Last night the time change really caught up with us all. 3a.m. rolled around and we were all wide awake! So we watched Amsterdam at night from our window which was really neat to see. The city was so busy even in the middle of the night.
Today we went on a canal tour throughout the whole city. We were able to take a bunch of different canal tour boats through the whole city. We saw the Anne Frank House from the outside. There are over 2500 houseboats that line the canals of Amsterdam..one I saw even had a hammock..now that would be the life.
We stopped and ate at a Doner Kebab place that was delicious...turns out our dutch isn't as good as we thought, and we didn't quite end up with what we ordered but it was delicious all the same.
Amsterdam is the city of bicycles! They are everywhere and definitely have the right of way ahead of people. We learned that there are over 50,000 bike thefts per year in Amsterdam which surprised me because everyone already has a bike!
It was a busy day, and I think we're all pretty tired. Andrew gets in tomorrow morning...wish him some luck finding his way here alone on the public transportation!
