AMSTERDAM

The 17th of May 2000 we went by van to Amsterdam. Our ckv-teachers organised the trip (ckv = about art 'n stuff). We left from school about 9 am and we spend the whole day in the city. We parked the van under de Amsterdam Arena and went by subway to Amsterdam CS. First we went to the New Metropolis (science museum), after that we walked to the "de Dam". There we split up in 3 groupes. I went with Brenda, Menno and Mr. Straathof (our ckv-teacher) to some places where we made pics. After a couple of hours we came together again and we went back to the Arena. We sat a while in a cafe, drank some beers, and went to the Arena-Cinema. It's the newest one and there are 17 halls (every 10 minutes a film starts). Brenda, Menno and I saw the movie "Sleepy Hollow", which was very cool. Afterwards we had a meal at McDonalds in Maarssen before we went home.

The pigeons were a little enthusiastic wen we fed them.
