So we finally made it out of Iceland and have made our way back to mainland Europe, where believe it or not we are more than happy to be using the Euro again. We are also happy because our friend and new travel vagabond, David, has arrived. With our powers combined, we set out to conquer the the streets of Amsterdam. We make our way through many of the more colorful districts and proceed to down some Dutch pancakes. The following days are spent touring the Anne Frank House, Van Gogh and Rijkm...

Hellooo Amsterdam! Whoo hoo, I am here! The first things I run into, at the airport of course. Flat farmlands, with ditches (which I guess they would call canals) stretching for miles. The plane lands amidst the fields, and trollies over to the airport nearby. Tulips. Dutch style. The bathroom is even decorated with them. And it is really pretty. The airport itself is pretty cool, well designed, and as I realize later when departing, security checks are at the gate to each plane. How practica...

January 30, 2009- 11:00am The familiarity is the most striking aspect of this trip so far. I'm taking the same train I took when I last visited Amsterdam. The only difference is this time, I'm alone. I'm looking out on a canal situated just next to the grandest gothic cathedral I've ever seen, but it's fading it the distance. I'm heading towards a city I know very well, but I have the lingering taste of fear in my mouth, without reason. I guess it's because one of my biggest fears have always...

Amsterdam what an absolutely beautiful city. I had no idea that it would be SO GREAT. We arrived around 8 Thursday night and immediately tried to find dinner in the train station because we were all famished. We didn't find dinner, instead however, we found FRUIT SNACKS, CHOCOLATE COVERED WAFFLES, OREOS, and all kinds of food that reminded us of HOME. It was so nice to taste the sweetness of home because we are really food deprived in Italy. (not really, but kind of...) We took a train to the...

... walk around town and discover that the key attractions are indeed closed. ****. No worries because in my head I'm already sold on the sauna. All this walking around and pretending to look at the town is just for show. We jump into a cab and head over to Sauna Van Egmond. Sadly they tell us they are booked and probably won't have an opening until 5pm. So we take the time and figure we can hang out exploring the area around the sauna. I give the lady my number and tell her call if ...

... anything you want in them. Mine had ham, cheese, and pineapple. SOOOO good! There was also a music festival in Leiden Friday and Saturday Night. They set up barges in the canal to hold the concert stage. We went Friday night. They played mostly jazz music (not my favorite), so we chose not to go back after our LONG day on Saturday. We decided a wine and cheese ...

... was being able to find take-away coffees!!! You just can't get that in Pau. It felt so good to stroll down the street with hot cup in hand, full of delicious frothing latte!! It's just one of those funny little things I never thought I'd really miss, but after a couple months I realized that I do! Sadly, we had to head back to Pau on Sunday, everything went smoothly getting there and back on the trains, contra to the Barcelona trip. We spent the afternoon in Brussels on ...

Stopped for lunch just over border with Netherlands. Ruth always careful to stop at decent places with clean facilities and lots of food choices. First encounter with ordering food in a foreign language (Dutch)! Split a sandwich and a pastry - both good. Continued drive to Amsterdam. Ruth suggested we skip the diamond cutting as it is mostly a tourist trap - I had been dreading this activity, so ...

... of cheap yummy food, which is nearly impossible in Amsterdam. Eventually found a dodgy sports bar with reasonably priced food. It was actually yummy and the waitresses were really friendly. After dinner we went for a walk near our hostel. We literally stumbled upon the Red Light District. It was one long street along the canal full ...
