He prescribed some drugs to help the inner ear, and a nose spray. None of which has seemed to make a difference sadly but he did say that it could take up to two weeks. Oh well, hopefully it will go away. Trying to find the pharmacy was a bit of an adventure - the Netherlands only have drug stores that sell drugs, and separate stores for all the other crap you get in pharmacies.
After the doctor we watched some TV, had a snooze and then went for a walk around the neighbourhood and did some shopping (for food). Everything was so close and the weather had cleared up so win!
The plan for the night was to go to (surprise surprise) see more family. This time it was dad's oldest sister, and her family. After getting out of the train in their suburb, we started making a guess as to where their apartment was. Apparently the street name had changes since the last time dad was there, so no iPhone navigation... So we topped up on Frikandel (awesome sausage thing with onions, curry sauce and mayo. Awesome) and went for a walk. Turns out that their apartment block was this MASSIVE block near the train station, and was pretty hard to miss.
Hanging with my Aunt's family was pretty cool. We went for traditional Dutch takeaway for dinner, Chinese. Sadly, they had a cat, which sent Sandra's hay-fever into overdrive and although we were carrying around a stockpile of drugs with us, antihistamines weren't one of them. This, however, got Sandra a bag of travel tissues from my uncle.
We hung out there for a while longer before my cousin dropped us off home. The commands of his GPS were not very loud, so instead I filled that role. "Links Afslaan"... It was funny though because he obviously had in his mind a certain direction to take so there were a few times where the instructions of the GPS were just blatantly ignored. It all worked out ok though which is always good!
