Did
I mention that the 24-25 of March, which is today and yesterday that
the Netherlands or more specifically Den Haag, or the Hague will be
hosting the 2014 Nuclear Security Summit. That took place yesterday
and today as I stated and since my host family lives about 10-15
minutes away from the building it's taking place at the streets
around us, were cut off, or blocked and it was just very exciting. I
left my camera upstairs, which was a bummer but oh well. They had
over 50 world leaders from countries, for example, the president of
the USA(everyone here was extremely excited to see Obama) Like we saw
him and his cars earlier. The dutch people here said they understand
the significance of our president even if we don’t. I understand
but it's like they are overly excited about it. It's very different.
Anyways, they have the Canada, the United Kingdom, Egypt, Australia
and New Zealand, and Greece, Mexico. Today we saw in addition to the
USA president, we got to see the Mexico president? Or do they have a
prime minister? Anyway them, and the leader of another flag which I
currently don’t know. I'm going to google it.
I
just googled it and it was the Argentina flag. Hmm, we saw a bunch of
cars with the leaders in it and diferent flags. In case no one has
noticed I have a things for flags. I like to have one of every place
I've gone, even in the states, If I get no other souvenir make sure I
get a flag. That's bascially the building where it's taking place, the street has a tone of flags, it goes further up as well, but I didnt take a picture of it yet. As the USA flag is nowhere to be found in this picture.
Okay
that's all I wanted to share, going to try to catch a mid morning nap
while I have the chance. The helicpters are getting very annoying.
You hear one every 10 minutes or so, anyway toodles.
Ps. This is what I had to see since last week, signs all over the town, telling you of the summit. It was crazy! Below is where it took place, there were a ton of police but like I said, I didnt get any good photos becuase I left my camera on my bed. *sobs*
