Three weeks
ago Sandra and I went to Utrecht – my new favorite city in the Netherlands. With
his charm, old houses and nice little shops with all the stuff you DON’T need
but which are lovely and totally awesome.
But to
begin with Saturday of that weekend we planned about a month ago that we want
to go to a fish spa where we got a very good and cheap offer. SO we met at the
metro station and walked to the spa both wearing skirts because as we young
girls all wear skinny jeans you can’t roll them up to you knee anymore xD
At the spa
the first feeling of the fishes was really strange because you feel them some
kinda “eating” the died skin and stuff from your feet. After about 20 minutes
we also got our feet creamed with lotion
and a little massage. Our feet felt better than before and it was a nice
experience and I would definitely do it again.
After a
wonderful girls night with a little more serious movie (Komt een vrouw bij een
dokter) and some snacks we went to Utrecht on Sunday.
As it is
really common to buy “Dagkaatjes” (Day tickets for the Dutch Train System)which
you can by at different stores. They cost between 14 and 17€ and are valid for
one day all around the Dutch train system (NS). As I have a weekend free
ticket, I don’t need it but Sandra had one and we planned to go to Utrecht. It
is around 40 minutes from Rotterdam so the time in the train passed by fast.
When we got
there we easily found ourselves in the center as the central station is totally
in the middle of it. There we searched for the “Dom torren” which we found
easily. But as you can just go up there with a tourist tour and we were about
10 minutes late we decided to just come back soon. Then we discovered some nice
shops and as there was sale we couldn’t stand it to not buy stuff xD
Then we
searched for a “Eetcafe” to have lunch and we found one where the food was
awesome, delicious and it was a lot :P
With full
stomachs we headed back to the central station where we found a cute traffic
light – The lights were bunnys (red->hanging ears; green-> ears up) and
the zebra crossing was in the colors of the rainbow :)
Pretty
tired but happy we went back by train chatting about the nice weather and the
beautiful city.
