We then set out from Paris by train to Amsterdam. Time for the long underwear and raincoats… It was cold and damp! We did manage to stumble into the very best Italian restaurant in which I have had the pleasure to eat. And did we eat! These were serious portions and we each cleared our plate!
Two museums the next day: the Van Gogh and the Rijksmuseum. The Van Gogh was phenomenal–of course! And the Rijks was partially under construction. Because of this, most of the “stuff” was placed in the central rooms for viewing. That made for a very brief tour.
Owing to the rain, our canal tour in a glass-topped boat was mostly a view of water streaming down the windows. We did catch a glimpse of Anne Frank’s house… which seemed to be under construction. Good times… then off to Germany.
