Hallo from Holland!

It is 7:36 AM in the Netherlands right now. I left Amsterdam yesterday for den Hague (The Hague) a city 45 minutes south of Amsterdam. In comparison, the city is quieter and smaller. I miss Amsterdam already.

What I miss about Amsterdam:
  • Removable open urinals on the street (guys are so lucky they get to pee out in the open and it's okay)
  • Sexually explicit sourvenirs (who wouldn't love to play cards with a picture of a couple having sex on the back of it?)
  • The ratio of boys to girls in the red light district (where did all these guys come from? Am I the only girl checking out the red light district?)
  • The possibility of not only being run over by speeding cars, but by trams, mopeds and bicycles as well (it makes crossing the street a fun game).

Ok, seriously what I really like about Amsterdam:

  • The quaint, crooked houses built hundreds of years ago.
  • How small the city is, you can walk or bike almost anywhere.
  • How nice and helpful everyone is - so unlike Paris!
  • Indonesian food - yum!
