Amsterdam day #2

Class started at 9 AM this morning and I was late, once again. My GPS sent me in all kinds of different directions once again (most of them I didn't see yesterday). Apparently, my GPS updates the planned route according to the traffic reports. I even drove on the A10 for a while.. Training was pretty interesting again but I already knew most stuff. I left my car on the parking lot and took the tram back to the hotel. Like I said before, in Amsterdam, you have to be aware of bikes and trams.. Now I realized you also have to be aware of bikes ON trams! It seems you can drag your bike along.. OFFICIALLY! There are bike stands inside the tram!

A word about the shops. In Amsterdam there are tons and tons of coffee shops (the places where you can legally buy soft drugs), shoarma shops (aka a Kebab shop), Indian, Pakinstani and Afghan delis and most of all, there are quite a few Albert Hein supermarkets.
