Amsterdam



I woke up early this morning and went for a nice run. This is the first of Sarah's flags. I took this picture and then planted the flag by the windmill.

After my run, Gillbert and I took the train into Amsterdam. This is such an amazing city. It is amazingly liberal, maybe even too liberal???

Spent a great afternoon at my favorite museum, the Van Gogh museum. The musuem does justice to its amazing namesake. Sorry, I forgot my camera on this part of the day, so you will just have to go visit the museum yourself.

Nice dinner at an Italian restaurant across the street from the hotel.

Early to Brugge tomorrow, so I am not staying out late. Not many pictures today but enjoy:

  1. The app you're using to map your runs is cool. I need to check that out!

    Sounds like you're having a good start to your trip - yay! Happy travels!
