A Weekend In Amsterdam

During my time in the beautiful city of Amsterdam, I was able to visit the Rijks Museum, the Anne Frank House, IAMSTERDAM sign, tour a few flower markets (complete with cannabis starter kits), check out a cheese shop, get a taste of the Dutch take on Mexican food, and hit up a nightclub. I absolutely loved everything I did, and only wish I’d had time for the Van Gogh museum and canal cruise.

When I first arrived in the city on my bus, I was greeted by the contrasting view of gorgeous architecture and traffic.

Amsterdam 101

As I mentioned before, I went to Amsterdam for a weekend trip. I arrived Friday morning, and left Sunday afternoon.  Friday we spent wandering around, which I highly recommend, just to get a feel for the place. Amsterdam is beautiful, with its canals, houseboats, smorgasbord of architectural styles, and people riding bikes everywhere. It’s like a picturesque step back in time, except with modern bikes instead of penny farthings. And hella better clothes. People even uphold the absolutely adorable tradition of locking locks onto the canal bridges to commemorate their love. Sigh.
