2/4/08-Surviving Amsterdam – 1st Day




Arrived at Amsterdam-Schiphol 5 minute past 7 am, Amsterdam time. Past the immigration without any hassle and then lost inside the airport searching for a place to keep my big bag. I must say, compare to KLIA, this airport is nothing.
Took a train to Amsterdam-Centraal, a place that the function is more or less the same with our KL Sentral, hence the name. Problem was, didn’t know where to go, and the only information in my hand was the street where the Annemarie Hotel located, Jim Wandstraat and this place is about 200 m away from the famous Van Gogh Museum.
So, decided to go to the Van Gogh museum by boarding on Tram no 5. Stop at Museumplein and after 10 minutes or so, found the place. Arrived quite early, so the room still not ready. Had a conversation with the owner and found out that this place is popular among Malaysians. The owner is Moroccan Muslim, and he got infos how to get a halal pizza. That’s great, I solved my tonight's dinner dilemma
