We flew into Amsterdam and stayed on a houseboat on the Amstel River. A little cozy, but worth the experience. Such a cool city, especially on a bicycle in the summer. Can't be beat. As always when we visit, we meet up with Karen's cousin Andrea. She is always a gracious host.

1 Amsterdam01s Getting stung by a bee. What a cry-baby.
2 Amsterdam02s View from our houseboat. I would do this again.
3 Amsterdam03s Rijksmuseum. The place to see Dutch Masters.
4 Amsterdam04s Having beers at Cafe Van Wou, which wasn't a cafe, but a pub. We nicknamed our waitress "Surly" because she was.
5 Amsterdam05s Andrea took us to a small boutique restaurant called Wink. I think this was fish, among other things.
6 Amsterdam06s Karen and Andrea.
7 Amsterdam07s Jessica enjoying fine cuisine.
8 Amsterdam08s Abandoned bicycles with an incredible patina.
9 Amsterdam09s Banksy exhibit at the Moco Museum. It was interesting since Banksy doesn't really do gallery art. There was some Andy Warhol stuff also.
10 Amsterdam10s One of many canals.
11 Amsterdam11s Royal Palace. I think it was once city hall.
12 Amsterdam12s Grand Hotel Armâth. One of the most amazing Art Nouveau buildings I've ever seen. I want to stay there next time I visit Amsterdam.
