I greatly enjoyed looking at your vacation photos tonight! :)
Amazingly, I'm heading out to Amsterdam this coming Friday!!! My brother and I are staying a week in Amsterdam, though we have plans to visit another European country/city on the trip (ie: a train trip to Brussels in Belgium and/or a city in Germany, like Frankfurt or Dusseldorf).
Heheh! I'm so glad you enjoyed your vacation trip.
I'm also glad you got the chance to visit the Juno Beach Centre! That's a place I'd love to visit and pay my respects to the soldiers who stormed Normandy Beach on D-Day.
They have tours for Amsterdam. We took the $32 Euros one to visit Marken and see the Holland countryside. It was a lot of fun if you aren't getting a rental car.
Amsterdam, the city itself, was awesome.
You have to try the following Dutch foods:
Fries with Mayo Stamppot Stroopwaffle - the hot ones straight out of the pan Pickeled/Salted Herring (comes in a hotdog bun sometimes) Pancake with raisin and bacon Poffertjes - served with hot butter and powdered sugar Krokets - a place called Febo sells them. You slot random coins for a box of food you want until it opens up. Around $1.40 euros.
