The Amsterdam Airport

Each toilet stall is like an individual room and there aren't any black people anywhere.  Everything is a little bit cuter than it is the the United States for no reason.

I noticed flying in that all the land around the airport is being put to some use.  In the U.S. airports tend to be surrounded by a weird no-man's-land of weeds and overgrowth, but here the farmland runs right up to the runway.  Nothing is uncultivated or underutilized. 

Also, the runway ran over a tree-lined canal that I guess was there first.  They made a little bridge over it for the airplanes.  It was lovely.

I also keep having this urge to grab everyone and go "DUDE WE'RE IN FUCKING EUROPE!  ISN'T THAT AWESOME?"
