Amsterdam!

Abomoso Day 4

Blast from the past!

So I decided that today I would go back and post a little about our short, but sweet trip to Amsterdam.

So when we got to the airport and realized we had well over 6 hours to kill and that it only took 20 minutes to get to the main city center, Emily, Joey, Spencer and I jumped on the opportunity to take a look around.

We didn’t know much about the city, but for everything we didn’t know, we sure felt good about all we got to see.

We walked the streets (I loved seeing Spencer next to this car), tried some bakery items, bought a delicious French hot dog (even though we were in Holland),



Tried to visit some pretty big churches and buildings but they all cost money


Emily, Joey and Spencer in the main square


Enjoyed the canal scene





And at least got to the see the outside of all the great buildings and cool statues



It’s obvious that we didn’t REALLY get to experience the life and culture of Holland, but we did get some fun pictures and I would rather kill my time in a Scandinavian city than in the drab airport anyday!
