"Canal bikes" for rent in Amsterdam, March, 2011. I think they look a little like attached pairs of wooden shoes. |

Antwerp, Belgium, which we visited during our Tulips and Windmills cruise with Viking River Cruises in March of this year. We enjoyed The Netherlands and Belgium very much. |

It has been an AMAZING fun morning, I have traveled to quite a few different places and countries. This is my second visit to Amsterdam, but always enjoy everyones tours of the city. Great choices or A day today.
I love Amsterdam! And the boats do look like wooden shoes! Love them, too! Great post for the A Day!! Hope your week is going well! Enjoy!

Wow, you're back on A again! I love the look of Antwerp and the canal bikes are so cute, Kay. Thanks for sharing your travels with us. Blessings, Jo
Fantastic shots from Amsterdam. I love seeing where you've been.
Your trip is something I have always wanted to do. I guess I will have to keep on dreaming. Terrific photos.
Hah! I was considering Amsterdam too.... in fact I even gave a few moments thought to going through the entire ABC of place I'd been to... but then I forced a reality check on myself and realized the next months could turn insane on me, and it would be insane OF me to commit to such a project. Well, glad I got to visit Amsterdam through your and Dick's lenses.
What fun to ride a "canal bike". Lovely photos.
A tulips and windmills tour? Can't beat that!
Amsterdam and Antwerp look fascinating places.

Nice shots, and the canal bikes do look like wooden shoes.
I probably will be more often now in Amsterdam. My son finally found a house and bought it ! It sits in the middle of the sea, at least it looks like on an artificial extension of Amsterdam. Very difficult to describe. I only saw pictures and didn't understand anything, lol !
I love the canal bikes and the wonderful architecture.
I love the way the houses in Amsterdam lean forward. The river cruises are so much fun aren't they?
Absolutely amazing and beautiful!
Please come and see someArt Expression at my page, thanks.
I'm guessing it was a little cold to interest people in the canal bikes.
What lovely old buildings! And yes, they do look like shoes!
An absolute beauty!
Please come see my Abstract post.
Two great "A" cities! I have been fortunate to have visited both of them and your photos portray them well!
So pleased to have more of your travel pictures, Kay, - these are magnificent.
Beautiful again! And, I agree. Those canal bikes look like huge white wooden shoes (must be on purpose).
Wonderful shots of the city.
so did you go on the "clogs" and exercise your legs?
If the first picture looks like wooden shoes, the last one looks like a long bar of dark chocolate. What a beautiful place to spend time in! That lamppost caught my attention amid everything. Thanks for sharing!
Love your photos of the "A" cities.
Such a wonderful city to visit and wander.
I would love to go there someday! in the meantime, your photos are already giving me a pre-view. thanks!
