Amsterdam

My bro has arrived in the evening and we met at Centraal station in Amsterdam. Huge hugs, happiness. We walked in the pouring rain the flat. Some words about the flat. It is located in a building dated back to the 18th century. When entering the lobby from the street we can find some old-style statues and arm-chairs. Then need to cross the back-side garden, which is common to 4-5 houses. Green and quiet. The flat is slightly under the ground floor has some windows on the ground level. One big space is divided into 2 parts with a cupboard and an artificial wall. Kitchen, 2 beds, sofa, etc... a good one.
In the evening we walked all over the city, we were in the red-light infamous district, and we ate in the "La Paella" excellent spanish restaurant. Yuval, thanks for the tip, really I can't understand what a such glorious restaurant does in such a dubious neighborhood.
Today we walked all over Vondel Park and the Museum district. Then we went over a street in which all shops where or antiques. We saw a cool model of the Earth, the Moon, the Sun (replaced by a candle. Then the user should turn around a wheel and entire model starts moving. Only 550 Euro, only today.
Then I almost bought an old steering wheel of a boat. Well, tomorrow I might go back to buy it, not sure yet.
In the afternoon we met Szilvi and Gazsi, friends, who live here in Amsterdam. We ate excellent goat-cheese-honey sandwich in the University's cafe, and then went together to the Library, a 7-store most modern building with a very special interior design. Wonderful weather we had today, all-day sunshine. In the balcony on the 7th floor we drunk some wine and beer, ate some wok-stuff with chicken, until we ended up in a pub quite near to where we stay.
Another beautiful day in Amsterdam.
Hmm.... that steering wheel....
