Shorn

I'd been procrastinating on finding a new place to get my hair cut, always hate to let somebody new hack on it.  But after breakfast at Cafe Nielsen I spotted a men's & women's hair place across the street and took a look.  The owner said she needed 5 minutes and didn't ever take appointments so I was next.

I had a seat and pretty soon the owner's adorable little 3-1/2 yr old daughter came over to chat away at me, not particularly bothered that I didn't speak Dutch, although mom tried to explain this to her.  She showed me her bucket full of styrofoam packing peanuts that were 'fish' to her, and when I showed her my Kindle she showed me her book, and described Nemo and his friends.  I think.  Possibly she was critiquing the author's view of fish evolution, but I kinda doubt it.  "Tessa" made those minutes fly by, then it was my turn to get cut and she toddled off to her play area.

Very happy with the job Jolanda did on my head too, so looks like I've found a decent place to get it done (for less than I paid at Alki).
