So last minute booking of a hostel was successful and I ended up at De Witte Tulp (White Tulip) where I've got 7 nights booked. It's right on the edge of the red light district, smack in the centre of Amsterdam, five minutes walk from Amsterdam Centraal and hundreds of shops... it's awesome.
After dragging my bags all the way from the countryside to the big city, all I wanted to do last night was collapse on the bed, maybe after having something to nibble on. These plans were foiled after I met my the two from Norway; Sandra and Mick. Very friendly and enthusiastic, they explained they were going on a walking tour of the red light district, and asked if I wanted to go too. I decided, hell, why not.
It was really interesting, I learned a lot of history and strange facts, and we ended up finishing at a bar... where we, along with two other Melbournians and an American, all ended up playing drinking games for aaages.
A bit more info at a later date, I have like 2mins left on my internet time XD ciao for now!
