Hallo Allemaal,

Stop by the Continental Restaurant for een gezellige avond with Dutch speakers. You can have dinner, a snack, or just something to drink terwijl wij nederlands spreken met elkaar.

Look for the Dutch and Belgian flags on our table.

Tot ziens!

Today I met Saskia for coffee, an old classmate from my highschool Wiringherlant. We calculated that it had probably been 21 years since we last saw each other, after we graduated in 1991. (Note: Rob correctly noted that we graduated in 1997, not 1991, so it has been 15 years).

Saskia saw my post on Facebook yesterday with the picture of the electric car charger and she realized we're only a few minutes away from each other. She is staying with friends in Menlo Park for a few weeks.

Saskia brought Mayca and we had coffee in our office. It was very nice to see them.

I tried to run over the the Stanford campus because that is a beautiful place to run, but I got lost on my way and instead ran through the Palo Alto suburbs.

It's nice to be in our Menlo Park office. I've met several new people and caught up with the teams we've been working with over the last year.

Our office now has an electrical car charger, as does the hotel we are staying in. A colleague explained that his car can do about 90 miles on a single charge and that it takes about 3 hours to charge the car.

The time difference makes it easy to get up early. Yesterday morning I went for a run at 6.00 am and today I woke up at 5.30 am again. We're leaving tomorrow morning, taking an 8.30 am flight from San Francisco.

Today I traveled to San Francisco with my colleagues Andy and Vinayak. It is the first time since Nora was born that I'm on a business trip, and it is sad to be away from her.

There's a 3 hour time difference with the East Coast so we saw the last presidential debate over dinner.

This morning I saw Nora's first tooth! It is on the lower left.

Last weekend we went for a nice walk in Georgetown.

Nora saw duckies for the first time and was quite impressed.
