ok so yeah i finished my paper a really long time ago but got too busy with other stuff to write..but no worries im back for a bit..well a couple days haha..
so who would have thought we would have ended up at the police station in amsterdam..it wasnt too fun..oh before you start thinking what i know you must be thinking, we were there to report a crime. we got robbed by the people at the heineken experience. We checked our bags so we didnt have to hold them through the museum and stupidly didnt think to take our money with us..and the staff at the establishment stole our money total between two of us over 200 dollars.. i was luckier that my friend i only lost 40-50 euros and she 90. That was definately not so much fun.
Overall we enjoyed the trip. Amsterdam was a bit disappointing, it nearly was only sex shops, coffee shops, or food. It got old fast basically. I mean we did do the whole space cakes and coffeeshop thing..
..we kind of thought we were missing something else. The city with the canals was beautiful the rain didnt make for a nice strolling enviroment. I definately enjoyed being able to visit Anne Frank's house which is now a museum, that was amazing. The van gogh museum was pretty awesome too we saw another one of the sunflower paintings which was different from the one we had seen in London.
We took a canal city cruise and it was wonderful to see the city that way. The houses and buildings are nearly all crooked and some leaning on eachother. It is realy cool as you can see from my pictures..
Everyone there owns and rides a bike to get around. There is even a bike parking lot which holds thousands upon thousands of bikes.
while getting robbed at the heineken experience wasnt so cool..the place really was awesome..they had this one room in which you could pretend you were a dj and control the music and lights in the room and videos on the screen..
And last but not least, the food was great! we found this amazing falafel place which we ate at twice because it was so good! On sunday in the rain we found this pancake house which was absolutely amazing. It was adorable you had to walk upstairs to get to the room and there were 3 tables and a mini kitchen in the open. These two guys sitting at one seated us and they cooked our food..it was so handmade and i ordered apple juice and it was fresh! like freshly squeezed apple juice it was crazy. of course we went there for their danish pancakes which are a bit thicker than crepes with a bit of a different taste. I ordered a banana and chocolate pancake and this is what i got...
amazing!
