Amsterdam

Amsterdam was a refreshing burst of warmth for everyone; with the new temperature of 7 degrees, some even contemplated shorts. Bike shorts would probably be more appropriate. After an organised night out to the very seedy red light district, it was up bright and early for a bike tour of the city. The bike tour turned out to be one of the highlights, although attempting to do a never before done bike trick in the form of a stoppie on a cruising bike turned out to be not so much a highlight, fortunately the most injured body part from that was a bruised ego. Not fully aware that I was bordering on a cold, the energy from used from the bike trip rendered me useless for half the day and a much needed rest was sought in the hostel to prepare for the final tour night dinner and boat party.
