We got into Amsterdam on the train and walked for a long time to find our hotel only to find that our hotel was really only 2 minutes away from the train...but that was ok because Michelle was waiting out front when we got there. Michelle is a friend of David’s from Celestine Vision and from Second Life. She used to live in Sydney but now lives in Scotland, which she is enjoying at the moment. Amsterdam is an interesting place...it feels like a college town, only there is no college. There are ‘coffee shops’ everywhere which do in fact serve coffee, but mostly pot. They give you a menu of which one side is drinks and the other side is different strains of pot, which seem to differ from one another. We went to Free Adam, which seemed to us to be good enough for us. (Actually we were looking for dinner, but didn’t quite make it that far because we got interested in going and seeing what this coffee shop thing is all about. We got 3 different varieties Bubble Gum, White Widow and Haze. Oh and we also got some cake with pot in it. Which reminded me of when I first moved to California and our roommate grew it (that is an interesting story, but I have told it so many times and I don’t want to ‘tuna fish’ sandwich myself.) ((‘Tuna fish’ sandwich comes from the movie I (heart) Huckabees. Great movie!))
We walked around and explored a little of the town and then back to the hotel room for a quick rest, which turned into the rest of the night. We are not big party animals...
