More About Amsterdam

Here are a few key photo's that didn't make it into the last post and thought it is only right that we share them with you.

The first picture : A weird car and an even weirder public bathroom. Like really, what the heck?? It's wiiiiiiide open, in broad daylight. Too much for us... The midget car looks pretty hilarious as well.


The second picture: Yes, you can still live in a trailer if you live in Amsterdam. A little harder to get that "trailer park" atmosphere, but you can get close. Anyways, pretty ridiculous, I couldn't imagine living in a house boat for my whole life.


Picture three: Look closely, cause this bike is decked out. Windshield for the front child(yes that is a kid seat right after the windshield), you can also trap a kid on the back, basket in the front, and a nice paint job. The Amsterdamers love their bikes, sooo many bikes there, all old-school bikes as well, quite funny.


And here are some more pictures of the beautiful city.

Kate,

Hey!! What's your blog website we want to check it out!

Mere,

I don't even think that you would have used those they were so "public" and disgusting. They only bring them out for weekend while more tourists are here...kinda gross hey! Unfortunately we did witness many people using them; more than you would expect.

Guys, I just noticed the ticker in the corner for how long it is till you come home. Love it! Especially that it's counting down the seconds. Before you know it it'll be time to come home again and you'll wish you could have stayed a little longer. Looks like you're having a blast with all your sight seeing.

Kate,

Thanks for your blog website! We'll be checking it continually so you better keep it updated! haha Just kidding.

Janice and Gord,

Yeah it's a great feature; we look at it more often than we would like to share. But you're so right; the time is going to fly by now and we will be wishing we were here for longer. If you think about it Christmas is almost here now and that will go by super fast. Then after that there are only 4 more whole months left in Europe! And we will be traveling more during that time as well which makes time go faster as well. We are definitely looking forward to the day of our flight (May 3) but at the same time are dreading it! It will be hard to say good bye to Switzerland, the traveling and the family I'm nannying! But all good things must come to an end I guess...
