  • The Stedelijk Museum has a new temporary home in the old Post Office building east of Centraal Station at Oosterdokskade. Check the website for further info regarding exhibits and opening times etc.

  • This is a lovely area of Amsterdam that I hadn't really explored before - so when VT friend Pieter jan V and Swanet took me on a little sight-seeing tour of the area it was interesting to see where the locals live!

    Pj's father had been born in this house here in the Jordaan - it is now a coffee shop. So of course this called for a photo opportunity!

  • Very pretty residential area of Amsterdam - really worth visiting - a little quieter and less frantic than other parts of the city - not such a great risk of being mown down by a tram here either! :))

  • This building was wearing a nice blue tie for a special occasion! (Some kind of college open day - but this is just what I understood with my zero knowledge of Dutch!)

  • Just a little Amsterdam housboat with trees reflected in canal (the Singelgracht) with a little bit of "artistic" graffiti thrown in to complete the scene.

  • Our houseboat was situated on the Singel Canal and we quickly discovered that this was the territory of a resident Heron who would frequently circle the area, sometimes actually landing on our roof but mostly preferring to watch the world and the other ducks go by from his little blue and white boat. To my surprise Herons are remarkably common in Nl, even in the centre of Amsterdam.
