Holland Part 3

So let me tell you about the shops in Amsterdam. I think it has something to do with traveling to a foreign country and being so far from home, but when I am away, I get insatiably hungry. I need to eat and try every single food and I eat 20 meals a day instead of 3. But what would you do when you are surrounded by so many delicious and awesome storefronts?

I'll have to tell you how we ended up somewhere outside of Amsterdam next, only to have it turn into the coolest day trip ever. But, that deserves a post of its own.
