Artis a zoo with education and entertainment Jul 11, 2009

Artis is the Zoo in Amsterdam.
During summertime they have the so called ZOOmernights where they stay open until sunset (which varies every day of course) and during the evenings that have all kinds of things organized. From entertainment to picknicks to tours backstage.
Myself I visited the kitchen where the prepare the food for all the animals in the zoo and I had a backstage tour with the elephants on how they are trained and treated.
An evening well spent.

Natuurlijk hoort Artis er ook bij als je Amsterdam wilt leren kennen, dus toen er weer eens een logeerpartijtje was waarbij Kelsey en Michael kwamen logeren besloten we hierheen te gaan. Door omstandigheden kwam het beter uit als we pas wat later naar Artis gingen maar in de zomertijd… ZOOmeravond in Artis // ZOOmernight at the zoo

One market was mostly ordinary food and old things, and the other market was mostly cool arty things and posher food. The Jordaan also homes the only vintage clothing shops I've seen in the Netherlands and some gifty-jewelry-arty shops, and the cutest baby stuff shop I've ever seen. Nobody I know has babies, so I removed… shopping

…good sum for littering) :-P Point is, we have other things to offer as well, like Mme Toussauds (museum of wax statues), Artis (city zoo), The Anne Frank house, the distinctive city canals (Yes, all of them are worth checking out), the Rembrandt house, the van Gogh museum, the Rijksmuseum, the Jewish historical museum (A'dam has a very rich history with Jews), the Leidseplein, the Damsquare… The Tourist Trap #2

Sex museum was a laugh for the British and arty for Europeans, so 3 euros each and we went in. Very, erm, nice. Enough said. Sightseeing tours on the canal is a must and at 7.50 euros is a bargain. A trip around the centre of Amsterdam, and looking at famous buildings, and then… Amsterdam, Netherlands
