... dykes. Like the rest of the Netherlands, it was a clean town, with brightly painted buildings full of some of the most friendly and kind people that I've ever met.

The crew took off on their own in Marken while me, Wesley and my dad, Steven did our own exploring. After a few hours, we called the crew to meet us at the Tender to head over to Volendam, a larger city with more tourists, just a few miles away.

What a great adventure. I'm grateful ...

... order so you can see the progression of the city. We both enjoyed the museum a lot and ended up spending at least 3 hours there. From there we headed back up to the library, which is where I am typing now. Don't know what the plan is next...I'm assuming and hoping that it involves finding our next meal! It's also our last full day in Amsterdam. Even though much of our time here was rainy and cold, I enjoyed the city very much and look forward to visiting ...

It took us all of 18 minutes to get to Amsterdam Central Station and from there it was another 5 minute walk to our hotel; the NH Barbizon Palace (http://www.nh-hotels.com/nh/en/hotels/ the ...

... all the canals skinny houses. I saw the skinniest house here yesterday. It was 1.5 meters wide. The reason they do that is because they get taxed on how wide there house is. So they build them high and not wide, its pretty interesting. I tryed to get a bed to stay here one more day so i could go see the country side and wind mills but ...

... the guys to see a sex show- well I think I had thought it would have been a lot betetr or maybe just different??? The first couple was insane it was like sex ballet with all this choreography! i was laughing and then they had this stripper who didnt take anything off for a whole song she just danced around! I wanted to boo it was so lame and then when she DID get naked she was kind of... plump?? whatever i guess everyone like something different ...

... You certainly can tell which coffee shops serve it, when you walk by the smell is dominating. Back onboard for a while and that night we went on a walking tour through the Red Light district. I suppose you can't come to Amsterdam without including this on your first visit. I thought it was a bit tame really, perhaps a lot of the girls (and guys) were watching the football. Sunday morning time to disembark, quite an anti ...

... joined a bellydance course! Only had 2 lessons so far, not a natural talent, but there is still hope as I have 11 more lessons to go ;-)) It's much fun to do, even bought one of those Indian belts which make lots of noise when you shake your hips. Well, whén I shake them ;-))) Decided to do this for several reasons as some of you know. Lets say it is part of my self reflection and development! Also had my second regression hynotherapy session last ...

... is REALLY cool! There are a lot of Dutch hotties everywhere, especially riding around on bikes. The women are very fit, probably because of all the biking they do! I saw what appeared to be a VERY attractive woman sitting on her bike at a red light. As I approached, I got a side view and realized that it was a guy! Noooooo! But then I walked around the front and then realized it was in fact, a GIRL!!! Wrong, just plain wrong ...

... millions of us were inspired by visionary hipsters like Sinclair and chose to revolt. Nobody ever walked on the moon until we sent a human there to do it in 1969. Just because we don't all live in space, doesn't mean that the Space Program was foolhardy "idealism." To dig that era is to dig that it was a time WHEN HUMANS FIRST WALKED THE MOON. Everything was possible! **** the rules! DEMAND THE IMPOSSIBLE! But if you desire to walk on the moon, first you gotta get a ...

... heaven. Don't miss it! Start booking your flight now!). Yesterday I represented team USA running in a 5K race (well at least in my head I did) to the spectators I was just some wierd girl in funny clothing (I do not have running shoes or clothing with me) coming in toward the back of the pack, but I was quite proud of myself since I ran the entire way and I hadn't trained since I left the States. In the evening ...
