Amsterdam

We are really enjoying this city. 


Our suite is is the second and third floor of the building in the middle of this photo. 


Today we went to the Van Gogh Museum, Stedelijk Museum (modern), and De Nieuwe Kerk (which isn't really very church like at all). Here are some photo highlights. 





We capped off the day with a canal tour. 



It turns out there are only 2,500 houseboats in Amsterdam, and on this one a couple was enjoying their deck. We saw a number of open boats with parties on them - often with the guests all dressed alike. I didn't get a photo of the pirate party, but it was there.
