Amsterdam Netherlands

Welcome to Amsterdam. 

After a long flight we arrived in Amsterdam. Wearing a mask for 16 hours straight was not fun, but you do what is necessary. Saturday was full of bikers trying to get to the party. It was a madhouse with sidewalks, bike lanes and lanes for auto's jammed full of people going to fast. Seems like everyone is out for a good time or trying to kill us. Most people were in there 30's or 40's. All were fit except for the tourists. 

We started walking in the center of town to look for the Anne Frank Museum.  We fell in love with the small streets and 100's of bridges. We actually watched two boats hit each other under a bridge. They were only going about 10 knots, but boats do not have brakes. 


Our view of the city was exceptional. Everyone was drinking, smoking weed and having a wonderful time. While we did not smoke any weed, we did enjoy way to many drinks. 

After the Anne Frank Museum we boarded a wonderful tour boat. 

The cars are small, but that is all you need. This one is on the bike lane. I figured out if you have a motorcycle but no helmet you drive on the bike lane. 

We learned that the houses start in the millions and the houseboats were double that. 

We made it to the boat and started the trip at 5:45 pm. Fun food friends and plenty of drinks.

You two crammed a lot into 6 hours after an incredibly long trip. Kudos to you!
