Biking in Amsterdam

Photobucket
Last time we were here, it was scary trying to dodge trams, busses, cars, bikes, motorcycles, people and dog shit. This time by recommendation from our official Amsterdam tourguide Jake, we went biking. We went all over town, we were on small alley ways and busy roads, we even went through the park. After a long bike ride we realized we didn't get any good video. So, of course we did what was probably a ten mile ride, again. It was fun, though partly through it we sure started to ache. We desided to take it easy today, since we can't even walk around without hurting. How do the Dutch do it? They must have buns of steel. All and all, it was worth it, we had a great ride all around Amsterdam and we survived. We even got to experience a real Amsterdam bike theft. When we woke up this morning, our friend's bike was gone from the front yard. No worries, he says its all just part of Amsterdam.

Wow the bike ride through town sounds so great. How is the "cooking" going Miranda? I've never done this blogging stuff, aren't you proud of your old mom?? The first time I got on I was able to look at a bunch of pictures and now I can't figure out how I did it. There was like over 120 pictures. Do you know how I can get back to them. mom

Mom, click on any photo and it should take you there. However I think you were looking at some photos from our last trip here... That has been fixed and all the photos you see should be new ones now. Cooking Is going well, and we are eating good even if we don't quite know what it is.
