Dutch Exchange
Our school did an exchange with another school in Holland. The family that I stay with was pretty cool. We went over there for a week each year (and this was about three weeks in all), this was quite nearly 9/10 years ago.... During one of my trips over there, my dutch family took me to a theme park, can't remember the name of it.

Any way, the eldest girl in the family (believe her name to be "Jetski" or something like that) was really pretty, and she was the only one of her family that wanted to go on a rollercoaster called "Python" (unsure, but it was something to do with snakes). It looked freakin' evil, loops and corkscrews. And the speed!!! It was going so fast, peoples faces looked like they'd just been hit with a frying pan.

But trying to look cool, and hopefully forge a stronger friendship (and hoping to get kissy kissy time with the beautiful "Jetski"). I agreed to go on it with her.

From the first drop, I closed my eyes and looked down.....what I didn't know is that it takes a picture of us half way around it.

"Jetski": *looking at the pic* Haha, what are you doing?
Me: *quickly looked at the pic, then lying badly* I think I sneezed at that point....

I never got kissy kissy time with her. Not even with contact with the family either. :(

The theme park....
is called the Efteling, I have been many times and love the bins saying 'papier hier' and then 'Danka wel' when its sucked in your rubbish (reading that back it sounds very Amsterdam back street esq.....).

That sounds about right.
All I can remember is that the ghost train was pants. Le Bob was good. And there was a freakin weird Jester everywhere.
