On Tuesday we were up early once again and took the train to the airport. So we get on a train that says it is going to the airport, and it’s the train we thought we should get on in the first place. But, right before this stop, a women asks if we speak German (no we don’t) and she told us that we had to get off and switch over to another train because the train we were on goes back to the center of town. She was so nice and when we got off she pointed to the train we were supposed to get on. So we did ma
ke it to the airport and then got on our flight to Amsterdam! Like most of our flights, we had to get on a bus that then drove it to the plan. So we get on the bus, and this man gets on (he was probably around 40) and he just stares at me. I wondered if I had something on my face (besides beauty of course!) but he just kept staring. I looked at mom because I knew she could tell, and she was like uh do you know him? And I definitely didn’t. He was so sketchy! He kept staring at me the whole time and mom said he kept looking me up and down. Yuck. Anyway we had a good flight and we managed to get on the train to the center, but had no idea when that stop was. When the train finally did stop, it seemed too early to be at the center, so we asked some people and they said the center was the next stop. So we got comfy in our seats again, until all of a sudden they yelled, “it’s this stop”, as they darted off the train. In a scramble we grabbed all of our 2348 bags and hopped off the train. Scary! So we got to the outside and went to take a c
ab to the hotel, but the man told us that it was just a 3 minute walk which was very nice of him. So we walked to the hotel (not using the cross walk) and I almost was killed by a tram! Luckily he beeped his little tram horn and I got out of the way. So we checked in and went and found a laundry place so we would finally have clean clothes! Yay! We walked around, everything smelled like pot, yuck! We had dinner at the Hard Rock Cafe, typical, and it was very good! After we walked through the Red Light District! It was so weird! The girls just stand in their windows, sometimes bagging on the glass if guys walk by. I took pictures even though I am not supposed to. I’m a rebel. So anyway we did that and then came back and went to bed! So Tuesday night we went to bed around 12, and woke up around 12!
It was the first time we slept that long in a while! And it was so nice! So I took a quick shower and then we went and got some pastries for breakfast/lunch! We did a little shopping (although there’s not much in Amsterdam) and then got on the internet to book the rest of our weekend, which we decided we will spend in Florence. After that we went to the Anne Frank house. We got on the tram to get there and the driver asked where we were going so he could stamp our tickets. So before the stop on his loud speaker he said “Anne Frank house next stop”. We didn’t know if he usually did that, but that was nice because we would have been a little confused. So anyway we get off the tram and have no idea where we are going and are looking all around, and as the tram is driving away
we hear “Anne Frank house to your right!” We owe that tram guy big time. He was really nice. The Anne Frank house was good, but there were a lot of people which was kind of annoying, but overall it was nice. After we grabbed a quick snack, and then went through the Red Light District again, but it wasn’t too busy. We went back to the hotel to pack. My friend Doug from Perugia was coming to Amsterdam too! So I was able to hang out with him that night which was really fun!
