1) Amsterdam is quite a beautiful city...although I don´t think that many of the visitors actually get to appreciate that. 2) Middle aged English women who are stoned for the first time are hilarious. 3) Window shopping has a whole new meaning for me now. 4) Avoid the windows with the blue lights in the red light district. 5) Book a hostel for a weekend visit - it will save 4 hours of searching 6) "Wok to Wok" (Asian fast food in Amsterdam)...solid gold! 7) Don´t walk in the bike lanes! 8) Don´t walk at all...get a bike. 9) Stay out of the canals! 10) What was with the lizards in the park?!
