared to some of the others. The team opened up to us during the course of the day and we swapped stories about the good, bad and some hairy experiences we have had over the years with the company.
There wasn't a dull moment.
Lunch Time!! The highlight of the lunch hour was the fine walk in the uncharacteristically sunny weather for Amsterdam this time of the year. Everyone is talking about it. Including the cab driver who drove us to the hotel from the airport on Day 1! The 10 minute walk saw us at this modern "Food Bar". Which all of us enjoyed thoroughly, especially since it was peppered with some very open, good humored conversation.
The Food Wall : Need I say more?

Ouderkerk - The Sleepy little Dutch Village. This place, just outside Amsterdam (17 Euro Cab Ride - In a swanky Mercedes!) is unbelievably quaint and I daresay Colloquial Dutch.
