Unexpected Amsterdam!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

After the time it took some to watch a few movies and others to take a nice nap, we landed in Paris, France. The plane we took from Paris was delayed because of a snow storm, and before we knew it, we were stranded in Amsterdam for the day. We jumped on the opportunity, put our stuff in lockers, and bought the next train tickets to the city. Amsterdam was really really cold. We saw beautiful architecture, lots of bicycles, an extensive tram system, and lastly, the Vincent Van Gogh Museum, pictured below.


The Vincent Van Gogh Museum was beautiful. It brought out the artists in us, and I think by the end, many of us wanted a canvas to paint on.

Not too far away from the Van Gogh Museum, we ran into a giant I amsterdam sign, and conveniently posed by it for the picture above.

See what we mean by the bicycles. Really, they were EVERYWHERE.


This is just one of the many beautiful buildings we saw (we think it might be the Neue Kirke) , and in front of it is a tram.

Next, on to Tanzania!
