Good Morning, Amsterdam!
I didn’t remember when I fell asleep in a hostel. Upon a long flight with some nervousness in a place unknown to me, I was tired to have a deep sleep.
I woke up at 2 am in the middle of night, realizing I was a bit sweaty so I took a shower. Well, the water was too cold and didn’t come out of the shower head enough. Like a stream in woods, I needed to scoop up the water with hands. I managed to wash my fair and body somehow but I felt a bit cold, so I went directly back to my bed to get myself warm. I fell asleep without noticing again and regained consciousness at 7 am.
Into a breakfast journey
April 27 was Sunday, so the city wasn’t that busy in the morning. It was spring when the Netherlanders cherish its national symbol: Tulips, but still cold a bit in the morning. I took out my jacket from deep inside of my backpack (since I thought I didn’t need…) and put it on. I like walking rather than taking public transportations such as trams, trains and buses unless the place to go is too far; I walked to Leidseplein, one tram stop away from Overtoom, the nearest one from my hostel. Last night, on my way to the supermarket Jumbo, I was almost run over by bicycles; I didn’t know that I was on the bicycle-only road where pedestrians are not allowed to walk. In Amsterdam, roads are comprised of the three spaces; for cars/trams, for bicycles and for walkers. I learned well so I watched carefully where I was standing this morning.
People have sandwiches or bread like Croissant with some coffee in Europe and there were many such bakeries in streets. I’m the last person to wait in a long queue often for foods or amusements (that’s way, I’m not that interested in Disney Land!) unless it’s necessary, so I dropped in a bakery without such a long queue. The shop called Simit Sarayi near from Leidseplein tram stop served home-made sandwiches with fresh vegetables and fried meats. Sorry, I forgot to take a picture before eating but the sandwich I chose was buns with fresh lettuce and tomatoes with a chicken filet. Again, the portion was too huge…but it tasted quite good!
