A Day In Amsterdam

We woke up refreshed and ready for a new day of exploring. This is a beautiful city and you could spend days just walking around looking at the amazing buildings.

We first went on a quest to find coffee! Our first stop didn’t live up to Pete’s expectation so we continued on till we found a small cafe that had great coffee and amazing food. Happy and full we set off to explore. We just kept walking and found a flower market that had sooooo many bulbs and plants so I was in heaven. We tried cheese in a shop dedicated to cheese and I was in seventh heaven. Jumped on a barge and did a canal tour during which we spied a market which we then tried to find on foot. Lucky Pete is good with direction, I would have had us walking in circles or in the wrong direction. Think we are on a but of a food tour too with a couple of stops to fill our faces on Dutch pancakes, croquettes and meatballs. Oh beer too of course.

Made it back to the hotel after a walk through Vondelpark to revive before we head out to find the red light district and maybe a coffee shop!Read more
