A Dream In Amsterdam
Amsterdam. Rembrandt, tulips, pot, red lights, sexual liberty. The descendants of the Vikings, who once made other peoples conjure: “Oh, Lord, please save us from the rage of the Normans!” Their proverbial sexuality – a Viking chieftain used to entertain a thousand of lovers. Amsterdam is awesome.
Amsterdam is pretty and picturesque – the buildings are motley, gay and decorated with ivy and other creeping plants. It has got canals like Venice but you move around with small boats, not gondolas. The tram in the street looks like it is smiling at you. The most common way of getting around is a bicycle.There are as many people with bicycles as pedestrians.
Amsterdam is a city where you should come with your dreams.
Imagine a guy from the province chatting with a girl from the capital. After the usual greetings, she says that she comes from Amsterdam. He asks her for a photo and she sends some immensely sexy photograph of her in a bathing suit. The guy is tantalized and when she asks him for his photo, his computer suddenly dies.
A desperate romantic, the guy takes the photo, packs a bag, takes the guitar under his armpit and hitchhikes to Amsterdam, singing in a red Porche. Without even staying at a hotel in Amsterdam, he starts strolling the streets with the picture in his hand. He asks every passer-by have they seen this girl. Old respectable, white-haired ladies, who look irritable, interracial couples of lovers, blond little ladies – all of them don’t know her. With the unbelievably beautiful picture in his hands, he is as hopeful as any romantic man of Normanic lineage. Suddenly he gets directions from one of the strangers and he manages to find his lady eventually. Follows a very romantic hug, and she is very glad to see him. This is how one discovers the most beautiful girl in the city. Next thing to do is get in one of the hotels in Amsterdam.
And how do they spend their day in an Amsterdam hotel? They enter the lobby, go past the welcoming concierge, check in, and come into a beautiful room with ceiling to floor windows, with beige nuances of the curtains, the armchairs, the floor and the lamps, a room which looks comfortable and friendly. The bed seems inviting and soft. The view is an admirable scenery of the channel, with the surrounding trees and buildings. They make out a little, then they come downstairs and sit together in the restaurant of the hotel to treat themselves with red wine. The dense liquid slowly fills the glass. They get one of those huge white plates with only a pinch of food in the middle. However, they get satiated only by looking into each others eyes. They get fresh drinks with lemon slices. They say “Cheers!”Staggering they go up the stairs to their room. They enter the amazingly beautiful bathroom with huge mirror and pink flowers beside the sink. They lay in the warm bathtub. Now, finally they can eat mushrooms.
