for those of you who didn't know. we got a bonus country into our trip abroad last month. we got about 5 whole hours in amsterdam during the bright and early time of 5:30 AM to 10:30 AM. once we figured out how to buy a train ticket and got on the right train going in the right direction, it turned out to be a really good time to see the city because it was "rush hour" and we could see how folks commute--via bike! it was so quiet and peaceful. dads and kids and stylish young women in cowboy boots rode through the city on bikes with little baskets on the front. plus i got a cappuccino and it was really good.
all in all we only spent about an hour walking around. but i'm glad to have seen it. here are just a few of our pictures.

Dear Waldie,
Great use of time. Just the experience of the city and the daily life was worth the effort downtown.
Ahhhh....the memories you'll have.
(plus the hundreds of photos of the trip - have you started printing yet?).
Sincerely,
Dogwood
