Day Seventeen - ms Veendam At Sea Monday 28 July 2014

Up about 7 am -- on Deck Six by 7:30 am -- walked two miles --- glad to be back walking -- then breakfasat in Lido.

Barbara, our location specialist, gave a talk at 10:00 am on things to do in Amsterdam.  I got a few tidbits  -- like pickpockets are everywhere so we need to be cautious.  She also mentioned a "Purses and Pocketbooks" Museum -- I'd love to find that.   Although, I would like to see the major museums while here -- I think the lines will be quite long and we are not willing to wait in line for anything.    We'll see what we can come up with -- it's a large vibrant city and this is our third visit.

Also -- in the Netherlands visitors are required to carry their passports with them at all times and at least in Amsterdam bicyclists have the right of way!  

Thanks for Reading!
