After a bakery breakfast, we spent most of Saturday at the Rijkmusuem, the Dutch National Museum. It turns out that the only tickets available for purchase are good for an entire year. Since we spent most of our time in the 17th Century and 20th Century sections, there is still more to see. We'll just have to come back, maybe in the winter.
We were due to catch a late-afternoon train to Karlsruhe, in Germany. After the museum, we made time for postcards and loaded up on pancakes, again. There is a certain regret with going to the same place twice when there are so many other options, but come on. Pancakes. We've said enough about that.
Saturday night was a long ride, with reading and puzzles. Matt decided to blow off writing, so there is a bit of delay in the posts. Karlsruhe is a handy base of operations for our spa day on Sunday in Baden-Baden.
We got there at 11:00pm, but the good news is that our hostel was literally right next to the train station. Also, the bad news is that our hostel was literally right next to the train station. Fortunately, one of our roommate's snoring drowned out the train.
I will write that again. The snoring of our roommate drowned out the noise of the trains arriving next door. Epic.
Spa day tomorrow! Aren't we fancy!
