Jaunted in Amsterdam: Official Scooter Business

HotelChatter editor/Jaunted editor-at-large Juliana Shallcross is currently wrapping up her whirlwind tour of Amsterdam, courtesy of the Netherlands Board of Tourism. We'll be giving you a day to get all the pot jokes out of your system, so that you might appropriately comment on her reports. We'll have those for you starting tomorrow, but until then, here's a preview.

Above is a picture snapped at Schiphol Airport. Though they don't appear in the picture, airport security guards at Schiphol apparently ride around on Segway Personal Transporters. Juliana spotted some renegade staffers on their scooters, but they rode so fast and furiously in pursuit of official scooter business that they couldn't be caught on camera. Not as elusive, however, was the glorious assortment of beauty products upon a KLM flight--you can catch that picture after the jump.

Juliana also reports on this nugget of irony from the gates of AMS: "Right when you get off the plane, the airport says its a no-smoking airport but then there' s a bar in the terminal where people are puffing away." Stay tuned for more. In the meantime, you can visit Trippist for more on the Amsterdam scene.
