Amsterdam
Thursday, January 17
Several years ago the planets aligned just right and I took a two week vacation to Europe. It was a place I didn't think I'd be able to get to until I was much older and no longer was fiscally responsible for two very expensive little children. But, a once in a lifetime opportunity came my way and I didn't hesitate; Europe, or at least little bits of it were going to be mine.
The leg of the journey through Amsterdam came about almost as an after thought. Surely we could've spent more time in England, gone to Scotland, or saw more of France; but, Amsterdam was intriguing and it fit nicely into our itinerary.
Breathtaking CanalsIt was a study in humanity,
The doorway to Otto Franks BusinessIt was shocking, it was stunning,
The Aalsmeer Flower Auctionit was heartbreaking,
The Secret Bookcaseit was breathtaking. Hopefully I'll get to go back someday

Looks like a fabulous trip!
THanks for sharing!
My SP9 Pal was from the Netherlands, she's a lovely person. She doesn't post scenery photos very often, those were excellent. Thanks.
Terrific A. Well done. (and thanks for not agreeing that I'm just loony with the bird sounds)
btw - you have the longest string of letters in the word verification of anyone around... what does that say about your blog?
What a wonderful trip! I'm jealous.
