Amsterdam! Day 2

April 10th- So today we woke up really early to get to our biking tour. For breakfast we went to Burger King. I know, great choice, but there really was nothing open at the time. Then at 11am we went to go on our Countryside bike tour. It was with this company called Mike's Bike Tours. It was so much fun and recommend it to everyone! We chose the countryside tour over the city tour. With the countryside tour you went through the city and you get to go see a windmill, go to a place where they still make cheese and make wooden shoes and also see the green country. It was a 4 hour tour, the cheeses were so wonderful, I bought some to take home! Kim almost bought some cow clogs. Saturday was so beautiful, we were all so lucky, because the rest of the weekend was rainy, windy, cold. Later for lunch we went to pizza for 5 euros, I think that we find such great deals! Then we went to the Red light district. It was interesting, there are red lights on the outside of certain windows. Which in the windows are women, wearing provocative clothing, bathing suits, etc... Prostitution is legal in Holland, which is what they are doing. You are not allowed to take pictures of the women, it is considered rude and they will get mad at you through the window. We also we to a coffeeshop. There they have legal marijuana where you can buy it. Yes I was in Amsterdam, so I am going to legally do it. It was an interesting experience.
