Amsterdam is all that we imagine it to be. Flat, watery, bikes everywhere, some of the houses are disappearing into the subsoil. The windows are huge and the stairs so narrow that everything has to be craned into the house. It is a smaller city than I expected - only 750,000 people. We went on a canal boat ride and then for a walk but it was flying visit.There are many houseboats, the number of registrations has been capped so they are very expensive. Many of them have been taken over by squatters.
Amsterdam prides itself on its flowers and this is a small street market with bulbs, blooms and dope starter kits. (One in Graham's case - dont tell him.)
