Ashlynn was happy to be able to take the others to her favorite rooftop bar in The Hague, where they ordered via an app in order to cut down contact time with staff.
Veronica and Brett also attended a Black Lives Matter Protest at the Malieveld. Points on the ground told everyone where to stand to maintain social distancing and most folks wore masks.
The event was entirely in Dutch, so Brett was left out, but Veronica managed to understand most of what the Black speakers told of their personal experiences of racism in the Netherlands.
She was proud to be part of this peaceful demonstration. In contrast, there were violent protests the following day at the same location as people whined about the Dutch coronavirus measures, which were considered some of the most relaxed in the world.
