Last stop... Madrid and Amsterdam

After celebrating with Paul and his friends in Madrid we headed out to our last stop, Amsterdam. It was a little rainy while we were there but it was a good time all the same.

Amsterdam is an interesting place filled with legalized marijuana "coffee shops" and leagalized prostitution. It is not only legal it is open and heavily advertised. In the Red Light District, the women stand in their booths right on the street and wait for customers. It is something that has to be seen to be believed.


Dispite these unique qualities, Amsterdam is beautiful. The entire city has been built on the water and is filled with canals and small tightly squeezed buildings. While we were there we took a 3 hour city walking tour as well as visited a few of the popular museums. One of the most interesting was the Stedelijk Museum, which was filled with non traditional and quite far out "art". It is perfect for Amsterdam. We also visited the Van Gogh Museum and saw the Anne Frank House.
