Sorry for taking so long to start writing the 2nd and 3rd day in Amsterdam. I've been very busy and also cos I still havent got all pictures taken on day 3 from my friend yet. I decided I'm not gonna wait till the pics are sent to me cos I would probably already forgot most of what happened lol

Day 2 - Checking out A'dam Historisch Museum

I still had the feeling of jetlag on my 2nd day in A'dam. I really dont like this feeling. I always want to stay up and go partying with my friends but I would be so tired and damn sleepy lol Anyway, the first thing I did when I got up was to check if my baggage was found and to be delivered to me soon. I logged on BA.com, all I got was "no information provided" *shocked* So i wrote an email to serviair asking if they know whereabout my baggage now. Still, I received the same answer that they could not log on to British Airway system. They would know as soon as they were informed by British Airway. I could only update my friend's address so they could deliver my bag to the right address.

At this moment, I only one top left. Basically its the one I wore before I changed to the one I wore on board. So Ange decided to take me to buy some more clothes just till I got my baggage back. We went to Kalverstraat, one of the most popular shopping street. I still didnt get used to or remember the road name or how to get from place A to place B. All I was aware was that god there're so many cute young guys!! hahaha

Typical bike in A'dam..and u can see Universiteit van Amsterdam in the background!
 
I really liked Kalverstraat the shopping street. It's so close to where I was staying. Only 10 minutes walk for me (cos my legs are short lol). On this street, you could find a lot of fashionable shoes and clothes from super cheap (not so different from the ones in Thailand) and the one I could not afford it! The weather was still a bit shitty today. It was raining again but it was never that hard. We were in the middle of the shopping street when we spotted Amsterdam Historisch Museum. There was sort of public museum that you could walk in without paying any entrance fee.  Please do not ask me about Dutch history. I have absolutely no clue.

David en the soilder - I dont know them about they're playing a very important role in Dutch history. Just what I was told lol
 
I was amazed by these two statues of David and Goliath (Please forgive if I spelled it wrongly) cos its really huge under the small building hehe Nothing special here except I was told about their story which I didnt get it that much. Anyone would like to explain who they are to me?

David en Goliath. Goliath was killed by a small David. You see how I feel in dutch town. Everyone was this freaking tall Tongue out

We actually stopped at Amsterdam Historisch Museum cos it was raining lol

Some FYI Laughing
 
So that was all pictures I took. I didnt take a lot of pictures today did I? Oh well, we didnt go out but shopping and wandering around the town. I got so damn tired and went to bed so early today. Yes jet lag alway sucks!

Day 3 - Visiting some friends at Cafe Cuba & Centraal Hostel

I hadnt done much today cos its been raining again today!! I went
out shopping for more clothes cos my baggage was still not arrived (WTF!! Its been 3 days). I had been responsed with Samantha from Serviair for past few days now. I told her I didnt have so much money to spend buying new staffs. Again, she replied, "she could not help much unless she heard from the airline".*sigh* I started to give up hope for my baggage. I just wish I didnt have to spend my money on clothings!

We then went to see Ange's friend 'Richard' who worked at Cafe Cuba. The bar was , to be frank, just like a normal typical dutch bar. One block but its the way they make their drinks that make them different from others. Richard is very good in making Mohito. Too bad I did not have a chance to try one he served. I actually watched making it and served to the customer. It looked really like a fun job. I think I ordered some hot cocoa cos it was a bit cold at the time. Ange told me he used to be able to get free drinks here cos he's got some friends working here but things changed as they started to use some calculation system that showed something like this is the amount of drinks you had served to the customers and this how much the bar should earn and collect from the customers. Sometimes its just hard to cheat on a machine!! lol

In front of Cafe Cuba, dont forget to stop if you are around Nieumarkt

Everytime I sit and take some pic next to this table, you would see at least a bottle of beer!

Later on that night, we went to see Remco at the hostel near red light
district hehe. It was my first time there. The red light district I mean. I was amazed how many displaying windows were full with a lot of  young good-looking girls. I was told that they earned pretty much around 700 Euro per day but still had to give at least 100 Euro to the pimp. I wanted to take some pictures there but Ange told me we're gonna have some trouble with those pimps so we better not.

I wish I could show the picture of Remco. I think he's got a "cute" personality I dont know how to explain hehe He told me he once came to Thailand and did not know much about Thailand so he hired someone to be his personal guide and there're a lot of things why we did but its very uncommon in Europe. Anyway, Remco did not charge us for any drinks cos they were still using old cashier machine at his hostel.  So niceeeeeeeee.  The bar was actually closed at 1 am (unbelievable) so we had to leave home peacefully.
