Well , what can be said about Amsterdam. I loved it.
Nothing quite like submerging yourself into the crazy culture, and wandering the streets till the wee hours of the morning. The whole place is like a 24 7 live human carnival/graphic comic book. Fantastic. The atmosphere in the cafes we attended were amazing. Our nights consisted of cafes and the red-light district, just exploring these crazy winding lit up streets for hours.
One day we went to Anne Frank's which was very powerful and depressing at the same time, quite a strong part of history.
It was very funny to see how agitated Andria got with the traffic. I mean everyone just goes everywhere, trams right at your feet, scooters, motorbikes, bicycles, cars and pedestrians are absolutely the lowest on the food chain. There didn't seem to be any order to the chaos, still it was unbelievable. Andria loved all the shopping , Amsterdam has some of the coolest clothes we have ever seen and there is no shortage at all. The whole city is pretty strict on cameras, so not a whole lot of pics, we didn't really want our camera thrown into the canal. Here is some shots from the canal ride and after the coffee shops.
Next off to Brussels, chocolate and fries.
