a walk around amsterdam...

and yet, i'm strangely tempted to try it...

do you see the bubbles in front of the oudekerk?

these people are making them. we were walking to the train station to make reservations for our trip to paris, and to see if we needed reservations for the first part of our journey beyond, into germany. afterwards, ryan realized he was a little bit hungry (and by realized, i mean it was 2:30 and he hadn't eaten. you should know this makes ryan cranky. and immediately cranky). so i suggested that we stop in one of the coin-vended fast food restaurants. i thought it might be funny, and anyway it was cheap. we had plans for a big thai dinner. 


ryan's getting a hamburger. 

and taking it out. 


but what is on the burger??? it is sauce! and it is a creamy sauce! 

ryan will eat no such burger. 2 euro gone. we walk for about 2 blocks when ryan became THE BEAR WHO MUST EAT FOOD NOW OR HEADS WILL ROLL DOWN THE DAMRAK, DO YOU HEAR HIM??? and so he walked into wok to walk, a chain of restaurants where everything is cooked in... oh, you already guessed it. a wok. 

so i got coconut curry noodles, because we were not having thai food today. these were actually really good, probably because i also had not eaten all day. this is when the rule of breakfast OR lunch went into action. so the bear will stay in hibernation. 

i can recommend it.  then we kept walking down and found this store: 


kira, i need you to fly out here and buy a few things for me. 10% off for you. maybe if you bring sophia, it'll be 20%. she's cute enough for an extra 10. think about it. 


because i really need this gnome. 

we had a dinner at home, since we won't be able to do that for a while on our travels





ryan had a spit roasted chicken from the market down the street. the man only sells chickens on mondays. 

and tropical fruit for dessert. yes.
