It just seems so damn civilized. Want a drink? Go to a bar. Want a toke? Go to a 'coffee shop'. Want to have sex? Go pick a willing woman out of a window. Mind you, I can't figure out women are supposed to do - I guess we don't have the urge. Have family? Get a larger bike!
With all the hullabaloo about sex and drugs in Canada, it makes me wonder if we are just situated too close to the USA to see any other ways to live life. "Where are all your homeless people?" I asked our host. He looked at me askance. "We have a few but there are shelters." We have seen no one sleeping in the parks, in entrance ways, on the streets. We have shelters, but our nooks and crannies are often bedrooms.
Amsterdam has given me lots to ponder. Tomorrow we fly to Prague. The weather station is calling for wind, rain and thunderstorms. I dread the air flight already.
