Amsterdam day 1

Woke up in Glasgow at jadyns house in theb we were off to the airport to catch our flight to Amsterdam! We arrived at about 4pm, and from the airport we took a train to central station. Then got off and walked to our hostel. Took a bit longer to locate the hostel than anytime before because we don't have service here. Only wifi when you can connect. So we didn't have google maps on the walk, and to top that off everything is in Dutch so you have a hard time reading streets signs. The streets are very tight where we are staying, there is only room for one car on the road, so you could walk to 5 different streets in not even 2 minutes because the streets are so close together. 

We got to the hostel, checked in and it was the dirtiest room I have been in so far! My bed wasn't even made! I had to ask reception for clean sheets because my bed was still in the shape that someone had just slept in. And the reception lady was 1 of the top 5 worst customer service workers I have ever dealt with in my life! So rude but not gonna get into that because Amsterdam is SO BEAUTIFUL! 

Oh my goodness Amsterdam is so pretty everywhere we have gone it's so nice! Such old talk buildings that are all right after one another, and everyone in this city rides a bike. The canals also make it 10 times more of a nicer city. It's all around one of the nicest cities I have ever been to in my entire life! 

We walked around after supper checking lots of different stuff out, going into random shops and just browsing. We picked up maps and stopped at places and planned out a little what we wanted to do over the next few days. Our hostel as not appealing as it is however is in the best location possible! Right in the centre of the city so it makes everything so easy to get to, and it's right in the middle of all the action going around. It's also only 3 streets away, so about a 2 minute walk from the red light district. (Red light district- where all the prostitutes are.. they stand in windows with a red light looming above them wearing little clothing and try to get people to come in.) Ya fun times in Amsterdam..
