Quirky buildings |
Things that look like baby triffids |
Bookish things |

I'm no photographer and these are just from my iphone but I thought I'd share anyway.
It looks like a beautiful city. I've never been. It's nice that you were able to find so many books while there. I travel with a fully stocked e-reader (it's great to be able to take my library with me!), but I love being able to find quaint bookstores that allow me to experience the bookish culture of a place.
ReplyDeleteLooks like a fabulous trip! And that cookbook store is awesome :)
ReplyDeleteVery nice! I love Amsterdam and cannot visit too often - if only I didn't live so very far away!
ReplyDeleteIf we would have gone to holiday this year it would have probably been to Amsterdam. Very good catches :)
ReplyDeleteWoooooow, so many lovely things to see! I love all the quirky window art and interesting buildings. I've never been to Amsterdam, but it's definitely on my mental list of places I'd like to go. :)
ReplyDeleteThis is SOOO COOOL! Thank you for sharing. I wanna go. hehe
ReplyDeleteI love your photos.
ReplyDeleteI was there way back when in 1991, so it's all pretty hazy. But I love your book focus and the canals are always lovely.
Thanks for the memories :-)
