From London To Amsterdam continued...
ok... i did a little a little more research... and i think this is a good one... we can take the train/ferry from lon-amst... we have a few options... but, i thought the overnight train/ferry combo was a good one... you get a cabin with a bunk bed, shower, bathroom (shampoo and conditioner)... breakfast in the morning etc... one way overnight (which also means we dont have to worry about booking a hostile for a night, and or anything else) is 165 a person, and 236 for 2... they are the same prices for adults and students... so it would be 118 a person if we split the fairs... and a daytime trip would be 45 a person, and 91 for two, so no extra discount there... these tickets need to be booked at least 14 days in advance soooooo please let me know how everyone feels about this idea... by the way it would be 710 for us to book everything together... which is still 118 a person... also they have set the train and ferry up so that where we get off at is very close to where we will be getting back on... all in all there are three stops to make, including Amsterdam...

Wouldn't it still be cheaper to do the $45 trip and the $20 hostel? Rather than spend the $118? I dunno, comfort over price?
it would be cheaper... although i did notice that hostels seem to raise their prices on the weekend (i wouldn't really expect anything different)... so, yes... what it really comes down to is comfort and price... and traveling at night, in lew of the daytime, and ya know, maximizing our daytime fun... i have to say that i think that we're gonna be hard pressed to find a $20 a night hostel... it just seems like we're gonna average 30-40 (for the most part, and i think that it has alot to do with availability) a night from the research i've done so far...
Well, the first one I found was $20.00 a night. I "booked"it up to the point of paying, and for the 4 days that we would be in Amsterdam (including the weekend) it would cost us each $20.50 a night. I'm just worried that if we don't decide and book it soon, we may miss out... So I guess everyone has to put in their opinion!
i think we should all do the train/ferry thingy... we can do the day trip and only spend 45... MUCH cheaper that way... and i'm sure we can entertain eacthother (or sleep off the probable hangover we'll have) during the 8 or 9 hour trip... i'm down for whatever is the cheapest!
