Well with just a matter of days to go in true to be wed style Dusan and I have been seperated for weekend of debortary.
Dusan,Carlos & Marcus will do London Pride, Area and the Colluseum, while Mikey and I are checking out the sites in Amsterdam.
Our flight was late leaving but we found ourselves wandering down the road to our hotel around 5pm. A nice appartment style hotel in the heart of the city, bordering on the Red Light District. Now I had heard stories but I guess nothing really prepares you for whats in store.
As you walk down the street the Waff of Marujanna comes flowing from the endless coffee shops as its legalised. Every 3rd shop has a marajuana leaf in the window. Further down nearer the canals and the neon signs you see the prositutes standing in the windows trying to flaunt their wears. When we walked down a particuarly narrow alleyway, Mikey was caught by one of the ladies wearing nothing but underwear she asked "Why dont you come in for some fun". Little did she know that his a big old poof.
After a Chinese dinner we found our way to the gay district and seemed to have walked hours. A quick shower later we decided to take it easy and stay local tonight and so went to the recommened Gay Bar Cock Ring. At 1030pm it felt like a school disco as people were lining the sides with drinks, but like every venue in Amsterdam being beju in size, they fill quite easily with a large selection of cuties.
I dont know if it was sheere exhaustion or just old age but we only lasted till around 1:00am when the strippers had finished on stage. Funny they never let the audience touch the strippers when we saw them at the white Swan. We made our way back to the hotel up our windy little street filled with its Neon Signs, Pot Smoking Coffee shops and prosititues on every corner. I suddenly came to the realisation that this was exactly like Diagonally from Harry Potter.
Off to Van Gogh this morning. More soon. TTFN
