But the day started with mini Dutch pancakes from the best shop in Holland. Loyally, she says that they are "almost as good as Daddy's" Also fruit..
And hot chocolate served with a whole plate of whipped cream on the side.
Here's some advertisement
Around the town they visited the flea market, where Catherine got real Birkenstock sandals. Scattered around were these statues of rabbits that were painted in different ways, just like horse statues are painted here in Ogden.
This bunny seems to be having an identity crisis. Bunny or duck or maybe even pikachu?
I'm not clear as to whether she saw a dollhouse museum, shop, or children's museum, but she found this object for me to put in my dollhouse someday.
It's a miniature silver, gutted pig. What more could any enthusiast want?
They got to visit the Van Gogh museum and also the Rijksmuseum, both of which she found interesting, and the floating flower market. But being my daughter, and knowing me well, knew that these would be the pictures I like best.
Just look at all that cheese!!! She sampled all kinds of flavors including pesto and asparagus cheese.
The rest of the group did plenty of sampling too, so everyone was glad when Catherine actually bought some.
And to wash down all the goodies, there is juicy water.
Or, if you like coffee, there are some very good brews.
Also a strong contender for favorite Amsterdam feature, are giant vats of Nutella.
After talking to Catherine today, Amsterdam has shot to the top of my "Must see" list of places.
After a group dinner, there was a mass exodus to H&M to buy leggings (most of the group is female) to stay warm in church tomorrow.
