2013 March - Begium and Netherlands




March 2013 through the snow in Belgium and on to Amsterdam






Managed to battle through the snow in Belgium, fortified by horse-meat sausages and chips in a friendly local café.


















Happy to find blue skies at the campsite (link/lien) near Amsterdam.

Cycled to the metro station at Amstelveen each day and from there to Amsterdam central station.


And what a magnificent station it is.













Cheese shops everywhere of course.















Rembrandtplein




The Nieuwmarkt area.



Quiet canals


..and the famous red-light district 



Very different - the tranquil Begignof













Raw herring with sweet pickles - a popular local snack.



Dam Square in the city centre





The Bazar is a very popular place to eat and drink when you visit the street market. 
















One of the many famous "coffee shops"











A favourite place for a drink or a snack near the house of Anne Frank.
















The Heineken centre is a really good place to visit; the old brewing hall is magnificent.

See you again soon Amsterdam.
