We made it to Amsterdam! After all the worry about our connecting flight we ended up having plenty of time to sit and have a coffee before the last leg of our many flights to get us to the other side of the world. Not too much jet lag either and Amsterdam is quite an amazing city with its beautiful old buildings.
glad to transfers went through easily and timely - lovely canal shot - my visit to Amsterdam was bitterly cold and miserable - it was January - no lovely green trees to be seen.
So glad you arrived safely and without hassle. This is such a typical Amsterdam scene - isn't it lovely. Hope the weather turns round for you - we are all in dispair at the lack of Spring warmth and sunshine. Happy exploring.
@happysnap the weather is actually really nice! It rained on our first afternoon but otherwise has been lovely. Read "Aussies happy to be out of the burning sun"
@lbmcshutter I kept thinking of your dream run through customs and it was the same for us :) I'm not sure I could cope being here in January but I think it would be wonderful to see.
@filsie65 thank you Phil, we are so happy to be here, Amsterdam is certainly an experience.
@gerry so kind of you Gerry, thanks for the fav :)
@bella_ss very happy to hear you had a similar run through customs - there has to be some advantage to arriving at heathrow at such a horribly early hour
@elaine55 I don't think so Elaine, I think that might be taking our life in our own hands, lol. The traffic is a little crazy with trams, buses, cars and push bikes!
@seanoneill Thanks Sean, Customs behaved and let us through really quickly :)
@nicoleterheide I'm very excited to be here! We are going to quite a few countries, first up is a cruise down the Rhine.
@gerry thanks Gerry, we were a little worried when it rained yesterday but today has been beautiful!

This is a lovely composition, they are great buildings. Are you going to cycle there as it is very popular?
