Good Cab, Bad Cab
I’m in barcelona right now with Jan Willem (www.jwe.nl). We took a plane at 6 am and are standing in a huge line to grab a cab (with about 200 others).
This is somewhat odd for me. In Amsterdam it is the other way aroud. Cab’s are waiting in line to find a lost customer. But, the answer is not so hard to find, we’re heading to plaza Catalunya (30 minute drive) and it is 25 euros and that is a reasonable price, right? In the Netherlands you’d pay between 80 and 90 euros for the same ride! Thats outragous (how do you spell that?).
A lot of things are good and nicely organized in Holland but our taxi system really s*cks!

It’s outrageous.
And yes, it’s too fscking expensive to take a cab in Holland. Thank God (and the “IB-Groep”) for the “OV-kaart”!
I totally agree Martijn, the only thing is that I’m not (anymore) one of the lucky bastards having an OV
P.S. the ride was actually only 20 euros from airport to hotel.
