Once in Amsterdam, there is *plenty* to do for a few hours. I did this recently on a long (11 hour) connection in AMS and really enjoyed it.

All the best,

The shower and then the trip into the city is a MUST!!!!

It's safe, fun, interesting, and English is spoken nearly everywhere.

Oh, yes, the food is good, too.

My only challenge in Amsterdam is that most coin phones won't call my ATT access number. I did get the green ones to work for free, though.

I have a stripkartten (sp?) that is still good for the trams if the OP wants it.
