Damn!

Day two in Amsterdam and we were excited as we'd booked a 4 hour bike tour through the city and out into the countryside. I was mostly excited as this was a tour the girls couldn't fall asleep on!


We were joined by 3 more girlfriends of Marg and Jodie's; Claire (new to London), Sim (who lives in Amsterdam) and Georgie (who lives near us in London). So it was me and my harem of 5 girls for the rest of the trip... Sounds great, right???!

The tour was awesome, we got all the history of sex and drugs in Amsterdam and then rode out of town to see a real live windmill and cheesefarm (obviously this is why Marg was excited about the trip).


The crazy Dutch farmer that made cheese and clogs was a bit of a character, he could speak 20 languages and make a wooden clog in 1 minute (that's going to look good on any resume).


The bike tour then visited the famous (yet crap) Amsterdam Hilton where Yoko and John spent their honeymoon and took their famous in bed interviews. we then rode through a beautiful park and on to the city to finish off with a quite shandy.


After we dropped the bikes off we went for a walk in the sudden thunderstorm towards Anne Frank's house. Don't know who Anne Frank is? well you're probably a bloke then because all the girls were so bloody excited about this and and all I wanted to do was go to the Red Light District.

Anyway we had a 'great' time lining up for this house/museum for 2 hours.
After the 15 minute trip through the house it's self we all headed back to our hotels and got ready for dinner.


Dinner was at another beautiful little resturant right on a canal. We all got quite merry and ate fantastic food. Again, being 1 guy with 5 beautiful girls is really... fun. Na, it was a brilliant night and Sim showed us all the sights of Amsterdam the locals only usually see.

We had a great time and can't wait to go back (and see the bloody red light district!)
