amsterdam

Sorry it has taken me so long to post about Amsterdam, our internet wasn't working very well, but we finally got it fixed.

Amsterdam was a breath of fresh air after being in cities for 5 days. It was so nice to see trees everywhere and just have a more relaxed paced day. Amsterdam is a beautiful city and is filled with bikers, families and very friendly Dutch people. We fell in love with Amsterdam all over again.
Our apartment was along the Amstel Canal and was so beautiful.

Here is the view from our front door.


Our apartment was fantastic and definitely our favorite place we stayed in.
Living room 
kitchen
bedroom number 1
Bedroom number 2, which was huge and had a couch
and piano in it!


The view from our apartment window.
 

The Dutch love their cheese. 
There were Cheese shops everywhere and there were fantastic.

So many people bike in Amsterdam, it was wonderful. I fell in love with the families biking together. Here is a bike where they would have one child in front and one in back, such a great idea!
