amsterdam hates us.

amsterdam is not the city for us. it's cloudy, cold, rainy, creepy, and super sketch. and we don't smoke pot, so there really isn't a reason for us to be here... we went to the keukenhof today to see the tulips, but most of them were dead, which was rather depressing... and admission was freaking expensive. so we're not pleased with netherlands. we went to make reservations for our train to paris tomorrow. we can't get to paris without paying extra, because only high speed trains go there. the only train that wasn't booked at 6:26 am. so it's going to be another early morning, but that gets us out of amsterdam and into paris faster.... haha it's been a longgg day. we need sun, so we're thinking that we'll only spend a day in paris, because we need sunny, warm paris, and it's cloudy now, so we're revising the plan and heading for italy and greece as soon as possible....haha sorry, that's not a very happy blog....

so my friend pags had some things that she wanted me to blog... and if you want to know anything feel free to leave a comment, or email me (caroline.john13@gmail.com), or text me, or facebook me.... pags wanted to know how we're spending our money, if we've tried to read a newspaper, and if i've used the hairties that she made me pack.... we're spending our money on keeping us alive(hostels, food, water) we're spending a lot of money on water, which is kindof depressing, water is expensive here. the other money that we spend is on museum admissions, etc... we have been shopping a few times, and caitlin got some cute stuff... but i'm poor, so i haven't bought anything yet... i'm waiting til the end of the trip... we haven't really read a newspaper yet because the only ones we've seen have been in flemmish and dutch... we looked at a dutch newspaper this morning on the train... paris should be better for newspapers, seeing as i can at least halfway understand french... and no, i haven't used the hairties, not a single one, they're weighing me down, pags....haha love you.

love love love
