Amsterdam--Check

I guess I should have mentioned exactly what I have been doing in Amsterdam. I did explore Vondelpark, the Van Gogh museum, and all the old churches. I think my favorite sight may have been the flower market. It was so pretty, and I was amazed at some of the flowers, I had no idea some looked like onions before planted. So today I finished up my to-do list with a canal boat ride. Today was overcast, damp, and there was a chill in the air, so being enclosed in a boat for an hour was nice. It was fun, interesting, I got to see several bike parks, or storage areas for the bikes. I looked it up, in a city with approximately 738K people, there are about 600K bikes. That's insane is all I have to say. I fell in love with a falafel place on the corner, I've never had it before, but the lines were ridiculous so I figured I had to try it. I've now had it three times and will miss it once I move on. Who knew. Now the rest of my evening will be spent trying to pack and shove my belongings into my suitcase. I'm not adding anything, but somehow everything keeps getting heavier. Ugh
