Mybe the Christians aren't so bad after all!

Ha ha, just kiddin Rachey! But seriously, this Christian hostel I ended up in (I decided it would be good to have a place in Amsterdam where there craziness is def left outside) is the best so far. The people are so nice and helpful, and it is super clean. I'm sure glad "the lord" called them to run a flop house! I saw through their offer of a free dinner and a "program" though, so don't worry I'm not getting brainwashed into their lifestyle.

Other than that Amsterdam is good so far. I headed to what the guidebook called the young hip area last night and it was def both of those things. I hung out at a coffeeshop for a while and got stuck talking to this old American guy who seems to have fully embraced the hippie lifestyle here. I passed on his offer of a boat ride today though, I didn't dodge the Christians just to let myself get kidnapped! Then I had dinner (sushi finally, yay!) and bought even more souvenirs and headed back to the hostel. Got super lost for the first time but found a police station (first time ever in one mom, I promise) and they helped me out. Now I'm off to see some more sights and wrap up my last wknd of vacation!
