Mice

Evidently, Amsterdam is infested with mice.  Locals speak of this in the blazee way of people who have thrown in the towel.  We are lucky that our apartment is recently redone, and thoughtfully sealed up.  So we couldn't figure our why we had seen some mice droppings and the odd mouse peeking out from around the fridge.  Through a lot of tiresome investigations we finally figured out that they are coming through the pocket doors. I'll spare the details except for the one unboring one:  we cought a mouse so huge (in a glue trap) that we had to look up online to be sure it wasn't a rat! 

Anywhoo, we bought a bunch of steel wool and plugged up the pocket doors, and voila!  No mouse evidence for like a week now.
