First day arriving in Amsterdam, The Netherlands 12/7/2013

Our first day in Netherland was hilarious excited. Me and my friends weren't frequent travelers, so for a one month stay in Europe we all ended up overpacked. Our luggages extremely heavy and worried about being fined over 50lbs. All my friends made it to that max weight. I was not lucky as they are, my check-in luggage was overweight by 10lbs :( For future traveller advise is to pack light, some clothes, if not, I suggest you rather buy it there during the trip than pulling 70lbs of luggage at hand (one carry on and one check in)and RUNNING, RUSHING, SWEATY thats the three words best describe our 2013-2014 Europe Trip.

Our luggages going and coming back on the train to/from Amsterdam Schiphol 


However, we were manage to handle everything well except of what happened in Munche/Munich in Germany. The flight KLM was smooth except that I got drove back home 2 hour from departing to find my camcorder charger didn't find it in the end :(  It was raining day, just like the first/last time I flew to Netherland by myself. It was only a 10 hours flight, not long, the flight attendants are very nice, they keep feeding us liquid: water, or ice-cream almost every hour with 2 meals, breakfast and dinner on board. For some reason, it was extraordinary dry inside the cabin. The mask came quiet handy and keeps our face moisturizing (didn't know/use until like almost landing Netherland LOL)

On our journey in search of The Milky Way

There are no other places that have the darkest and best locations getting a glimpse of The Milk Way like Joshua National Park. It was such a coincidence that I had the "Spurt of the Moment" kind of thoughts on Thursday, without knowingly it was also the first day of the American National Celebration holiday that all entrance to national parks in the nation will be free. Wohoo, it means that I must go no matter what. So here are you eye candy of The Milky Way, Unfortunately, the photos came out blurry because part of my tripod that secures my camera was actually missing....  :(
