Day 6: Amsterdam/Köln

The last day in Amsterdam, it went so fast and so furiously, but that's just the nature of this holiday! We had a little lie in, before packing up and heading to the station to drop off our luggage. Luggage dropped off, we headed out for brunch/lunch/11sies at a cool place called Mook Pancakes, where we had their 'Mancake', Bacon, Cheese, Onions and Maple syrup, with peach juice and a beer. A 3 word summary - 'bloody brilliant pancakes'.

Next we headed to the shops again, this time at the other end of town, where Brandy Melville and Abercrombie are situated, as well as MAC, which of course is a must visit. Somehow we managed to get away from here with no purchases, and strolled over to the Vondelpark, with a short stop on the way for a drink. We laid in the sun for a couple of hours , enjoying our last hours in Holland. But it was over too soon, and we headed back to the station, to convert currency and head off to Prague.

Our first train was to Köln, from which we were going to get our overnight sleeper to Prague. This journey was again uneventful, a little slow going, but we were soon there. A mcflurry and a milkshake and then we were on the next train, Köln to Prague, 12 hours, crammed in a little double bunk cabin. Soon we were asleep, ready to wake up, only an hour or two from Prague...
