Amsterdam Weekend
Well Amsterdam certainly is different. Lots of water, bicycles, porn and stoned people. Have basically spent my time walking around taking the place in. The canals and buildings are amazing. The water goes right up to some front doors.
On Saturday Jeroen came into the city and we went on a canal tour and walked about the place. We were going to check out a museum or something but the lines were huge so we did it cheap and just wandered. The canal tour was neat was nice to hear a bit of history and strange facts.
Sunday I slept most of the day. Went out for a dew drinks in the evening with a few people from the hostel. Went to a neat bar just near the main square of pubs. Had a few laughs. Was a good night.
Today I wandered around the Rijksmuseum - has some neat things from the "Golden Age" and a great collection of Rembrants and his partners. The paintings are amazing so old and yet the colours are so vibrant and the depth is so clear.
Tomorrow I head for Germany and Family. Bielefeld Tomorrow and likely Gadebusch on Thursday for the easter weekend. I can't wait should be a great week.
