Amsterdam- 21 March 2018

Today in Amsterdam we visited the Van Gogh Museum and the Ann Frank House

On our way to the Van Gogh Museum we stopped for pastry and coffee.

We walked to the Ann Frank house and got there a bit early so had coffee and herring at a herring stand.

When I ready the Diary of Ann Frank back in seventh grade it made a profound impression on me. So seeing where she and her family hid was very moving.

Our walk back to the hotel was through a beautiful neighborhood.

We stopped for beer at a very old corner bar with a friendly owner who suggested what we should try and let us taste a couple of beers before we ordered.

We had a late lunch at a Greek restaurant.

And then tonight went to a jazz club for some live music.

It was a great day!
