The last couple of days have been relatively uneventful. Sal and I have been watching loads of porn (who knew double penetration was so popular?) but the awkwardness of last Sunday has not been repeated. I guess she has read He is Just Not That Into You as well, especially the chapter He's not that into you if he doesn't want to have sex with you.
Anyway, the two gay clubs here, Stairs and Friends, are only open on the weekend so I have been spending my days sightseeing and evenings eating lovely meals with sal. It has been nice to catch up on old times and sift through her photos of us over the years.
Yesterday I spent the day at Scheveningen, a North Sea beach resort - read COLD, hiking through the dunes and examining the sleeping remnants of Nazi monsters. Today unfortunate looking rich people and I jockied for a decent view of the Vermeers on display at the Maurithaus. The play of light in the View of Delft is exquisite. I learnt the word for Lady!, mevrouw, when I got too close to the tiny little dots in the painting.
Tomorrow I am to Amsterdam. They have several gay bars there :)
