In the evening Jaiden, Esme, and I watched Nosferatu, a movie requested by Jaiden. I liked the movie a little and rate it a 6 out of 10.

In the early evening Jaiden, Esme, and I watched Cloverfield. I had picked the movie because Jaiden had picked Backrooms recently, hoping that she would like the movie, which she did. Even Alice watched parts. I liked seeing the movie once more and rate it a 7 out of 10.
A young woman is held in an underground bunker by a man who insists that a hostile event has left the surface of the Earth uninhabitable.
After watching Cloverfield, Esme and I took Lina the cat with us to get some candy from a nearby supermarket. On the way to the store Esme carried Lina in a bag. On the way back the skies turned dark and it looked like it was going to rain soon. Lina didn't want to be carried anymore and hissed at Esme so she let the cat walk on a leash. The last part to the house, Lina ran. A few rain drops were falling.
After this break Jaiden, Esme, and I watched 10 Cloverfield Lane, another movie I had picked for Jaiden. And she liked this one even more. I also liked to watch the movie again and rate it a 7 out of 10.
Centuries ago, a maverick terraforming team played God with a distant planet. Out of their vanity and spite, something terrible and unexpected arose.
Generations later, tormented scientist Alis is among the crew of the research vessel that rediscovers this lost outpost. But Alis wakes from nightmares of her own making to an all-too-real catastrophe on board. The rest of the crew has vanished – leaving only Cato, the belligerent mantis-shrimp captain, and Kern, the ship’s AI.
Searching for their lost fellows, Alis and Cato must venture into the darkness of the planet below. What did those ancient terraformers unleash? And will their last surviving crewmate become a greater threat than the world itself?
In the evening I started in Children of Strife, Children of Time novels book 4 by Adrian Tchaikovsky.
In the afternoon I finished The Pnume, part 4 of 4 of Tschai by Jack Vance. It was an excellent reread, I really like this book.

Near the end of the afternoon Jaiden, Esme, and I took a bus to Delft to watch Backrooms. Jaiden wanted to see this movie. Originally, we had planned to watch it last Saturday but we forgot to take Jaidens ID with us; you have to be 16 to watch this movie in the Netherlands.
After we had nourished ourselves we went to the movie theatre only to discover that our ticket was not valid. It turned out that I had ordered tickets for the wrong movie theatre! But it was no problem to change the tickets.
The movie: in the beginning it was very shaky footage which was hard to handle for me. But then the movie got more steady and became interesting. In the end, I rate it a 7 out of 10.
