I haven't been in six years, but I do remember that I quite enjoyed the canal trip - on a boat, of course.

If only because one of my mates nearly fell in. :)

Shoarma and bitterballen however is good as midnight snack.

I live in Amsterdam

Good things to see (especially for tourists):

+ Red Light District
+ Dam Square
+ Anne Frank House
+ Rijksmuseum
+ Van Gogh Museum

Probably some other things that tourists really like but I take for granted so I didn't think to list it.

You've never been to Amsterdam, and you know it.  Amsterdam is a made up dream world.

However, I have been there... in a dream.  Amsterdam is quite dull though.  Typical Dutch.

Also, Madame Tussauds is a must-see.

I don't like shoarma myself, but taste can't be twisted.

Edit:
Also, try buying some stroopwafels. Everybody likes them.

OMG! How did I forget about those! :drool:
There's the honey version as well, which I can't think of the name.
Go to a proper dutch chip shop and you will find all the classics there :P

Last time I was in Amsterdam, I went to see a farm where they make cheese, it was pretty cool. The cheese was awesome :).
