Schiphol Visit

The weather held up through today. We stopped by McDonald’s for breakfast/lunch. We tried the American Classic 1955 burger from the campaign they’re running in the Netherlands. Early afternoon we spent two hours at the Schiphol Observation deck. There is an awesome view of the gates and airplanes from there. They hollowed out a city-hopper plane and placed it on the roof deck. G could name plane models off the top of his head.  Planes landed and departed on the nearby runways every few minutes. A KLM plane landed and parked the gate next to us, and the co-pilot waved back when he noticed my camera. We left Schiphol at the onset of strong winds and rain. At home, we ate the rest of the lasagna, and braved the winds for a walk outside.
