I thought Amsterdam was boring
I'd rate it worse than most European cities I've been to.

To be fair, I dont take OMG LOL DRUGZ or fuck whores.

It has some historically important galleries.

Goatworrier doesn't like something.
Excuse me whilst I catch my breath, the shock's winded me a bit.

I did say
that I would rate Amsterdam lower than other Euro destinations. Thus indicating that I liked other things instead.

Berlin for example is lovely, Barcelona is my favourite, I love being there. Paris is IN MY OPINION hugely overrated though. They can fuck off and fucking die.
( Goatworrier had your mum and she was shit, Thu 14 May 2009, 9:17, archived)

Oh I'm only ribbing you.
I've not been to Barcelona, but I'm sure it's far too hot for me. I'm not good in the heat.

Go in November
or March.

I went in April and it was lovely warm and sunny without being sweltering. I was in shorts and tees but the spaniards were in overcoats and scarves. It was about 20 degrees.
( Goatworrier had your mum and she was shit, Thu 14 May 2009, 9:20, archived)

That doesn't sound too bad. I'd like to, I'd like to see the architecture.

( Captain Wow currently being a cunt in Infamous, Thu 14 May 2009, 9:21, archived)

The gaudi stuff really amazed me when I first saw it.
I hadnt even heard of him when I first saw the Sagrada and I was in awe of it.

I've been there often enough now that I dont do any touristy stuff, just go there for the vibe and to have fun.
( Goatworrier had your mum and she was shit, Thu 14 May 2009, 9:23, archived)

Yeah, that'd be my main reason for going.
Gaudi, I mean.
( Captain Wow currently being a cunt in Infamous, Thu 14 May 2009, 9:25, archived)

Get a taxi to Parc Guell
Walk round there, then walk all the way back to the sea from there.
( Goatworrier had your mum and she was shit, Thu 14 May 2009, 9:26, archived)

WALK?

( Captain Wow currently being a cunt in Infamous, Thu 14 May 2009, 9:31, archived)

Yes, walk, you hideous fat mess.
Walk from the Parc to La Predrera (Or whatever it's called) then to the Sagrada and then down the ramblas to the sea. Have a rest, then wander round the Gothic quarter.
( Goatworrier had your mum and she was shit, Thu 14 May 2009, 9:36, archived)

I'll have to have lots of rests.

( Captain Wow currently being a cunt in Infamous, Thu 14 May 2009, 9:39, archived)

Just blow off at a passing pug
I find that to be very refreshing.
( Goatworrier had your mum and she was shit, Thu 14 May 2009, 9:51, archived)

Oh, you cruel man.

( Captain Wow currently being a cunt in Infamous, Thu 14 May 2009, 9:54, archived)

Berlin is fucking awesome. As is Valencia.

( RR I love you ... in a way, Thu 14 May 2009, 9:20, archived)

I liked Valencia
Lisbon is also a nice place. I wasn't impressed with madrid. Too many huge roads and all the buldings looked like banks.

Where else is shit/disappointing in the Gooatworrier Lonely Panet (of the lanky doelful apes)?
/genuinely interested.
( RR I love you ... in a way, Thu 14 May 2009, 9:23, archived)

Hmmm
Can't think of any other city trip I've done where I was disappointed.

Amsterdam is nice enough, just didnt "pump my nads" paris has some amazing places but the city is too big and the people are too Parisian. Edinburgh was a bit "meh" the people arent scottish enough. The weather is though which sort of made up for it.

Berlin and Palma (Majorca) were the two that really exceeded my expectations. Palma is like a Bonsai Barcelona by a lovely big harbour with a lot of winter sunshine. Great for a sunshine break in November...
( Goatworrier had your mum and she was shit, Thu 14 May 2009, 9:33, archived)

I haven't been to Majorca since I was a kid, being herded into some hideous kid's club. I do remember palma being nice though.
I didn't know about it being good for winter sun. Might be good for penniless proles like me.
( RR I love you ... in a way, Thu 14 May 2009, 9:56, archived)

I will be going to Barcelona this month
I can't wait to try the sauerkraut and bagels.
( Undulating Tentacles of Love getting fun down to acceptable levels, Thu 14 May 2009, 9:21, archived)

Go to El Xampanyet

( Goatworrier had your mum and she was shit, Thu 14 May 2009, 9:22, archived)

Sounds nice
cheers.

I'm afraid i have to concur.
the thing is, you can take OMG LOL DRUGZORS and fuck whores anywhere.

I'd be curious to see how a legal brothel works
and if I were to take drugs I'd want to make sure the law was on my side.
( WormuIus, Thu 14 May 2009, 9:13, archived)

it's not though.
It's not as if dope is legal in Holland.
( the mighty badger Aphrodite, on a bar stool, by your side, Thu 14 May 2009, 9:14, archived)

But it may as well be for the majority of people.

( Captain Wow currently being a cunt in Infamous, Thu 14 May 2009, 9:15, archived)

I am so square
I dont even care. I didnt even walk through the red light area.

I didnt even look at womens tits in the street when I was in Amsterdam, I was making a statement.
( Goatworrier had your mum and she was shit, Thu 14 May 2009, 9:16, archived)

Oh my, it's like I don't even know you anymore.
You've changed, man.
( RR I love you ... in a way, Thu 14 May 2009, 9:21, archived)

The musuems are good.
If you're into that kind of thing of course...
