Day 73/74-The Netherlands, Amsterdam

Today was mostly spent in my hotel (minus a couple of hours spent walking around the hotel and surrounding area) so I thought I'd share a little list highlighting what I just know I'm going to do instinctively back in the States. Enjoy ;)

At the grocery store:
1. Head straight for the apples, bread, and peanut butter.
2. Look for digestives and lion bars.
3. Reach inside my pants in the checkout line.
4. Refuse a bag because they cost extra.

At home:
1. Wash my underwear in the sink.
2. Ask for an extra towel.
3. Set a meeting time in the morning.
4. Sniff-test a shirt five times before washing it.
5. Use an adapter.
6. Go to bed at 10.

At the restaurant:
1. Point to something on the menu for fear of mispronouncing it.
2. Ask for "take away."
3. Ask for the WC.

Miscellaneous places:
1. Watch for bikes when crossing the street.
2. Automatically crowd close to someone on the bus.
3. Ask, "Do you speak English?"
4. Be wary of birds.
5. Use every single available bathroom.
6. Go to H&M for clothes.
7. Upon smelling smoke, immediately perk up.
8. Assume karate position when anyone permeates a two foot radius.
9. Walk EVERYWHERE.
10. Kick pigeons.
11. Stare.
