Yikes2

It's me isn't it? I am now stuck in Amsterdam because the giant cloud of volcanic dust from Iceland has now shut down all of the airports in Europe. I learned a new Dutch word - "Geanulleend" which means "cancelled." It was written beside EVERY flight listed at the airport - a first for me.Predictions for tomorrow say all will be geanulleend again. At least I found a hotel room about 40 minutes outside of Amsterdam. Lots of families are sleeping on bedrolls in the airport. The Airport Hilton was charging $500 a night. Can you say "extortion" boys and girls?
My continuing mantra is "It's all part of the adventure."......
