1) Visited a 'buddy-school' today to learn more about the education system in The Netherlands. The school is in a village called Alphen, about 40mins by bus. It was a foggy and cold morning. Temperature? Minus-2 degrees! The primary school has pupils with disabilities included into mainstream schooling. Today, to encourage parents and pupils not to skip breakfast before attending school (at 8:45am), the government allocated breakfast food to all schools in The Netherlands - it's on the teacher's desk PC screen (and shown to the children via an interactive e-whiteboard.

2) After coming back, I had a nice Subway turkey ham sandwich (E$3.60)
