Sights of Amsterdam

Friday was our last full day in Amsterdam and tomorrow we head off on our Boat and Bike trip. This could be our last post for a few days as we are unsure of Internet connection capability of the boat; last time it was really spotty and we had to catch up with our posts in bunches and not day to day.

Today’s post is some of the sights of Amsterdam.

A park across from our B&B with all the standard playground equipment, however the really interesting thing they added is a ping pong table and people do bring their own paddles and balls and have a match.

A few pictures from the largest park in Amsterdam, it’s called Vondell Park and they have let it grow naturally with just a couple buildings and entertainment areas. However, lots of runners, walkers and bikes.

Bicycles, bicycles, bicycles! In front of every home, down every street and on every corner. Bicycles of every shape, size and description and people riding alone or with friends, children, texting, talking, etc. etc.

QUICK UPDATE

We are now on the Bike and Barge and the internet connection is very spotty. This morning it is good so we are letting everyone we will provide complete updates when we get a more secure connection.
