Amsterdam Over Nights

The first night we hung around town and ate dinner at a super cheap pizza joint delish, then went down the main street checked all the shops out and then made our way to the red light district, its better there than in the day time- it's just amazing to see all the lights and allys lit up, i believe it is quite funny as well. We got into the hostel and first couldn't sleep because it was way to hot so we cracked some windows and tried sleeping. We got about two hours of sleep before our roommoates came in at about 4am and we're hella loud and drunk. Ugh pissed us off because they went right to sleep and they were snoring horribly....horribly!!, seriously it was bad. we only got about 2 and half hours of sleep that night. Got up at about 9 and out of the room at 10 but missed the free breakfast, damn. Then we walked around, went the the rijks (idk how to spell it) museum checked out art work and some 16th century stuff really interesting. Then made our way over to the van gouh museum but the line was freakin long and it was 15 euro. So we walked to the heineken brewery it was legit we got pictures of it too. Then chilled in vondel park for 2 hours and played some pool in the stayokay hostel. While playing pool we got ourselves a brewdog that set us back a few euros, shoulda just got the pitcher lol. Went into our room and it was like hitting a concret wall of hash, the essense of herbs our roomies were rollin´some J´s and were fittina (fitting to) get high as a kite, damn brazillian ppl. They went out to a coffee shop and didn´t see em the rest of the night. This morning we attempted to go to the anne frank house but the line was already wrapped around the whole street block, picked a good day to go huh? not! Went to the red light district and then bounced home cause we were tired and a good free meal!

  1. Ok, Steve, the first night/morning I can see why you were late to the Van Gogh Museum, but the second day you missed the Anne Frank house, come on, is it the typical sleepin' in Steve style?? Cameron, light a fire under him! Just kiddin'. I received the picture of you (Steve) at the Heineken Brewery, which I passed on to a few people. Looks good! Seriously, glad you are relaxing and having a good experience! (Back to the red light district???)Sounds like the orienteering training is being ultized? Laura and MaryAnn took me to dinner last night, were your ears burning?? OK, have fun in Brussels and continue to be safe. Interpretaion: watch out for the contact high. :#
    Love you guys!

  3. Sounds like you two are having a good ol' time! Can't wait to see all your pics. Bummer you missed the Anne Frank house - maybe try and catch it your last week there. But come on, you really expect us to believe your roommates were the only ones in that bunk sampling the local goods? hehe

    Love you!
