I have a 12 hour layover in Amsterdamn on my return flight from London in early October.

I'm only there at night. I land at 10PM and I take off at 10AM. I've reserved a hotel so I can get some sleep.

What is there to do at night in this city?

(I'm hoping I have a chance to check my email and this board before I go.) <-- Currently waiting in Detroit for a flight to London that is much delayed.

Walk. Enter club or bar. Drink. Talk to fun people. Repeat.

1 word: hookers.

I just googled hookers and there is even a forum (hookers.nl) with reports and ratings of all the hookers .

Been there.
The strung-out crackheads in the red light district are a nice touch.
