A new meaning to budget travel

In Amsterdam getting in touch with my Dutch roots! And writing this on a iPod, which proves my dedication. Bruges was absolutely wonderful! It was exactly what we needed after Paris, a small and quiet town with plenty to do but plenty of time to relax. It is the most idyllic place I have ever been or could ever imagine. Highlights include a pub crawl, waffles, and drinking beer by a windmill. We are all very in love with the city and with Belgium!now that we are in Amsterdam it is a nice mix between tourist and relaxation. We are trying new things and figuring out how to he effective backpacker. The one thing that never changes is bargain hunting. We will walk around for an hour in search of food that is one euro cheaper. It usually means a lot of pasta and refillable water bottles filled at bathroom sinks. Good thing tonight was elyse's birthday so we all drank free at four bars! Thank you Amsterdam!!
