We had a busy day today. We went out and found a great place for coffee and pastry.



Our train leaving Hanover wasn’t until about 4 so after we checked out of the hotel we stored our bags and went exploring.
Because it was a weekday the town hall was open. Inside we walked around a bit. They had 4 large scale models of Hanover over the years.



We stopped for coffee and a snack.

Although we had first class train tickets we did not have an assigned seat. After we got on the train we found a place in second class to stow our bags and then, after we had pull out of the station, we found a conductor in one of the first class compartments. She found us seats even though almost every seat was taken. The train ride from Hanover to Amsterdam took almost 5 hours.

In Amsterdam we walked to our hotel and then found a Dutch bar where we could have beer and a meat and cheese board for dinner.
