Cheezy Windmills
Amsterdam Central station -> Koog Zaandjik station
It is a small village
The air is flavoured with cheeze
No kidding
It seems like the windmills are the one
responsible for spreading the smell...
Delicious~
This must attract a lot of happy mouse
Does the people get fat by breathing cheeze?
Do they suffocate to the air outside their village?
Wooden shoes factory can also be found here
It reminds me of Philippines' bakya
It is interesting to see these wooden shoe skill
survive throughout the years...
There are several windmills in this village alone
For these days,
they are big achitecture with small purposes
But back then,
they are something needed to earn for a living
Nevertheless,
the idea behind it is BRILLIANT

green - yellow - red LIGHT DISTRICT
Green light district: On the GO
Friday nights from Germany,
Quer-Durchs-Land ticket to Hannover
Berlin linen from Hannover to Amsterdam: 2300-0430
Took the metro to the central station
with 24-hr ticket
Tickets for metro and tram can be avail at the metro platz itself
Patient wait until 0600
From central station to hotel Slotania,
we took bus 21
Drop our luggage and off to explore the city of Amsterdam!
Yellow light district: Sightseeing
Fist stop, Anne Frank's "house"
It is more like a hide-out/prison than a house/home
They are prison of their own
for being JEWS
Exceptional people are mold on extraordinary circumstances
Child's innocent view of what is happening around
makes it more striking and painful
for the readers...
Invisible violence and colorless blood
Then,
to tulips flower market, Van Gogh museum, diamond museum...
RED light district: the Original
Around the "Dam" area,
there you find the original red light district
unlike in Hamburg,
ladies are welcome to visit and
have some WINDOW shopping
Although I did not see any male prostitute
But definitely,
there are quite a variety in terms of
sizes, colors and shapes
It reflects the "need" and "taste" of the Market

SBI's Ozeaneum Stralsund
Wonders of living creatures
keep surprising us...
How small creatures can swallow
something bigger than its size;
how they adapt and make flexible changes
in accordance to the natural environment/surroundings.
Good understanding of how they behave
inspire new and interesting stuffs...
Looking through the acquarium
we see the school of fish...
Within the acquarium,
we (SBI peeps) are the "school of fish".
