Went to Amsterdam last weekend

Might do a full entry about it, but here's a summary

Me, Adam, Charlotte and Sarah went to Amsterdam.
We stayed at the Flying Pig Uptown hostel, which was lovely, quiet and clean while still being near the action.
Saw a Houseboat museum
Saw the Homomonument
Went to Dolfinarium in Haderwijk and saw Walruses, Sealions and Dolphins, so very awesome. Video to soon be up on You Tube
Went to the Van Gogh museum
Saw the Anne Frank House, which was incredibly moving
Went on the Cat Boat with stray cats, so cute!
Had cocktails and drinks in lots of nice bars, plenty of belgian beer
Went to a few coffeeshops, they're much louder than you expect.

Was all great funski, although my feet are killing from wandering round! Wish we'd rented bikes, everyone cycles everywhere there.

Did some stuff off my 101 things list :

29. See a Walrus in the flesh - Dolfinarium, Haderwijk, Netherlands 2nd Sept 2006

31. Eat something new and odd. Frogs legs maybe? - ate 3rd Sept 2006 in Amsterdam

44. Take up drawing (whether by myself or in a class) - started at home Aug 2006
