Actually, this should probably be called, "shoes I saw in Amsterdam."

This big yellow shoe kept stalking me.


Here it is in a canal, with tulips painted on it. Could one get more Dutch?


Its portrait, hanging over a café.


If I were given to puns, I'd call this a pornucopia, but I'm not, so I won't.


They also had little shoes.


And lots of little shoes.


There's also a picture of me pretending to be a hooker, but that's not technically something I saw.

What is it about wooden shoes that gives me the creeps? These photos are terrifying!

Which part of a hooker's life were you portraying? Is that why we can't see?

MISS BA....I'd only wished you made it to Copenhagen! But fate was not with us this time........

It's just too bad. But I'm going to see the Raveonettes tonight, which is sort of like a trip to Denmark.

Miss BA...who are they????

These remind me of those wooden platform sandels that were all the rave when I was about 15. My mum finally chucked them in the bin because I kept treading on all the families toes and crippling them!

The Raveonettes are an excellent Danish post-punk (which could mean anything, really) band. They have a new album called Chain Gang of Love, which I haven't heard, but Whip It On is excellent. They also had surprisingly good opening acts that I'd never heard of. (The Hong Kong and stellastarr--anybody know them?)

Miss BA...chain gang ???? whip it??? jesus..sounds like just what the doctor ordered!
