Amsterdam

i got back on friday from all of my travels, i had an amazing time seeing, doing, going, etc to all of the places that i made it to. But i am very glad to be back in copenhagen in a familar bed.

first stop was amsterdam, i spent about a day and half in amsterdam, which turned out to be the perfect amount of time to spend there. amsterdam was great, canals everywhere, friendly people, windmills, and a great vibe. i had a lot of fun exploring the city on foot. the first night i just walked around the center of the city and explored. The next day i took off to see more of the city. first i walked around the harbor. I then headed to see one of amsterdam's few remaining windmills. After this i went to three open air markets, which was cool, they had a lot of crazy and random thigns. i ran into the filming of a daily show segment twice, something about dutch people not being able to vote for obama because they aren't american, and they gave me a button, so that was cool.
later that day i meet this australian couple saying at the hostel and i hung out with them and another girl from the hostel for a while but they all went back to the hostel pretty early. So i bought some french fries (vincent wasn't lying when he said they drown in mayonnaise) and was walking around when i ran into molly and her friend (molly is in my business program in copenhagen). They were hanging out with some aussie guys (aussies are everwhere in europe) so i chilled with them for the rest of the night. 4am the next morning i headed for madrid (via ryanair which was a huge mistake, never trust ryanair)
