Day 140 - Red lights

Last day!??!! Boo!

First thing after breakfast we got dressed up warm and went to meet the walking tour. It's actually cold and snowy here! We didn't make it for the tour so we just walked around and saw what there was to see while wasting time before the next tour started.

Chad saw (and smelled) his first coffee shops. From the outside only, of course. Horrible smelling places. We walked a bit through the red light district, through the main square and made a snack stop.

The tour was pretty much the same as the one I took when I first arrived with the exception of having a different guide.

After the tour we went for sushi lunch and then back to the hostel to pack for the last time. First we had to unpack everything, sort though and then repack. By the time we finished it was dinner time.

FEBO is a restaurant/fast food chain (only in the Netherlands as far as I know) that works like a vending machine. Instead of ordering at a counter, you put money in the right slot, open a door and take out what you want. Really bizarre. And strangely good...

To finish off our night, and our trip, we went for a walk through the red light district. It is such a strange place, especially considering it looks just like everywhere else in the light of day. We kept our visit short so we could get back and to bed early for my flight tomorrow.

I'll soon be back in Canada!
