Just got back from a crazy big day of exploring Amsterdam on my own and getting lost in this crazy place which is all river canals and little cobbled streets - like literally row after row after row with intersecting more rows and more rows. It's pretty awesome! It started rather wet-ly - it was raining and I didn't have an umbrella and I could not find for the life of me how to get back to Angela's apartment to get another one.
Once I finally did get back, I hopped on Skype for a bit then was back out again - umbrella in hand and my new gloves (as my fingers were really cold) - heading for the Anne Frank House Museum. It was actually really cool and I got to walk through the annexe that Anne Frank describes in the book and read things from it. For once! A museum which I actually know things about! It was so interesting! And Sad. But a good experience all in all.
Also I found this BEER BOOT STEIN - dylan, helen and bill know about this!
Anywho! I'm super pooped from walking the entire city all day. So that's all. Just a quick update. But I bought two postcards from the Anne Frank House (WITH STAMPS!!! although the stamps seem to be just normal ones) and will post them to the first two people to comment on this blog :)

That sounds amazing Annie! And I think that navigating in amsterdam on your own definitely tops our late-night adventures in Japan. I've never read Anne Frank but the museum and the cobbled streets sound really cool...
