Amsterdam, Netherlands Part 2

Our second full day in Amsterdam started off with breakfast at Bagels & Beans again - this time the Dutch Weed Burger - Yum!


















Rijksmuseum










They were filming something here - everyone dressed in orange for the Netherlands and they were going crazy cheering when the cameras rolled. It was fun to watch










Flower Market




National Ballet & Opera house

They had a free lunchtime concert the day we were there so we went to check it out. We arrived about a half hour early which was good becase there was already a huge line waiting to get in. 

You couldn't take photos during the performance, but it was a lot of fun. It was a chorus and they sang some silly songs and I really enjoyed it

Such a grey day



Lunch at Katkil & Tijger - this was not the most veggie friendly place. Nothing was listed that we could eat, but online it said there were options...really for lunch they have bowls where you pick a few things and that is what you get. It was all veggies and good, but nothing crazy fun





More snacks from Vegabond - cinnamon sugar doughnut

And Oreo Cupcake

With an Oreo inside!




That afternoon we took a boat tour wth Those Dam Boat Guys. Now their website made it seem like they were fun and there would be jokes and everything like that....but this tour was sooooo boring! Like it was nice being in a boat, but our tour guide put me to sleep. Seriously. He talked soooo quietly and monotone and was just like lulling me to sleep. I didn't really learn anything and if we hadn't have done the walking tour the day prior we wouldn't have gotten much of the history. It was very dissapionting. 





Bike parking at the train station















Dinner at Ko Chang - tofu satay

Pad See Eew

And Pad Thai - so tasty! We wanted to come back and get food for the train ride home, but unfortunately they are only open for dinner
