Just left Amsterdam. It was an oddly difficult city to grab wifi. Perhaps they have gotten sophisticated enough to secure their nodes. New York city is far more open. But the De Waag is a godsend. Beautiful, good beer, croquettes (and deciding if they are tasty depends about your feelings toward fried gravy. I'm for it.) and wifi!! Free open beautiful fast pipe. And I got to see the waiters light the candelabras. neat.
In Stockholm now.

I had dinner there 10 days ago and loved it. It is a wonderful
space and the food was very good. I had the celriac soup and curry
vegetables (somewhat soupy) and all was very good.
What a shame, we held the Design Engaged conference there the other
week and if I'd known you were around you could have at least joined us
for dinner.
We scrounged free wifi in a coupla places: the Hotel Arena where the
conference was, and also the Apple store on Wetringshans. Hotel Arena
tells me that free wi-fi is "an experiment" though, and might not last.
