Amsterdam - water, water, water - bikes, bikes, bikes

I have enjoyed the canals before but this trip I also hopped on a ferry and traveled the harbor and got my first view of a Botel - a "hotel" on a boat!  A completely different perspective of the city.
The general rule seems to be where there is water there are bikes here.  The bikes are just everywhere - the number one way to get around in the central city for sure.
I needed to be pointed in the right direction to my hotel - it took the information station in the train station, then the main tourist information station, a place that focused on getting people hotel rooms, the taxi rank manager at the station and finally the homeless guy I ran across on my walk to the hotel got me there - well worth the coins in my pocket.  And I find from the homeless guy that it is a historically significant place - so everyone should have known where it was!

London England - a few more days

This was the longest part of my stay this trip.  It even included a customer event at the Ice Bar - reminded me that it won't be long and that will be the regular day to day in our lives in Minnesota.
