The Kaiserfolk (Carl, Judy, Mark, Saul and Liz) headed to Amsterdam for a five day holiday of museums, site seeing and eating good food. Saul and Liz arrived a couple of days early and also visited Rotterdam as well as the Hague. The review of Holland from Saul and Liz is - if you have not been there you ought to go. A beautiful country with lovely people who almost all speak English (very helpful when your bike breaks down in the country side) as well as good food, museums and lots and lots of canals.
Saul and Liz rented bikes on our first day in Amsterdam. This was our first stop, Dam Square at the heart of downtown Amsterdam. We biked out of town about 2 hours when Liz's bike broke down...
Liz left her broken bike in a small town outside Amsterdam and rode back on the back of Saul's bike which enabled her to take lots of pictures, some better than others. This one is of the back of Saul's head.
Here you can catch a glimpse of the famous windmills of Holland along the Amstel River - the same River that Amstel Beer is proudly named after.
