Amsterdam

It has been so long since I have written a post for real. If you notice on the other ones, the spacing is all messed up becuase I wrote them on my phone, and for some reason, when I send it doesn't get the formatting correct. Right now im at a internet place in Amsterdam. Trust me when I say you don't want to see a picture of it becuase it isn't that special. In fact, I'm fairly certain the CIA should be told about this place becuase it looks like a terrorist training camp. The internet is only 1 euro per hour which is really cheap for here so I'm just accpeting the setting.

The rest of Amsterdam is really incredible. There is daring modern architecture mixed with old. The mixture is what makes everything so interesting. Yesterday, I rented a bike and rode around the city. The weahter was so nice. It was the 1st time I was able to wear a short sleve shirt since leaving Summer behind in South Africa. Well, Winter is back today and it is so cold. I returned the bike a day early and put my sweater and jacket back on.

I got to Amsterdam by train. Surprisingly, I really like the trains so far. The view from the trains are so awesome. I saw some windmills, which were cool, but what was my favorite was passing farms. There were some that had giant fields of yellow flowers. The faster trains are obviously much better, but tomorrow I have a 6 hour train ride to Berlin. I'm thinking about stopping somewhere just to break up the 6 hours of travel time. On the way to Amsterdam from Paris, I spent the day in Brussels. It was nice, but there wasn't really that much to see there. The couple hours I spent there was all I really needed.

I probaly could have seen everything in Amsterdam much faster, but I'm getting tired of moving so much. I want to find somewhere I like and stay there in one place for a week. I haven't stayed in one hotel for more like 3 nights in like 3 weeks. A lot of that just had to do with the way I plan everything, but some of it has to do with the fact that I'm now in cities that don't really have tons of stuff to see.
