amsterdam, travel

day 1 of amsterdam 2019

disclaimer: this will be long so read it while you’re pooping or need to fall asleep.

welcome back, loved ones. since I am clueless when it comes to all this website stuff, I deleted my old blog on accident 😀 and couldn’t get it back 😀 so here we are back to square one. I guess I only saved my london post, so that’s posted on the site.

today I started looking at my pictures of amsterdam and decided to reminisce on a time where my life was pretty darn cool.

maria and I flew with easyjet, I can’t remember if this airline sucked or not, but it was $60USD with our bags included so shout out.

all I remember at the beginning was feeling like a weight had been lifted off my shoulders. I think maria will be the only person in the world that will know why or maybe not, but as soon as we arrived in amsterdam all we did was laugh. 

right off the bat, I was sus of amsterdam on the car ride from the airport to our airbnb, I wasn’t with it, we were wondering why were even there, but shoutout to that one kid for suggesting this because it honestly ended up being such an incredible suggestion. 

so, we get to this airbnb and we call the person in charge and he was…interesting. he was shirtless and told me i needed to take a shower because it was hot skksksks. 

rip nikes

please enjoy this picture of my foot and part of my leg going downstairs. i’ve provided you with this because there was about 5 more of these flights of stairs? maria’s luggage is the size of a fucking beer barrel. imagine a minion beer barrel. that’s what her luggage is in a nutshell. we were staying all the way on the top floor. so since we’re weak links, we struggled with the minion beer barrel, my luggage, and the fact that we were somehow expected to climb all these fucking stairs when it finally dawned on the shirtless man, “oh you want me to help you?” siR.

we finally reach the top of this never ending staircase and our room was clean, spacious and had an amazing window that I wish I had taken a picture of. the only downsides were 1) the fact that we went to europe during a heat wave and they had no air conditioning 2) the staircase that we had to climb up and down every time we went out.

once we left the airbnb, we walked around and saw there were little shops, restaurants, and coffee places around which was super convenient, we also noticed the bus lines were right by all of this.

after exploring the shops, we decided that our first meal in amsterdam would be pizza. we walk inside the restaurant, and we are greeted by a lil old man working there who thought we were italian. he didn’t speak english, we didn’t speak italian. it was a time because we decided to ask him for the wifi, but he thought maria was asking him for his number, so he pulled out a paper and pen and wrote his phone number down for her. I thought this meant we were going to get a free meal, but nah fam, he was not with it. he was holding it down for his business. respect. 

once we were done eating, we embarked on our walking journey. attached are pictures of said walking journey. mind you it was like 9pm during these pictures, wHAT THE HECK!?

what I remember from our walk is thinking everyone was so nice and that maria and I were delusional because we thought everything was funny. while on our walk, maria found out that omar apollo was also in amsterdam, but we missed the show. HOWEVER, he was so nice to her and really easy going which made me happy for her since she’s a fan. such a talented, tall, majestic, latino king.

that’s it for today. thanks for reading. 

comment your favorite minion.
