Amsterdam, Netherlands

Absolutely scariest restaurant ever. They had the mannequin as seen set so you had to walk right by her to get inside. Up close she looked like a corpse, almost zombie like so it was a zombiequin. Not at all surprising that not a single patron was inside. Their grade in marketing = F. Many restaurants near by full of customers.

The whole Dutch bike thing is real, not just in the movies. These people are bike crazy and you have to watch out as they seem to have the right of way everywhere and they don't slow down for you. I only got hit once having had many near misses. Pictured is the bike parking at the train station where I assume commuters park them. Looks like over 1000 bikes to me. It is my understanding people sometimes have a couple of bikes and leave them various places in this country to use once they arrive by rail. Seems to be a good system.
