april 29th was queen's night, and the 30th was queen's day... basically tuesday night was a nonstop party everywhere, tons of people migrate to amsterdam, as it's the place to be. the city becomes impossible to move around in.
yesterday was another nonstop party... free concerts on every corner, drunken debauchery, orange everywhere, a drag queen of the day competition, and just random craziness. it's also really popular to designate spaces along the canals to set up shop & sell what you want, this year it was supposedly "illegal" to reserve spaces, but you could see the taped outlines everywhere at least a week in advance. i ran across more broken junk than any jems -- old computers and broken toys for 10 euros. ehh... also everything in the city is closed, so it's just street vendors -- food, beer, and junk.
ran into a lot of friends on the streets... met up with che and alex and all of oma. partied the whole day, then headed to the grolsch bar in spui... where we spent the rest of the night, squeezed like sardines.
