Morshin Jan 2008

The first time i visited my cousins and i went out a few times.
Its completely different with Holland...The so called clubs cloes at very early ..23hrs!
The first one we went to had some good modern musicbut..there was a stage and the room was filled with chairs like a cinema, never saw something like that. no smoking no drinking inside! Most younger people came here.
At the second (i forgot the names..i will ask next time..) in the middle there was a huge dancefloor, crowded with people of all age, walzing, doing foxtrotts and other dances.
no smoking either, but there was a bar in a room next to it.

The third place was an old military building if i remember well, here u could have drinks as well and some good music.

The last night before i went home we went to the theater, an very nice old building. On the programm some famous singer, we stayed for half an hour because i wanted to spend the last night with my family.
