Am stir damn

Amsterdam... what to say about Amsterdam...

I can safely say that I have now seen more... stuff... then I would ever care to see again...


I walked through the red light district (during the day, I wouldn't do that during the night). They have a public urinal in the middle of the district... it doesn't have walls... I was going to take a picture of it, but there were people using it and I thought it would be a bit rude.

I'm not sure if I have mentioned it in any of my previous posts, but I am traveling with my mother... who wanted to go to the sex museum... it's quite weird to go to a place with porn all over the walls... it's even weirder if you're there with your mother.

I am never going back to the sex museum again.

ever.

I think that if any of you want to go to Amsterdam, you will need to know a few things.
1. coffee shops don't always sell coffee.
2. if you want to stay in a "safe" state of mind, don't touch the muffins... or brownies... in fact, just don't eat... or breathe.
3. if you are female, don't stay out by yourself after 1am... bring a man.
4. make sure you talk to someone about the tourist attractions... they actually have some pretty cool (non-sex related) stuff to do there.
5. in Amsterdam, second hand smoke doesn't kill, but it does get you pretty freakin happy

I'm not sure if I'll ever go back to Amsterdam... It's a pretty cool place and the people are quite lovely... but there is so much sex... and drugs... which might just be the reason the people are so nice.


on the bright side, we were upgraded to buisiness class for our 12 hour flight to Amsterdam :-D

photos to come :-)
