Wow, I guess you can't talk about Ireland as being part of the UK or the British Isles lol. I was talking to this Irishman over breakfast and totally offended him. He got frustrated but then patiently explained it to me, so that's cool.
I'm not sure what I am going to do today. I booked a new hotel for the next three days with Jessie, which is a lot nicer than the dorm style bunk beds I was living in this past week. I'm also going to head down to the train station to see about getting the Eurail Flexi-Pass. Maybe I'll head down to Vondelpark or a cafe and read a bit. I don't know, I am kind of getting tired of the Netherlands! I think I am going to cut this leg of the trip a little short and move on to Belgium on Wednesday. There isn't a whole lot here for a guy like me. I met a guy who came to Amsterdam for the drugs and prostitution, and even he is starting to get bored of the place.

There is more to the Netherlands than Amsterdam. Look into taking a trip to the countryside. Looking at a map, you are not too far from Haarlem. The North Sea Canal connects to the North Sea from Amsterdam. Try to see the dykes and windmills before you leave. It might not be as exciting as Amsterdam, but will give you a better feel for the country. Los Angeles or New York is not the United States
Hi, Daniel. Don't get freaked out but some of your Canadian relatives are reading these too. I hope you continue writing the way you are because it's great.
If you get a chance, go check out Scotland! The people there will brighten your day.
