Woah, look at the lights!!!

What a trip! Went out for food on Tuesday night on beautifully enlightened streets. Amsterdam in mid-December is definately a good idea!

We passed countless Steak Houses before we ended up in a Malaysian Restaurant in the Chineese quarter and did not regret the long walk. It was definately worth it! Great food somewhere in between indian and vietnameese. Very spicy and very yummy! Have to look for a Malaysian in Berlin.

Afterwards entered the Abraxas coffeeshop which our little guidebook recommended. Got ourselves each half a brownie but left after like 30 minutes since the music got on our nerves and went for a walk to the harbour instead. Had another muffin from the coffeeshop on the way which resulted in a very interesting walk home. The lights seemed more beautiful with every turn and I quite frankly have no idea how I navigated home since every now and then I thought I was in different city.
The night ended with the both of us lying in the dark in our hotel room, popping in and out of reality and trying to figure out which of the things on our way home really happend and which did not.

Totally missed breakfast on Wednesday since we got up as late as 1pm. Stopped at a café of which there are plenty and each looks more comfy then the last. Had a very relaxed walk to the maritime museum, some waffels and fries and later a drink at the Three Sisters pub.

Really enjoyed our first Amsterdam trip. Great atmosphere, good food, cosy cafés, nice architecture. We'll definately go again!
