The
streets were literally clogged with bicycles and many people had these
adorable little seats on their handlebars for their kids. Some even had
windshields for the little seats.
The
whole city center was ringed with a number of canals, many of which were
really pretty.
This
was hard to get a good picture of, but can you see how that building on
the left side in the middle is leaning out well in front of the one next
too it (look at the top of the building compared to the bottom)? The whole
city is built on reclaimed land so there were buildings standing at crazy
angles all over the place.
So
they apparently look down on picture-taking in the red light district
(at least of the interesting stuff!) but really, seeing these poles upon
exiting it seems a little inappropriate. And don't give me that look,
you would think the same thing after seeing all those sex shops!
