The Holiday !

Hey there! It's been a while. Well, two weeks. And I had an amazing one with my trip to Switzerland (and England and Amsterdam). And I shall try to write everything about my experience here. Though I'd like to tell a certain someone more in real life, but it seems like that won't be happening. Oh well. I SHALL SAY WHAT I WANNA SAY HERE THEN :D Enjoy!

23rd May 2012 - Flight to Amsterdam

It was right after exams, my flight was on that night. Okay you know, there;s not much to say about this night, except that I went to another lounge in the airport, it was okay, but I like the normal Golden Lounge (it was under renovation) better. The one I went to was at the terminal before riding the aerotrain. Um, the business class in the plane was nice, but not as nice as the 747 plane. The in-flight entertainment was okay, I watched The Vow. They had the same movies as April, when I went to Japan. Damn, I must sound like some rich spoiled brat here. The business class tickets were kinda free, so.. And Japan was a um.. like "mengacau" or something as my mom called it. The distance to Amsterdam was 10,501km.

24th May 2012 - Amsterdam

We arrived at about.. well I don't remember, but it was early in the morning. I was tired, but noo, we had to spend the day out. Our hotel room was nice. It was huge, 4 singles, divided into two. As in, they connected two and two. We went out to Amsterdam central and walked around the city, met with my dad's student and his wife and toddler, ate lunch at a kebab restaurant there. When we were walking the streets of Amsterdam, something caught my eye, which was the Sex Museum xD I wanna go there, one day. When I'm married, of course. I mean, I'm intrigued. Then we went on the canal cruise, a one hour tour of the city on the boat. OH DID YOU KNOW, there are more bicycles than cars in Amsterdam. Bicycles were EVERYWHERE there, I was amazed. The houses in Amsterdam have a furniture hook, I don't really know what it looks like since I was half asleep on that boat ride, but it's to hang furniture to send to the upper floors because their stairs are too narrow. And when they move, they just throw their furniture out the window. We walked a little more, to the flower market. They sell a lot of flower bulbs, tulip bulbs mostly. But tulip season was finished when I got there, we were 4 days late. There was this cheese shop, I went in and tasted the best cheese in the whole wide world! It was cheddar I think. My mom took another kind of cheese, it seemed like it had black pepper in it, didn't taste good. Walked a little further and there was a hammock shop. Me and my sisters went crazy, trying as many hammocks as we could. A hammock is better than a bed, you know. In five years, when I have my own house, be sure to get me a hammock on my birthday, okay? The one made of fabric, not the one with ropes. It's expensive though >.>

25th May 2012 - Den Haag (The Hague), Holland

What's Hague? Den Haag is like a city about an hour from the airport (where the main train stations are). Um, we went to Madurodam or whatever the name is. It's like a miniature world. They made miniature buildings of Holland from.. well I dunno from what, something like Lego I guess? And there were people, tiny people walking around the city. Not walking, but you know what I mean. There was even a lady in a hijab, how awesome is that? xD So we spent like 3 hours just touring the miniature city, learning about a little bit of the history of the Netherlands. And then we went for lunch by the beach. It was hot, the sun was just.. hot. And it was windy, a perfect day to go to the beach. If only I could wear a bikini, oversize shades and a huge sun hat.. When it was a little bit in the evening, we went to a cafe and drank tea, like the rich :> I HAD THE BEST ICED LEMON TEA THERE ! It was sparkling water, awesomeness!

And I think I'll stop here for now, it's 4.40, I'm tired of writing already.
