bazelos 0 #1 December 22, 2006 So I though about it, and since it would be pretty shitty of myself to not go and see my folks back home for Christmas, I packed my bags and grabed a cab to the airport. I arrived a whole three hours early, my flight was ment to depart at 16:55, it will actually depart at 17:50. I don't mind waiting one more hour, but the most devasting fact is that, since it is a connecting flight, I have lost the last flight and I will have to spend 12 whole hours, till the morning flight, in Amsterdam. What could a fine gentleman like me do for such a long time, in Amsterdam? KLM said they will get me a hotel, so I guess there's nothing more to do other than sleep on it. Also, to whoever's been to Amsterdam, is there a dresscode for the strip clubs? edit: I have made a promise to myself not to indulge in any substance (other than alcohol and that in the form of manly beer - Guinness-), and have abstain from the party culture for three whole months, so unfortunately, I can't smoke the delicious purple haze.He who makes a beast of himself gets rid of the pain of being a man.

skymama 37 #2 December 22, 2006 You're going to be able to visit your family AND strip clubs. It's the perfect Christmas, you should be thanking KLM! She is Da Man, and you better not mess with Da Man, because she will lay some keepdown on you faster than, well, really fast. ~Billvon Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bazelos 0 #3 December 22, 2006 Now if only the Fokker (don't you just love that plane?) would land on the Texxel dz...that would be pretty much the best Christmas.

Rainbo 0 #6 December 22, 2006 You want to try the Grasshopper Club. You can catch any of the fine sites of Amsterdam city central from there. It is a restauraunt, bar, coffee house, all on different floors and sits and the head of the red light district.Rainbo TheSpeedTriple - Speed is everything "Blessed are those who can give without remembering, and take without forgetting."

Rainbo 0 #9 December 22, 2006 I simply note that as it is a good gateway to the rest of the area for newcomers. You can strike up a conversation and usually a good natured local will take you on your merry way. At least that is the way I got started. You're right that there are a lot of good places to go other than there. There are always places to look out for which is usually not mentioned by most. Avoid the Morraccan contigents while walking the streets, trouble can abound. I used to "window shop" for hours and had a great time for the seven months that I was working there back in the late 90's. You have to try some of the "triples" at the local bars if you want to experience beer like you never have before.Rainbo TheSpeedTriple - Speed is everything "Blessed are those who can give without remembering, and take without forgetting."

bazelos 0 #10 December 23, 2006 Ok so I found myself in Geneva, I am on a macintosh with a French(?) keyboard and all the letters are messed up...so I will try my best to make sence I have not been in the red light district in the night, but now that I did, a word of warning, not all the girls in the windows where born girls. I walked around the area for four hours, I actally managed to meet three guys (well two, the third was unconcious) from Bradford, my town, which I though was quity lucky untill I realised how many Brits actually go there! Also, I understand why someone would offer charlie and even pills to me...but one guy said he has viagra. I am 22 for fuck's sakes, do I look like I can't get it up??? Right, that's all I can manage on this thing, typing is impossible on a macHe who makes a beast of himself gets rid of the pain of being a man. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
