Heater

Our winter is rather cold (and long) this year, we had a whole week with temperatures below zero and a very cold wind so we didn't go out that much. Yesterday we decided to brave the cold and went to Amsterdam by bus and underground. Public transport has heating, but the railway platform is in the open air and is icy. But the newest item is a heater to warm yourself while waiting for your transport!

  2. oh you are very brave!

    It's been okay here, mild and rainy. Today we are having very high winds. It sounds like a hurricane outside.

    I hope you had a good trip yesterday. :-)

  5. Interesting how one device will get people closer together where otherwise they would tend to stay apart from each other.

  6. This is like the koolest thing I have ever seen. We have nothing like that here, you just dress warm, as it is always cold at bus stops and they are usually outside - however, in the cities, there are small glassed spots to wait in, but no heat.

  7. leuk dat er nu ook verwarmingen op het station zijn, dat had ik nog niet gezien. Ik ga niet met de trein als het koud is. Groetjes Dietmut

  8. Wat een mooie service. Beetje milieuvervuilend misschien... ;-)

  9. Heaters are pretty inviting places to stand. Cold winters are not very welcomed by people in Minnesota either.

  11. So there aren't any shelters at the stops? Our trains have inside heated space for waiting.
