    The 25 second one:

    How many times did I see George Bush? I didn’t count, but way too many.

    Great animations. It just goes to show that you can take travel and travel writing “outside of the box.” Not a bad idea if you want to get more traffic to your website.

    It’s such a shame the way amsterdam is depicted in this video. No wonder so many tourists think there is nothing more to this country then prostitutes and pot. The video is not about amsterdam at all but about the travels of someone with a very limited and specific agenda.
