Wednesday: Today was my day. I stayed here until 4 in the morning watching the election results and was very tired. I slept until 11:00 and I did'nt get out until late in the afternoon. The day was cold and foggy, and my iamsterdam card expired. So I spent the afternoon in St Nicolas's church. It was interesting how I ran into this church, I was bummed that the museum I wanted to go to rejected my touring card and said it was expired. So I took the train down to Central Station to verify. Sure enough a 72 hour touring pass only lasts three days. What the hell was I thinking. So frustrated and wanting to at this point have a pint I head west out of central station and run smack dab into construction. So I back track and run square into St Nicolas. Yes Santa Claus. So I ducked in. It happened to be the only church not being renivated that was open. So I spent some quality time here.
I felt better leaving, and ran into a cool cafe that was tucked in at the edge of an alley called Skek. This was a cool looking cafe and appeared to have plenty of local feel. So I had a coffee here. I got talking with the bartendar about restaurants, her trek through chile, and other stuff. A worker started playing some music so I wrote in my journal and topped the stay off with a glass of wine. On the recommendation from Laura my bartendar I found an Indonesian restaraunt to have some rijstalf (sp). It was good day
