A Day Out in Amsterdam



Ya know something- Covid was interesting. On one hand, I enjoyed the simplicity of it all- stay home. Which involved eating, sleeping, doing puzzles, and making sure I bathed. Kind of like a little baby. 

On the other hand, it increased this desire to tick off cities from my Travel Bucket List, which sits proudly on my fridge. One of those cities- 


AMSTERDAM


Also known as "The City of Fun". Actually, I don't know if that's true, that's just what I coined it because I had so much of it. Oh, but here's what I do know (now)- 


• Amsterdam is the capital of the Netherlands

• People from the Netherlands are also called "Dutch" (which up until the trip confused it with Danish)

• Holland is a region within the Netherlands


Europe, eh?





Truth be told- this day out was really more like 2.5 days, but for editing + YouTube purposes, it's better sold as a day out and could probably be done in a day, but you'd be reaaaaaally tired. So why do that to yourself? Relaaaax. Take your time and do it over a couple of days. 


THE DAY OUT



Gebroeders Niemeijer - Artisanal French Bakery

You know it's good when the bread makes a little crunch.  Watch the video below to see how I mean. 



WONDR Experience - experience the art of play

I would 100% return just to go to this place. I've never had so much fun in my post-covid life! 





The Avocado Show

Delicious! Pricey, I mean it's avocados in a country where they don't really grow, but delicious!





Rijksmuseum

We went to see Van Gogh's self-portrait- it was in London.  So here's a photo of me in the oldest library in the Netherlands. 





Rudi's Original Stroopwafel

If you're a fan of the Starbucks ones, then head over to this place. But if you're like me and love cake, skip it and visit a pancake cafe! Now that's my jam! 


Kind of like these places-




Moak Pancakes 

Sugar-free pancakes that actually taste nice. 





Pancakes Amsterdam

I don't know- it feels more like a crepe. But you didn't hear it from me!


Enjoy the vlog!
