-2001 - Amsterdam and Leiden with Roger and Marie-Louise (Roger's photos)
show thumbnails

My place might have been a little bit messy at the time...

Best thing about Leiden: tons of places you can sit outside by the canal to eat/drink/read/sleep..



Canals and windmills. Everywhere.

Cold beer in the sun in Amsterdam. Amsterdam's great for sitting somewhere with a beer watching all the strange people pass by on the street.

More Amsterdam. Very much Amsterdam. Notice the very artistic fallos fountain to the right with the two rotating... round things.

Brian Setzer 68' comeback special!

Roger and Marie-Louise in Jazzcafe the Duke - my favourite hangout in Leiden.



"Enjoy your Luckies at Jazzcafe the Duke!"

The stairs up to my little student apartment..

More Jazzcafe the Duke. I'm pretty sure I spent more waking hours in here than in my apartment during the first Leiden-year (see photos of apartment above as to why..).

Roger and Marie-Louise.

Ocean of bikes outside the Leiden station. The station-house actually looks like that..not under construction or anything.. Can be quicker to buy a bike for 5 guilder from one of the homeless patrolling this bike-ocean for unlocked bikes than trying to find your own...especially if you just got back from Amsterdam and the memory of where you put your bike is a little blurry..

I regret I never lived in one of these house-boats in Holland. Would have been a nice hippie thing to do.

Annies in Leiden. Not sure what time this photo was taken as it's always packed normally..
