My flight to Amsterdam was delayed an hour and one of the beligerantly drunk Englishmen (somewhat redundant I know) wasn't allowed the board the plane. Flight went smoothly and I arrived at the Am'dam airport around noon. Took the train to the main city train station. I fouund my way to my hostel which was very large and well maintianed. The one thing I noticed about the hostel was that there were so many young kids. Apparently there were a few school trips there, which to us would be like taking a field trip to Las Vegas, which likely wouldn't fly in the States. I went out on my own for a bit, got some food and headed back to the hostel. I met some cool travelers around my age at the hostel bar. They were all doing a eurotrip from Rhode Island. We all hit the town, and made it a very 'Amsterdam' night. I'll leave it at that.The next day they had all taken off for their next destination so I walked around the city a bit and ended up doing a guided pub crawl that night. It was fun, but nothing special, I met a couple girls from Canada, but ended my night prety early because I had to make an afternoon train to Munich. I woke up, checked out and headed to the train station, but had to stop and have some of Amsterdam's famous fries and mayo. If I could compare any European city that I have been to, to San Francisco, for obvious and more nuanced reasons.
