My Weekend in Amsterdam Saturday July 13- Sunday July 14

Saturday MORNING, we woke up at 2:30 AM (kill me) to go to the airport to head to Amsterdam!!! My first reaction was “woah dutch sounds really weird.” We landed in the Netherlands at 8 am and went to our hotel to drop off our bags. After that we went and had lunch and rented bikes for our trip. I have not ridden a bike in about 10 years, so at first it was a bit of a struggle… by the end of a trip I was a pro!! We biked to the park and had a picnic, laid in the grass, and enjoyed the beautiful weather. After we all took naps to prepare ourselves for a night out in Amsterdam. Amsterdam had the coolest night life and I had a great time!!!

Sunday morning we checked out of our hotel and biked around Amsterdam until we found somewhere to eat. We had lunch and then biked over to Ann Frank’s house, unfortunately the line was insanely long and we couldn’t go in. After that we went over to the Heineken Brewery for a tour! It was such a cool experience. They explain how the beer is made, you get to tour the rooms the make and bottle the beer in , and then they let you taste the beer. There are also rooms with interactive games and merchandise, which was really fun! When we were done touring the brewery we went to the park where I had the best waffle I have ever eaten in my entire life. Sadly, we had to go back to London after that but it was such a fun trip!
