We said a sad good-bye to our Villa, collected our security deposit and headed for Naples Airport. The ride was subdued...I thought it was introspection of a fabulous time together...but instead, apparently it was mounting nausea from the ride...just a little windy.
A farewell cafe americano and croissant with Nancy and Marie and we were off to Amsterdam. Checked into the hotel...a nondescript airport Sheraton (with only four hours of internet per room...a definite Trip Advisor moment)...a short train ride to Amsterdam Central...a fun dinner of "New York meets Amsterdam"...really no idea what we were eating...but good (anything but Italian).
Then to Sherlocked, an escape room. We had no idea of what we were getting into...the website says that you have an hour to escape from the room, using clues that you find scattered around the room. I anticipate that our dear children will have this solved in 15 minutes and be ready to move on. In reality it captivated us for the full hour...we escaped the room with less than 3 minutes to go. Absolutely the most enjoyable hour I have spent in a long time. Unfortunately, I can say nothing about the experience without ruining it for someone else...a definite Trip Advisor moment.
Took the train back to the hotel, for a nightcap and a play-by-play review of the room. Tomorrow we leave for home...it's going to be a long day.
