In Amsterdam everything goes! There are coffee shops that do not sell coffee! Instead, they sell Pot! You are given a menu and have choices from Chocolate cake to lolly pops. Its quite funny actually, everywhere you look there are people of all agaes walking around cracking up laughing!
Amsterdam is famous for its red light district, The whole group went to a sex show on the first night, this was eye opening!! When I say sex show, it was actually people having sex on stage.
We also wandered around the city, saw the girls in the windows everywhere. There is lane ways for everyone!! Big Girls, skinny girls , asian girls, and old ones to!! The Girls hire the windows for 150 Euros for an eight hour shift, they generally make anywhere between 500 and 800 Euros a
day.. I am so in the wrong proffesion!!
The problem with Amsterdam is that you just cant help but look, and there are many shops that you just wished you had never looked (Below!)
Of course, being that Amsterdam was our last stop on the tour we decided to make it a big night.
This is where it all went down hill!!
We hoped on a river cruise that just happened to have alcohol included in the price of the tickets for 3 hours. We were given bottles to shot, and then it was on with the night. We managed to drink the boat dry of Alcohol with 15 minutes to go on the cruise! I think they may be reassessing the alcohol included part of their tour!! The rest of the night was a bit of a blur.. What I can tell you is this..
Gus (Our tour Leader) Had said that we all had to be on the bus ready to go at 7am. At 6am, to Gus's horror we all got out of Taxi's from a big night, and ran in to pack our bags as he was having breakfast!
One person on the tour was arrested for Drunken and disorderly (He missed the bus and had to make his own way back!)
2 people were missing in action at 7am, however on our way out of amsterdam on the bus we drove past them asleep on a park bench!! (They were woken up and thrown on the bus!! Their belongings are to be posted to them!)
2 others to were to hungover, and could not rejoin the group. (they to, will make their own way back to London!)
All in all a successfull night out!! LOL.
The tour ends today and now its back to London with Davina and Carl. I will be having a quite few days in London to catch up on some well needed rest after the tour. And then flying to Amman (Jordan) on saturday. Next update from there!
