    We went to the Rembrandt house this morning. It’s really nice to watch Jordan get so excited about artists she’s loved and studied. The house is the original, but everything in it was reproduced from a complete inventory they had found. It was still neat to see how people would have lived. This was a VERY expensive mansion back in the day - eventually Rembrandt went bankrupt and lost the house.

    The only other thing we did today, other than just walk, admire and take in our surroundings was a trip to A’dam Lookout. It’s a 22 story building across the river from the train station. We took a ferry across the river (it was free, but the bathrooms aren’t?!?!) and then went to the top for a fantastic view of the city and another phenomenal sunset.

    Then just to get our blood pumping, we did the swing from the top! We couldn’t film it because phones weren’t allowed and we went together, but filmed the people that went before us. It was quite a rush.
