Eindhoven Day 12

Before arriving in any of the countries that we were visiting, i did my research.. see if there's any exhibitions on or whatever. They had one on in Eindhoven. That's like 45mins drive from where we were staying.
we were off to STRP festival. Light, sound and technology festival. Weird stuff.

So we set out on the long drive. Long drives cuz we have long chats and the locals tell you about history and the dutch jokes.

Yea. So you see.. Weird stuff at the exhibition. Loud weird ear piercing audio experience.

you can visit the webbie if you wanna know more.

The expo was held at the old Philips (the electronics company) factory. The original. It's kinda messed up as you can see.



After the expo, we headed around the town of Eindhoven to check it out. (that's us driving aorund town!) As you can see from above, the roads are empty cuz it's Sunday!
All the shops are closed. And it's custom that ppl stay home and hibernate. Ghostly roads.




Eindhoven, birth place of Philips. There are Philips buildings everywhere!




A Dutch boy at the road side picking flowers for, i suppose, his friend.





Yeap, we needed a tea break, so we settled down for a dutch sausage and some fries.
