Adam was kind enough to drive us to the airport and then drive to Grama's to deliver tomato seedlings. Thanks, Adam.
The flight was calm for the most part with only some short and mild turbulence. When we arrived in Amsterdam there was lots of walking and to my astonishment, free toilets.
The tram we took to our hotel was super efficient and the customer service agent on the tram was amazingly helpful.
We dumped our luggage at the hotel and decided to start sightseeing. First stop was the Rijkmuseum where we lined up for ages to get in to ... the line for the entry tickets. We were tired and hungry and decided to try the Van Gough museum and, same deal.
We kept walking and found an underground grocery store where Carl attained some chips, beer and wine after which we had some lunch and regrouped. We decided to pass on the Heineken experience because Carl saw it last time he was here and frankly, I do not drink beer and it was not worth 17 euros to see it. The waitress at the restaurant suggested we go to the Albert Cuypmarkt which is a huge flea market. At the entrance to the street is a sign that says "Beware of pickpockets".
There are bikes everywhere and you don't dare step off the curb without looking first..
We are currently trying to decide whether to crash or keep going.
Bye for now.
