Amsterdam was our pit stop to take a break from our travelling.
Before we started on this trip, I never understood why people need to take a holiday while on a holiday. Now I do. Continuously travelling tires one out. The motion of sightseeing, eat, sleep, pack and long hours on train or buses does tire one out. Sometimes, it kills off the beauty of a place cos attractions look the same after a while.
We started asking fellow travellers if they are tired of travelling too...Some has been travelling for years, some for months and some on a 6 months break from work, life or on a long honeymoon. Thankfully, most said yes. At some point, it got me to pondering if it's cos we are not suitable to travel for long! But now, after 4 months of travelling, we don't wanna go back! hehe..I guess once we break through the runner's wall, there's no turning back!
We are very lucky to have friends residing in Europe and friends visiting Europe. They helped us to cure a large part of homesickenss and food supplies from S'pore. Being foodies, we missed food back home the most! We can never walked past an Asian restaurant without getting excited. Haha...so when we got to Amsterdam, we ate our filled!
Here's photos of our pigging out time when we were in Amsterdam 2 months back..hehe and our great time in Amsterdam!

I forgot to ask you the other day when we met up in Barcelona: If you could have a chance to re-live your trip, what would you have done differently?
