Dag... from Leiden. My command of Dutch is dreadful. I'm working on a sentence that is very polite but will clearly indicate that I will not be able to continue the conversation.
As you know i've never written a blog entry before, it is still an open question whether i've actually achieved making my life exciting enough for a weblog. However, at the moment I am sitting at Universietere doe scent (phonetic) Patricia Beldade's computer in the Netherlands, and during my two weeks in Europe something worth writing about has got to happen.
Today i visited the naturalis history museum. Lovely collection of specimens, all dead. I think my favorite discovery is that there is a Sea Spider species (Pycnogonum littorale) that the Dutch common name is Michelinmannetje. And yes, it is aptly named.
As for the blog, I am going to make the following committment: I will never hit "Save As Draft." I know that's going to make for some lousy posts, but otherwise I'll revise these to death. The first time they will be honest and momentarily accurate, so that's what'll get posted.
Maybe some pictures tomorrow.
OK, I should reliquish computer back to Beldade. ~Doeg~
