I am trying to post these in something resembling logical batches, so here we have what happened after we arrived. Having been given a birthday present at the airport, I managed to resist the urge to roll something immediately and took a few shots of the flat (see previous post) before it got too messed up.
We had a walk around the local area, then headed up to Damrak or Rembrandtsplein, can’t remember which right now. Will check notes when back in Astana. Ira spotted some sea food, and polished off a saucepan full. I was lucky enough to receive a free birthday drink from the bar, which wasn’t quite to my tastes, so Ira enjoyed the strawberry cocktail instead.
