"I Am Sterdam" at the nicest park...

are many exhibitions of art works.  It is a must to visit there when
you visit Rijksmuseum Amsterdam one day.

Canal



Red Light District Street along Oudezujdas
Achterburgural Canal.  The place is not my favorite to
visit.






Bill, walking through a pedestrian-street of
Red Light District.  Notice the red lights at the doors
where the prostitutes are...
Goodness!  Bill ignores them all the way... 
I am following him very close.



Riding a river cruise ship around Amsterdam for
2 hours. Enjoyed every minute of it...
