Amsterdam post number 1

It could have been the tour guide that made the botanical garden in Amsterdam so interesting, but I found that it was the most interesting thus far location that we visited thus far while staying in Amsterdam. While all the plants were interesting and the green houses with very old plants and tropical plants was enjoyable I found the medicinal garden quite fascinating. Historically things that were used as medicine was a poison or if not taken correctly would be fatal. Which is similar to botox, it kills the nerve endings. It is curious on how in the future medicine in the present could be seen as barbaric. Also absinthe, bad to be addicted to; but can you feel the love? For everything, in small doses.
