Got Futbol? Got Spirit!


Tobias and The Look

Day (2) in Amsterdam and we went biking, again. This time, we didn't cycle as far because of how much territory we covered the prior evening. Tamarah and I trekked to the Dutch House of Pancakes for lemon/sugar pancakes (She ordered bacon). These are flat, and doughy with slight crisp on the edge. Delicious! I cannot get enough of the fresh fruit and bread --The Vincent Van Gogh Museum was next, which was such a treat. Dad -- We even took the audio tour!! This is something I could even help with - biographical and even psychological analysis of an artist and his/her body of work as interpreted by artists and critiques alike. What I wouldn't give to work on this in the future! I purchased a small print of "The Sower" for 8,00 euros, soon to be lost very soon after, along with my only jacket, and my hostel confirmations (Thank goodness for family -- printers galore!)...Yes, I lost my first few important items on this trip. Considering that it was a personal souvenir, it wasn't too much of a loss. All of the rest of you have your trinkets in tact in my suitcase. Blessed are you! We spent the evening at Vondel Park having a picnic for dinner (very much like Central Park in NY where crowds relax around the ponds and paths)..The end of the day we celebrated a friend's end of her educational internship. Proost! A beautiful day.
