Over the Bridges and Through the Canals to Amsterdam We Go!

Amsterdam is the first city that Aaron and I have "doubled up" on with our traveling. But did we like it again as much as we liked it the first time? You'll have to read and find out.

One of Aaron's coworkers is on an assignment in Amsterdam, so the reason for the trip was really to see her. We went with three of his other coworkers who we play dodgeball with. Our group photo is above : )

After walking around all day on Saturday, we decided to see the city on a bike tour Sunday. Good decision: the way to see the city is really from two wheels. There are so many canals, lots of bike paths and the city is very flat (our guide joked that the bridges were mountains so you might feel light headed at the top.) Being from the PNW, Aaron and I were like, these are no mountains!

We covered so much ground and saw so many things we hadn't seen on our previous trip to the city. Plus everyone rides bikes in Amsterdam. You feel like a local ...but most definitely still look like a tourist.

And yes, we liked it just as much the second time.
