thanks... and I will do. I'm just waiting for my friend to confirm that everything's confirmed... she's not the most reliable so until then I can't really get overly excited yet.

If you have time check out the old Heineken Brewery. It was 8 Euros and you get three glasses of beer and a great tour. And a nice buzz when it's over.

One of my friends sent me a postcard from the Heineken factory but I never got it :(

On the plus side though I did get the lovely parcel she mailed me from Amstersdam that brought much enjoyment to me and several friends!!

I am still laughing at your dodging bikes comment, Paddy!!

well that sounds like something I'm gonna HAVE to do... I'd also like to see the Ajax stadium... we'll see though. I had ONE thing I wanted to do in Oslo and I didn't get to do it so I no longer make plans.

That's awesome. I haven't been there yet (well once or twice when I was like 5 or 6) but everyone tells me it's a great city.

thanks Jen arrrgh... just want to have my flight tickets and know it's 100% definitely on. I was told it is 100% but with this friend unless I see the evidence, I can be sceptical.

The bikes are crazy! And if you're not nearly hit by a bike, then you're nearly hit by a tram!

It is worth it though!

That almost happened to some of the friends I was with. hehehe


We arrived in Amsterdam on Wednesday and came out of the clouds/smoke on Saturday.

PearlyOceans

Keep away from the mushrooms! A lot of tourists do weird things after eating them (like killing their dog or jumping of a bridge).
Have fun, hope you enjoy your trip.

We drove straight from Copenhagen to Amsterdam last June (tour).
We had no plans/reservations and ended up staying at the most sought after hotel/cafe there (BULLDOG). Amazing time, it helped that I was there with Coldie who invented the GRAVITY VORTEX BONG. The space cake pretty much did me in.
I passed out the next day on the front row rail at ROCK WERCHTER for about 6 or so hours after eating SPACE CAKE for Breakfast Good Times!
Have a blast and be safe!!

Are you going in March?? Man, I would love to go!!! If my trip to Spain falls through I just might. Although, I haven't totally ruled out moving to Ireland for a bit.
