Our last full day in Amsterdam

A successful and restful visit in Amsterdam. Everything comes to an end.
Sol and daughter had made a tentative peace. She learned a great deal during our short stay, so did Sol.
I was basically the wingman on this chapter of our adventure.
Sol spoke about a visit we made to a woman right here in Amsterdam. A famility friend of Sol's back in Melbourne had asked him to see if he could locate a woman living in Amsterdam for the last 30-40 years. Her friend in Melbourne had toured Europe with this woman when they were in their early 20's. One of the girls came home, the other found love and stayed in Europe. Somehow along the way they lost contact with one another and Sol was given a mission to find the long lost friend.
We walked into a local Police Station and asked for their assistance. All they could tell us was that the person we were seeking out was actually still living in Amsterdam. They were not able to elaborate for privacy reasons but their answer confirmed she was still local.
It did not take too much digging to find her and the look on her face when she opened the door to be handed a letter from her old girlfriend in Melbourne was priceless.
Mission accomplished.
