AMSTERDAM.

Today was our first day of being independant and completely free to do what we wanted. We travelled by double decker train to Amsterdam and what an eventful day we encountered there!!! Sex Musuem, Vodka Musuem and let's just say that the Red Light District made our jaws drop in absolute shock. Just seemed all so strange and a completely different universe to the softer touch of our British culture. Ended up pieing out on all the grub, was LUSH!
We are now completely knackered as we basically trecked around the entire city of Amsterdam. We didn't realise how many pretty little rivers there were in the city but luckily, like the rest of the country, Amsterdam is completely flat and so the walk wasn't too difficult.
Yesterday was a brilliant Dutch day too. We cycled into the town of Den Botsch from the villiage we are staying in (Vught). EVERYONE cycles here! E-V-E-R-Y-O-N-E. We parked our bikes in an underground car park for bikes, yeah you heard! We went into the beautiful church and tried a local delicasse. It was a small raw fish and oinion. Not going to lie, I (emma) quite liked the taste but the texture and the idea of it was not appealing at all. But, now we can say we did it! We tried to improve our Dutch by finding out the word for whipped cream turned out to be slagroom. Much laughter ensued.
