Dear Diary,
Today I rented a bike and got lost in Amsterdam. Haven't been on two non-motorized wheels in way over a decade. It ruled. Left Walter to browse the used bookstores and took off on a brief tour of the city. Saw houseboats, pomo lofts, pretty buildings, a zillion canals, and way, way fewer people than in the tourist zones. I only wobbled at first, and the bike lanes everywhere meant I never felt stressed about traffic.
It was perfect.
