The Hague --> Breda

The weekend finally came. We finally got to see the man, the legend, the most famous DJ in the world...Tiesto. The performance was definately worth the wait. We also got to see a couple of nice Dutch cities that weekend.

We got into the Hague pretty late and walked around a bit until finding our nearly empty hostel. The Hague isn't exactly the biggest tourist place in Netherlands if you didn't know before. After a few drinks we were ready to hit Asta where Tiesto was playing.

Man does this guy know how to put on a show. The music was pumping, awesome tracks all night and a great light show. You could tell how much the Dutch love this guy. Check out some of the video's at: http://www.youtube.com/profile?user=Canucks1000. By 5AM though Alex and I were ready to crash...

The next day we checked out some of the Hague. Unfortunately, it was raining so we didn't check out as much as we wanted to. The Hague is a nice city which looks quite similar to Rotterdam. It has many modern buildings including the UN headquarters and the International Court of Justice.

We then headed over to Breda where Alex's family was from and where...Tiesto was from. This city was similar to Maastricht but with a lot more parks. We checked out a museum of Breda's history and checked out there giant church. By the time it got dark we decided to head back to Maastricht.

Overall, a good weekend and a great time at the Tiesto show. Only one more month to go on this exchange. It's scary, only 3 more big trips to go...

Weekend 1: Berlin
Weekend 2: Zurich --> Interlocken (Possibly snowboarding the Swiss Alps)
Weekend 3: Paris
Weekend 4: Amsterdam to head back to good ol' Canada...
