Notes from Amsterdam.

Ak47 at the Green house (adjacent to the Grand hotel) is a very worthwhile acquisition.

Fish restaurant adjacent to the Rai called Viasaandescheide (or something similar) quite worthy. Had the grilled seabream.

I was cheezed off at the wifi company doing service at the Rai. Flakey service. Very limited area of coverage. But they say I won Sony Clie Peg-ux50 in their daily drawing. All is forgiven.

Flashmob incident: Not a FlashMob(tm), but a something related. A group of highschool(?) girls assembled around the obelisk in Dam Square, posted a banner marked "a. a. '03-'04" and heartily sang. They weren't organized in the sense of having rehersed, but they were organized in the sense of being enthused. They sang in a vaguely northern European tongue, but I can't say if it was Dutch.
