O.K., even though I did enough walking last night, Robbie, wanted to see the Redlight district. And I wanted to see downtown in the daytime to take some photos before tonight’s show. So after a breakfast of ham pancakes, Robbie and I board the Number 5 tram to the downtown and Redlight area. For Robbie, the Redlight District is Nirvana. Skip the girls, Robbie wanted to hit up the coffee shops. As I hear it, they sell more than just coffee. As we are walking, we see on of the “girls” in a window. She has to be over 60 years old, and she’s fully clad in leather.
After a couple of hours walking he and I are both getting tired and his prosthetic causing some aches and pain. So we stop at a Maoz, a vegetarian falafel fast food joint.
I order one and the guy serves up a pita with 8 falafels in it. You add the toppings yourself, from the 20 to 30 that are available. It was quite tasty and probably good for you. We get back on the Number 5 tram and spend the next hour trying to find are way back to the hotel. I stop by the laundry mat to pick up the clothes we dropped off earlier in the day. It’s about 7 Euros to have someone wash, dry and fold 5 kilograms of clothes.
Although the rest of the guys have gone to grab a bite, I’m still trying to fight the jet lag. It’s 8:00 and I’m crashing early tonight.
