England 2018 (Part 4)

For me, no visit to England is complete without going away from the United Kingdom and visiting my favorite city: Amsterdam. This city is far away but you can take the speed bullet, known as Eurostar and in four hours you are there. 

We are happy!

Things to love about Amsterdam? Everything! Just everything! Our Airbnb was just two blocks from the main square and we were just a few minutes from all the bars, stores, and markets. You can see the images and decide what you are looking at. 

This city is just, well, magical in a sense. The canals, the buildings, the people, everything!

Of all the cities I have visited, this one would be the one I would want to retired to. 

WHEN IN LONDON, VISIT AMSTERDAM PART 2

Amsterdam is broken down into section and this sections are marked by the different canals found all over the city.

The canals are so beautiful and so wide that when there is a parade, it takes place in the canals rather than the streets.

Some people say all the canals look the same but I found it unique because each has something different to offer.

The canals are used by boats which take tourist on different tours.

There are so many different type of canal tours with different teams and different points of view that it could be overwhelming to decide which boat tour to take.

Even though it was tempting, I did not take any boat tours. I decided to do my touring by foot and on my own.

What amazed me the most about the canals is the fact that there are 'boat houses,' and they are beautiful boat houses. 

Some decorated very artistically. 

Some very simple.

And others are simply "pet shelters." Talking about loving animals!

And the views are magnificent!!!
