Today we began by doing errands, and doing all our laundry in the bath tub (an adventure in itself). We joined Joel for lunch at a Wok restaurant and wandered through the many canal-side streets until we found the cutest little Dutch pub that has ever existed. The bar-tender was characteristically Dutch, tall and very friendly. She even liked, and was playing Johnny cash, so we knew we had to stop. After a beer we headed to the red light district to see what all the hype was about. Margaret was particularly surprised at how not-pretty many of the women were, and as Sean pointed out, if they were prettier they probably wouldn't be dancing in windows in their underwear. We rounded out the afternoon with a much enjoyed scoop of ice cream from the Ben and Jerry's by our hotel.
We wandered all through the city, past Anne Franke's house, and on towards an Indonesian restaurant for dinner. Margaret and Joel had never had Indonesian food before, and Sean was excited to try it again, we were not dissapointed.
After dinner we went back to the cutest little Dutch pub ever and had a pint while listening to the evening live music.
