Started the day with laundry (who says my life isn't exciting). No rain yet. |
Watching clothes tumble-dry is normally dull. But in Amsterdam? |
Amsterdam has articulated trams. Did you know that? Did you care? |
I'd always heard of the Dutch Concert Gebouw (thought it was one word) Orchestra, but hadn't realized it had its own hall. Clouds portending rain. |
Pool in front of the Rijksmuseum |
Riijksmuseum, entrance is around the corner to the left |
Tight entrance security |
I didn't know how to turn off the flash on my new camera. Luckily found someone to show me. |
I do not do photos of museums or churches well. This is a baby's crib. |
There are doll houses, and there are doll houses. I'd kill for this one |
This shot didn't come out as well, but I kept it |
I hate it when something I really want a good shot of turns out out of focus. You can judge the size by the guy standing to the left |
Drat...not as sharp as I'd wanted, but you recognize it, I'll wager |

Clever sculpture adjacent to museum |
Some lovely, lovely sights in Amsterdam |
Ran into Prestige friends Brian and Marilyn outside the Van Gogh museum. Oh, and it's raining |
Waiting to get into the Van Gogh museum. No photos allowed inside |
Patio art...not sure what it has to do with Van Gogh, but.... |
I did get this shot of the restaurant just so I could show I was inside the museum |
And, on leaving, snuck one of the lobby |
Ticket seller on each tram car...a surlier, less helpful bunch you will never find |
Street market |
One of few building shots I was able to get |
A lot of canals in Amsterdam |
Rainy street scene |
Waiting at the Dom stop for the tram to the hotel |
