On a Lighter Note...Amsterdam pictures!

So when I actually did have a passport Erika and I went to Amsterdam. We flew on EasyJet airlines for only about £45 and stayed in a cool hostel for two nights. Overall the trip was awesome. We ended up meeting a lot of people: A group of American girls, a couple from Argentina and a couple from Italy, a group of Ohio boys, and these two guys from Australia - one of which moved to London last week and now we're all talking about possibly sharing a flat when Erika and I move out. Crazy, huh?

We did loads of stuff and I got to spend time in one of my favorite places in the world (Tokyo and Hawaii edge it out...barely). I had so much fun I'm already planning a return trip sometime this summer! If anyone has nothing to do for a weekend, please contact me. :)


We finally got the pictures uploaded although as it turns out, we didn't really have the camera at the most fun moments of the trip. Oh well, you can still see some of the city below:


The stairs to our hostel - they were sooooooo steep. I hit my head multiple times.



Erika standing by the huge "amsterdam" sign near the Van Gogh Museum

Me pointing at something across the canal (probably at a woman in the Red Light District)



Erika and I went ice skating



See the little kid falling right beside me? I pushed him! HaHa!



We had just left the Heineken Brewery when I spotted this gem of a bar: Palladium!

If you didn't have the camera for the moments that were the most fun, could you picture them verbally for us your adoring readers? Or do they involve illegal activities and the red light district?
