Homeland of the Tall & Beautiful
... done, but fortunately for me, it was just finished. It was quite gorgeous, and there was a nice town square directly in front of it with some souvenir shops and a monument. We walked around for a bit, around the canals and saw lots of beautiful trees. Everything here is so old, lots of cobblestone, it's really gorgeous! The weather was nice at first, then it rained for awhile (while we were on the bikes ...

A day in Amsterdam
... all decided we wanted to find some quieter streets so we headed for the Portuguese Synagogue. As is typical for us,we arrived just as it was closing which was a bummer.
