Thusday, 14th of October
After class has been finished, I packed my stuff and went to Arnhem Central Station to catch the train to Den Haag. It was quite expensive, because I haven’t OV-Chipkaart, so that I must buy ticket to Den Haag in full tariif..ouww that’s bad. It cost € 17.60. But nevermind, if I’m waiting my OV-Chipkaart , I think I will miss my time to spend the holiday.
I had transit in Schiphol, and change my train that headed to Den Haag HS. * Yup, like as said in train schedule , I arrived there at 19.14 and picked by my friend, Filmon Warouw, to get transit in his places.
the train is very often to be late. It only get late for 1 or 2 minutes. You can count on your trip schedule on the train schedule.
- Den Haag’s view from Aris & Filmon’s room
His places was in 13th floor, and we can see quite wonderfull view of Den Haag. After take dinner accompanied by Aris n Tita, we take a walk to see night city view of Den Haag.
First time to visit that is Den Haag’s RDL (Red Light District), and even if it’s not as big as in Amsterdam, the view in this area quite make me feel suprised, indeed!hahaha. The woman in the windows, kindle with the red light lamp, try to attract people that walked surround them. I curious with how they make a transaction, so that, me and my friend try to find how it works. Try to make conversation with one of the lady in the windows, we just ask about tarif, and you know what, it cost €50 for 20 minutes of pleasure. no bargain and no run, otherwise, the cop will take you hahaha. We continue our trip to other places. We arrived at the a Hotel that has strong correlation with Indonesia’s History, the Parlement Building. We just went trough because the rain was falling at that time.
