Fell in love with Amsterdam when we visited in 2016. Canal tour in late afternoon in late March.
ReplyDeleteA wonderful scene with the lights on the water. Interesting your post!
ReplyDeleteI have been to Amsterdam a number of times, and always enjoy the galleries etc. But the houses and shops on both sides of the canals make this city stand out.
