James was due for his TAD to Germany, so naturally, we planned a trip to go with it... Actually, his Doc planned the trip, we just booked the hotels. Same thing.
Our first meal:
 |
chicken Pancakes |
We were unsure about meat on pancakes, but the pancake was not like what you think of in the states - definitely not as sweet. Delicious!
Amsterdam is very big on street performers:
 |
Recorder Player. Classic. |
 |
Beautiful buildings |
 |
Local Museum |
 |
Beautiful view on the water |
My mom would never come out of here:
 |
Year round Christmas shop |
 |
"Smart" |
They sold fries everywhere. I loved it. I love fries!
 |
Fries with cheese. Yes please! |
 |
Yummy fries. Pretty city. |
It just wouldn't be right if I didn't take a pic with these too cool Dutch shoes.
 |
I just thought it was cool... |
More street entertainment.
 |
Flame throwing unicyclist. |
 |
Oh jeez... |
Right outside of the Red light district there is a this church. In front of this church there is a memorial to the sex worker.... yeah...
Kind of weird that I took this picture but I thought it was cool. It's a urinal:
 |
Potty anyone? |
 |
Swans were all over the water here. |
 |
Pot museum. |
 |
Beautiful Train Station. |
Outside of the train station there is a parking garage specifically for bikes! There had to be tens of thousands of bikes!
 |
Bicycle Parking garage. |
We visited the Frank's house. It was really neat and really sad to visit.
 |
Frank House. |
 |
More beauty that is Amsterdam. |
Back in the day people who lived on the water had to pay by the size of the front of their home. I guess this person didn't want to pay a lot to live on the water. Cute!
 |
Thinnest house. |
"Coffee Shop"
 |
Where you can buy more than just coffee... |
We visited a popular museum:
 |
Admiring what could be the greatest doll house ever! |
 |
Let it snow let it snow let it snow. |
 |
Art on a guitar. Awesome. |
In Amsterdam you can always find dope deals. Ha... Ha... Ha...
And that wraps up our quick side trip to Amsterdam.
Wish you were here!
