Hamsterdam...

Have made it to Amsterdam...really pretty city! We are staying in a canal house right down the street from the hemp museum- sweet! :) We also saw some prostitutes in the windows of some places and storefronts for live sex shows....eeeeeeewwwww is all I have to say about that!

It is pissing rain here and quite cold so we are intermittently breaking up being tourists with cafes (not the "coffee shop" kind), the ones that actually serve coffee and beer.

Just wanted to let everyone know that we'd made it. Having dinner with an American friend of a friend tonight and then hoofing around the city again tomorrow.

Dutch is impossible to decipher and really impossible to say. We've been cracking ourselves up all day. We are staying on Oudezijds Achterburgwal. Anyone know how to say that one?

It looks and sounds like you had a fabulous time, Liz! Those stairs ... well, it's a good thing you're doing this gig while you're young. I'd have been sleeping on the street.
