Amsterdam - city beyond - wine, women and weed..

look beyond the red light district, ignore the coffee shops and walk walk past the pubs.. walk to a square, or an obsure street.. i promise you will find something so interesting, you will stop by and gaze in amazment and hold your breath.. here's one of those moments. makes you wonder, did back street boys actually beat this guy to the top..

The world must learn, oil is dearer, the roads can't get broader, obesity is a curse ... take a step back to leap a couple forward.

its back to the cylce's... have you heard of the "big yellow cycle".. well, its time..

You can buy the replica's on the streets, look near the district, or just take the train, head to the country...well, go as far as you are not a tourist; indiactor - english will not get you food, signs and smiles will, you can throw the replica in the closest canal and capture the aura of the real mills in your senses... for take aways - try a picture, trust me, its only half as beatuiful..

The writing is on the wall.

I was indeed very lucky to be around that night, the enitre city was awake, all the musuems are opened until dawn breaks. On one my adventures, i walked into this hall, young movie makers questioning every protocol, every convention, questioning cliche's that needed answers a few decades ago, making statement which we still shy away from, well in amsterdam - you can ask, you can debate, and you can walk to the bar, which,btw, is in surrounding... during one of those walks down the stairs i saw one such claim...........

What is travel without hanging out with the local's, met this young lady at the botanically garden, on the "all night" musuem night, I introduced her to some india cha, she introduced me to the city, what better way than a bicycle ride, well i had to pedal.

I shall steal a line from a friend - lesser the people, lesser money - travel is more fulfilling. Thank you fluuer for showing me a city beyond women, wine and weed..
