Our love affair with Amsterdam continues... such a great city to visit! We spent our long weekend in Holland with James and Tracey and although the weather wasn't that flash, we made up for it in other ways.... wondering the streets with canals.....Our first day we rode over 60km into the country to find wind mills... we got a lot further this time round and managed to find quite a few... very beautiful country side. Although my legs were killing me the next day!
We visited the house of Anne Frank also... was very sad to read and see all about her life... or shall I say, the lives of them all. Quite hard to understand how different things must have been back then.
The ladies of the night were out and about selling what they know best... very interesting to watch, but of course the majority of the clientel is the English stag do's... No where else in the world is prostitution so well organised and laid out... Would like to take photos to show you all the sale windows... but we weren't allowed....

That was a long way to cycle to find a windmill - in fact you were probably nearly over the border! Loved the dutch daisy chain. Yes the Anne Frank House is somewhat sobering.
glad you saw Anne frank house.did you get to the Heinekin brewery for a free one?
Simon could've worn a small camera when he went into to check "the ladies" out????
