13/07/09 - Amsterdam Day 1


Wandered around Amsterdam. Took a walking tour.

Update:
Our hostelmates were pretty cool. It was two guys from Swizterland and the sister of one of them. We walked across Amsterdam to get to the meeting place for the free walking tour.

The tour took us through Amsterdam. There was the Red Light District, the Anne Frank house, the narrowest house in Amsterdam (in which one cannot fall completely over sideways), and various other sites. There were a few amusing facts, like how some prostitutes have a cup of urine to throw at tourists who take their picture while they are windowing. Also, New Zealand has the highest percentage of weed users.

After the tour, we wandered around, debating whether or not to take a boat tour, which we decided against. We had some nice pizzas for dinner, and retired early.
