Amsterdam

I arrived in Amsterdam last night. Our train was delayed because of "engine trouble" and we went though a fair bit of snow. But it is dry here and i did find my hostel. It's still very cold and I don't know what I want to do other than the Anne Frank house, maybe the Van Gogh museum and there's supposed to be a film festival going on right now. And shop. Ahhh. The door is open and I'm freezing. Yay for free internet and free breakfast and a kitchen. But the actual dorms are pretty cramped. Cold, its so cold.

It's always good to see a post from you when I check your blog each morning! Amsterdam is a place I'd like to visit, too. I read THE DIARY OF ANN FRANK when I was a child and have been fascinated by her story every since. Love you!

Checking your blog is my first morning act, so it is always good to see a new post. The Ann Frank museum should be fascinating. Stay warm!

Brannon, the Anne Frank museum is a must see. It is fascinating. You might also enjoy Madame Tussault(sp)wax museum. It is a fun way to spend an afternoon. You can have your picture taken with lots of famous people (LOL). The plaza outside this museum is FULL of pigeons (or at least it was when we were there but there was no snow then!). Have a wonderful time. It is an interesting city.

Hey Brannon - it's good to read your blog. It like vicariously touring Europe.

Hope you are warm by now and find a warmer internet cafe.

Remember - layers!

Good morning Brannon, it is good to read your Blog each morning. I remember well a bus tour of Amsterdam. On one of your grandfather and my trips to the Holy Land, we stopped in Amsterdam. Bus tour. The bus made a few stops, one at a Wooden Shoe place and of course, the huge windmills. One would think the Anne Frank Museum wuld have been on our iternery, but was not. Typical tourist thinking I suppose. Stay warm and take care of yoru beautiful self! You are lawys in my thoughts and prayers with much love. Thanks for the card!
