College Hotel



We have been away for the weekend to a hotel in Amsterdam just for fun. Even tough we both are a lot in Amsterdam for work and school, it was great to just relax and go see things you never have time for when we are there. First we went to the museum but when we got there there was a very long line so we first brought our bag to the hotel. When we went back there was still a line ofcourse but atleast we were now without a heavy bag. The museum was great and we saw so many beautiful paintings and we had a great time.

After we left the museum we went to the most expensive street in Amsterdam where all the rich and famous of the Netherlands go shopping. It was great fun to windowshop and we had a good laugh at the pricetags. Then we went back to the hotel to freshen up and have a drink in the bar till the restaurant would open.

Dinner was amazing, we had a fantasic 3 course meal but the food was weird. We had haringfish icecream and lobster "rookworst" and even more weird combinations. The hotel was so beautiful and is run by students of the ROC in Amsterdam so tehere were some small mistakes but nothing serious. After dinner it was already late so we went to ourroom and have a shower and watch some TV. We had ordered breakfast for in the morning and we got two large trays with coffee and bread.

It was a great weekend but next time we will go abroad
