Off to Europe!

Oops! We're a day late ... But I have a really good excuse this time - I'm in Amsterdam!

Most of the week was spent just doing not much and prepping for the Holiday, We flew out of Sydney on the Sunday at around midday and transferred in Jakarta for another flight directly to Amsterdam. All up it was about 23 hours or something on a plane and it sucked! We landed in AMS at about 9am, so I was really hoping I would pass out on the last leg of the flight and be well rested for the day but that didn't really end up happening lol - I got maybe an hour max of sleep ...

My partner and I did watch a bunch of movies on the plane though:

• Predator Badlands
• Godzilla: King of the Monsters
• The Prestige
• Zootopia 2
• Detective Pikachu
• The Lego Batman movie

Detective Pikachu was actually terrible, and we didn't end up finishing it - it felt like an old Smosh YouTube bit with too much budget. Otherwise, I enjoyed all the movies heaps! Predator was really good, Godzilla was mid but campy (Holy fuck they had to do so much rewriting in future movies lul), The Prestige was super intresting, Zooptopia 2 was really fun, and the Lego Batman Movie was funny. They at least helped pass the time! Will probably rewatch when I get back home on a nicer screen and speakers.

Once we landed in AMS my partner and I met up straight away with friends - ideally they would keep us awake until we got back to our accommodation that night so we wouldn't have shitty jet lag. It worked!

We did a lot of wandering around - If we sat on a particularly comfortable bench I probably would have fallen asleep, but I didn't!

I plan to write all about the trip in next week's post!
