Breakfast 7.30, we left at 8am. I bagsed the front seat the night b4 (with Reubs having no objection) so I made sure I was early to secure it with Sue.
It was a great driving day - sunny and happy. It was also very cool to be up the front and to hear Reubs carry on @ the traffic and tell jokes, i.e. What's green and looks like a bucket? A green bucket. Why did the truck crash? Coz the driver was a tomato.
We had a services stop at the German/Netherlands border and changed money, then had a proper stop a bit further up the road at Shell's 'sexy' buffet. I didn't think it was that great. . .
Shell's Plucka duck had gone missing earlier this day, and she had immediately suspected Stix (correctly) and so she was constantly asking him where he was - he just kept saying that Plucka was in safe hands.
We kept driving - just before Edam, Reubs put the Beatles on, which was SO GODDAMN COOL! I miss them so much - there was Revolver and a bit of an early one. I told him it was a good choice. Also, when a new duvet/doona fight broke out, I said it was a QUILT and Reuben looked up and smiled. YAY.
We got to Edam and all got bikes. Stix had his backpack set up so that Plucka's head was poking out of the top. She saw it and said 'you bastard!'. She then chased him for 30 seconds, but gave up and threw a stick at him. We had a half hr ride, which was very cool - taking in a windmill and a dyke. Shell got Plucka back.
We pushed on again, going to see cheese and clogs. We got a very speedy explanation on how cheese is made, before being able to taste some. It was yummy - I got a piece of Gouda to take home - Shell said I could take it through customs. We then had another speedy clog-making demonstration where a guy hacked a clog out of a very green piece of wood in about 2 minutes. I wanted to buy some cow clogs, but they weren't really practical, and wouldn't have packed real well. Instead, I got some cool black fashionable clogs to wear out - 50 guilders.
We got back to the coach - Reubs was getting a bit edgy and jumping up and down up the front. Someone had taken Plucka again, and Brett wrote a ransom note saying that if Shell wanted him back, she had to buy a round for all of us, and excuse Stix from the public humiliation she'd set up for him at the sex show that night. Needless to say, she didn't buy it.
We left there at 5pm and pushed on for Amsterdam, arriving at the hostel @ 6.15ish. We had a cool dinner of chicken, ribs, chips and salad, with yummy custard stuff for dessert. We got ready then, and headed off for the sex show @ 7.40. Reubs dropped us off and we wandered in.
The show was pretty tacky, but it was worth it to actually see that full-on sex happens on stage like that. It was also worth seeing Stick get his comeuppance. A dominatrix came out and asked for him by name, then put a dog collar and a blindfold on him, and led him around the stage. It got worse, though, when she got her gear off, and shoved her arse in his face, and then strapped a dildo on his head and had him use it on her. When he came off stage, quite well humiliated, Shell stood up in the balcony and laughed and clapped. It was so funny. She was completely merciless about it too - later on the coach, she said 'Don't fuck with Plucka.'
After the show, we were let loose in the red light district, and I followed Sarah and some other girls into a shop - the videos there were VERY SCARY. We then went to the Grasshopper (yuck) and ended up @Teasers - where Shell was. I met up with Matt and Alicia, and we went (as a threesome, hehe) in search of Maccas, but came back arm in arm to the pizza place. It was pretty much time to go after that, so when we got back on the coach, it was clear that some harmful drugs had been smoked.
We got back in time to see the musos leaving after a show at the Concertgebouw, and I lasted about 10 minutes in the bar (after hearing Prisoner of Society - cool) before I went up, showered, wrote and crashed.
