Oh my god. Ok so Amsterdam can be a little closterphobic. The buildings are tall enough and the alleys small enough that you feel like a rat in a maze. There are like 5 or 6 canals and this whole city is shapped in a big U. I decided I'd go out for a walk and ended up hella far away. This city isn't that difficult to traverse. I mean it's mostly flat, the canals all look the same though, and you have to be ever vigilant with regards to the other modes of transportation. When people say that there are a lot of bikes in Amsterdam, I don't think any one ever really gets the point across. When some one says to you there are a lot of bikes, you might think a 5:1 ratio. ... read more

Ok so from the begning. I woke up at 6am then got the rest fo my things ready for my trip to Amsterdam. After eating breakfast I left to the train station to catch the 8:15 train. Half way to Amsterdam I realized that I didn't have my passport. Freaking out and ravaging my bags, spilling my things all over the lady seated next to me, I begin to have a nervous breakdown. Thinking that I must have it some where in a secret pocket that I just couldn't remember at the time I decided to listen so some Jazz to calm myself down. I got off at Antwerp Central, began to dump all of my belongings onto the nearest bench, break down cry, pant, and hyperventelate myself into a stuper of meloncoly. Realizing that I ... read more

I realized today that the majority of the discriptions I was writing were in my little book, and not to those who were reading this blog. I am super tired from today so I will return tomorrow to describe for you all that I can. Although to most of you these writings will come at the same time I assure you they are from different days. Until my day off, bon soir -Kati... read more

Ok so some of you might remember how I said that I was going to walk less today? Well I think I ended up walking more. Oh well. Shitty thing, and I should have realized this sooner, but I loaded the film in the camera wrong and as I was walking through the hugest park taking all of these pictures, nope none of them counted because there wasn't film. So I stopped got the coffee I should have before I left for the Park. Cooled my heels, then went back to retake some photos that really needed it. Then jsut headed east. I finally figured out that this city is east-west in orientation. I suppose it has only been two days, so just figuring this out isn't all that bad. I stopped into a sandwich shope ... read more

I can't even begin to describe the beauty of this city. Even though it's not as beautiful as some of the pictures of Paris I've seen, it's still really beautiful. The metro is fast, easy to navigate and seems to run on the honor system. You could not get any kind of pass and no one seems to be the wiser. Of course i got ,y passes, I'm just saying that you oculd. I'm not too sure how the metro is regulated, but it seems to work for them. I managed to walk the whole of the city today. I was out for 10 or so hours, paroozing around, stoped in for a couple of cups of coffee. When people say the coffe is strong, it isnt that it's more that the only coffee you get ... read more

All righty. I take back anything I've ever said about jet lag, and these damn wierd key boards. My typing has slowed significantly. After around 24 hours of traveling, I decided not to wait when I got out of the metro to orient myself, and ended up wandering around in circles just one street off for a few extra minutes. Finally made it, I've not looked forward to a cold shower in so long. It's 7am here so that'd make it 11pm in the states. I'm talking to you from the future! HAHAHA! Anyhoo other than being in the airports for a really long ass time, and being really tired, havn't had much time for anything else. Love yau'll -Kati... read more
