Hi everybody,
As mentioned in the Easter entry, another "Flat Stanley", this one named Flat Matt, has come into our lives. Matt is lucky in that we are doing a lot of traveling right now, so he's getting to see a lot.
After going with us to England for Easter he went with Chris and another friend, David, to the Basel watch show in Switzerland. On the way home they stopped in the tiny country of Liechtenstein and snapped a picture of Flat Matt being welcomed there.
Once back in Amsterdam, Chris, David and I rode Flat Matt to the Muiden castle. It's about a 2 hour bike ride from Amsterdam to Muiden, through the East side of Amsterdam - which we hadn't really visited before. There's also a pretty part of the ride along a large canal used for shipping barges. The bike path in that area is shaded by trees and runs right along the canal.
In Amsterdam Flat Matt also noticed the old Dutch canal houses, went to the market with us to buy cheese, flowers and veggies, and got to see our favorite Amsterdam windmill. All in all, not a bad visit!
Enjoy the pics!
