Amsterdam day 2. Sticky Icky icky
Went to the Van Gogh museum yesterday and it was awesome. Original paintings, by Van Gogh and a little escription about each piece. It was more expensive then almost any other museum we've been to, but it was well worth it. You can see his transition from when he started out, till his tragic death. Truly amazing.
In the museum they also had works by this other artist. I forget his name, but it was more of a controversial type of art, through dance, video, and other types of media. the thing that tripped me up the most, is that upon entering, you see this video of a japanese woman boucing up and down on this huge rubber ball. We stared at it for a while to determine whether it was on a loop or not. We couldn't come up with a final conclusion.
so, we go to the rest of the exhibit on another floor, and there were just all these freaky ass videos of naked people rolling around, or doing wierd things. but the craziest thing, is that when you turned the corner all you see, in the center of the room, is the japanese chick bouncing up and down on a rubber ball with a camera in her face!!! For like hours, she's just sitting there, boucing up and down on the rubber ball! expressionless and apparently not exhausted! It was messed! Imagine seeing that high?? It was just so trippy.
Later on we just got some food, and went to a coffeeshop to chill (if you know what I mean). Let's just say, Umu got MESSED UP!!! It was all good, but then he passed out right there in the coffeeshop. When he finally came to, it was only cause he wanted to puke. so, he rushed up and wobbles around trying to get to the bathroom, making a huge scene, and knocking down a couple of stools. people were all scrambling to get out of his way, cause they were afraid he was going to Puke on him. It was crazy! he wound up making it to the bathroom, but cloghged up one urinal, and the sink. In the end, I managed to get him, and the rest of my boys home safe and sound. Thank God!
We're going to head out to the Anne Frank museum today, and chill in RLD a little bit I think. Unlike last night, we'll still in the hostel and do our business. That way we're close to our home base. then we can see whether we want to head back out.
