Sight Seeing !

Amsterdam !
 Still, after living here in The Netherlands for 20 years I still get a kick out of how close things really are! A 40 minute train ride and I'm in the centre of Amsterdam!
Meeting up with Carolien (click here)
First stop is always coffee!
 Then it was to do a bit of shopping !
Lots of Dutch design fabrics !
 and ideas !
Great advice !
 Lots to see today ! 

  

 A Cow Museum !
Plants outside in February! 

 A bicycle built for how many ?
 Let's head to the Westerkerk (click here)
 This is an amazing art piece/candle holder !
 Snails !
 Butterflies 
 and one bird. Must be brilliant when all lit!
 Lavender, rosemary and olive trees !
 Amsterdam canal tours !
 Very creative at finding green space!
 So much green in Amsterdam !
 In February !
 A sidewalk cafe !
 Cool !
 Outside one hotel 
Something for everyone !
Don't forget to look up !
 Button Shop 
Must be lovely in May when the wisteria is in bloom !
 It's open !
 Time to go back outside !
Amsterdam ! Life goes on !
yes, even the bedding gets hung out !
 Dutch design !
 A charming city to stroll through !
 What's this ?
 Oh, so you can take it apart !
 And when you think it's a bit busy, you turn a corner and find yourself by the Amsterdam museum !

 The view from a book store !
 in the book store !
 and a book !
 Signs of Spring !
 Thanks for a great day out !
Souvenirs !
