I woke up at 2:15am last night.
Left home a bit sad to leave my two amazing babies sleeping with a bye bye kiss.
Left my car on this new Lisboa parking service.Kind a scary as the guy come pick up the car and leave somewhere.
KLM almost made me loose my flight.
I was thinking my boards were already on the booking and in the end i came up need to pay it.
Loosing a hour on line waiting and be the last person on the plane.Not sure my boards will make it.
Got in Amsterdam 9:00Am .
Very happy to be on a long wait here , cause not many city is that close to the airport and have such many thing to see and a charming city.
Left the beautiful train station;
Did not really have a plan, so went in line for information and saw a bunch of peoples buying the ticket for the boat trip and decided to do it.As i never did before.Must of the photos are from this trip.
Boat way goes for a big open channel where you can see a Movie museum and a cience musuem call Nemo, here below.
Before goe son the channels we saw a view that made think if i wasn't in Chine for a while .
And than you enter on Amsterdam heart and their 160 channels.Got this next 2 photos for show how short the bridges are and all this strong structure to hold every thing.
While cruising you can see a few of their 2500 houses on the channels and start to make feeling how romantic are live on a house like that.I just check if there is some for rent for a short term but did not find anything.As the boat captain told me after finish the trip as much she said is all salt water channels.
Pass by many channels.saw churchs , mayor house, ...
This amazing tower (photo bellow) from a ancient war and made on a beautiful cover on renaissance time and saw this days by tourist like me.
Jewish icon writer Anne Frank's house with a church behind(and a tourist head on the boat that i did not want to cut,haha)
Saw the justice building and a funny touch as on the top of the building i could see some vegetation mix with the normal construction .
Pass by the opera on the only one natural channel from Amsterdam, the Amsterdam river.
Finished by the station again and this funny decorated building.
Went straight rent a bike to cruise(Eric Rebiere facebook post for this Amsterdam journey).
Still many things to see in Amsterdam.
But as i only had a fews hours of sleep and went to the hotel have a rest.
Hope comebakc and see Van Gogh museum as much as Rembrandt or many other city amazing things to do.
Had a really nice sald on this conner called "stout".Bring back the bike by the station on Macbike and my day was over it.
