After
10 ½ hours of flying and about an hour of sleep since Wednesday morning, I went
off to explore the city of Amsterdam at 4:00am central time (11:00am
Amsterdam). I took the train into
the city centre even though it was dreary & rainy. I was glad I did! It was
only misting; kind of reminded me of foggy San Francisco. I walked around for a bit, up and down
the narrow cobblestones streets filled with one pub after another. It all
seemed like a maze. Bicyclists are
everywhere. This seems to be the main mode of transportation. I also took a
canal cruise. There are over 80 different canals and 2500 houseboats. This is a
really cool city! I could stay here a bit longer. Lots of pubs, cafes, cheese
shops, & bakeries to check out.
