Amsterdam

This Weekend we went to Amsterdam for a long Weekend.
 I'd never been before so was extremely excited to see what all the fuss was about.
We got there late Thursday night so decided to grab some food have a quick wonder and go to bed so we were fresh for the next day.

In true tourist style we jumped on the tram early and headed for central station then walked from there into the center. We started the day by grabbing breakfast then booking one of the famous canal boat trips, but honestly it wasn't that great. We had more fun walking around with a map in hand finding things for ourselves.

So the next stop was the sex museum.

  

     

  

Very funny and interesting time we had.. who knew people were so dirty back in the day?!

We moved on to all the other touristy stops 

 

Then wondered along the Canals 

                We ate some amazing food while there. I highly recommend CAU in Dam Sqaure,
                                                    great steak and amazing wine!

  

  

Sunday was our last full Day and the sun was shinning. So we walked for hours exploring even more.

Central Station

We stopped for a tea and a quick snack, after studying the menu i decided on a crépe.

              

                                                              The 'all red crépe'
                              Fresh strawberries, strawberry sauce and starwberry ice-cream.

 

After a little more walking around the streets we headed back to the hotel for a little siesta then went for dinner to an amazing Sushi place just by the flower market along the canal. 

 

Great way to end a fab city break. Looking forward to the next one!
