RE: Amsterdam : Capital of the Netherlands / Hauptstadt der Niederlande
A lovely city to explore, loaded with history, getting lost down the alley ways is part of the fun. Seeing how people live under quaint lamp lanterns and bicycle cops in town @adalger thanks for sharing.
It must be really great to live in this city, but on the other hand it might also create some problems if you are living directly in one of the biggest tourist spots in europe .. I really had some problems to find a place for a quick and "cheap" food and drink shopping .. this is a city you have to be able to pay to live in .. but if you have the money you are a lucky citizen ;) .. and you better are a frustration resistent driver, hehe ^^
When we traveled in the 1970's there were not so many people, not as many restrictions and definitely not so expensive.
On our currency today we would never be able to afford what we did then, I am glad we traveled when we were young and fit did a lot of walking around Amsterdam. Also visited the mother-in-laws village of Hilversum where she was born.
