Today - Thursday

Hey Guys,

First of today we went up in a cable car







At the top



Sun was out but it was windy, and there was snow further up



At the top there is an extreme sport, biking to the bottom





Gift shop at the top with toys like this



On the way back down we could see the bikers below us



And wondered how they got their biks up there



Next we visited this place





Which had this outside an ice cream shop



With shops like this



A look down by the water



another of the town



And then finally went to visit this place on the way back to the Hotel

Enjoying 1st day back at work?? :no:X_X

Oh first day back at work today was BAD. I really did not want to go back to work. And the lazy people that I work with did not do what I told them to do.

Swapping 8 laptops out today and not a single one had been built

Only 4 more days to go till the weekend. YAY!

 

[yoyo888]

Took Mum to this place last week, so I wandered around town while I waited for her, and came across this lock. Where was I ?

 

[yoyo888]

Hey Guys,

I'm off away again for a week (as mentioned in my thread). So I will up some pics of the journey and also the place will be at.

Hope the phone battery will last as I think it is about a 5 hour journey. Not sure how many miles, but dont want to give anything away at the moment.

Till later......

Hi Yoyo - have a wonderful time there in Amsterdam. And if you like cigars it would be a must for you to go to P.G.C. Hajenius. The shop you will find on Rokin 96 - it is near the Central Station. :thumbs up:

 

[yoyo888]

Here are some pics from last night after I posted the first batch of pics

We ate here



Then a walk around after







With amazing shops like this

On one of the bridges



Looking down one of the canals



Of course it is all legal here



Today we did a boat trip around all the canals



The narrowest house in Amsterdam







Very strange building. Apparently there is a sand area on top to sun bathe

Have you been at the Anne Frank house at the Prinsengracht 263-267?

Before visiting the windmills we went to see how clogs are made





This cute thing was at the place in the shop







The windmill we visited was making paint for artists



What a colorful bus



And then back to Amsterdam
