Amsterdam



Amsterdam is about 3 hours from our home right now so it seemed like and interesting place to have Jared fly into for Christmas break. Since he was arriving early in the morning, we decided to go down early and poke around. It was bitterly cold, but we walked around the 9 area and peeked into the shops. They have a little bit of everything from cheese to flower bulbs. There were a few stalls out, so we had to grab a chocolate dipped waffle and an apple turn over to snack on. It is a very pretty city to visit and looking at the boats in the canal was fun. It's hard to imagine that some are actually peoples homes. There was even ice in the canals and it looked like broken glass. We plan on spending a little extra time there before Jared flies out.
