Amsterdam Travel Blogs - Page 10

Hard to believe I was back in Europe again already! I just left in early January and did not think I would see another trip to the NL before Brett moved to Taiwan! After figuring out a way to bring me back for a few days, seemed like the time flew!  I left on a Friday afternoon and was meeting…

Living close to Amsterdam I happen to be there every now and then to do an errand. Often got my camera with me, so here are some pictures

There is nothing more to tell or add about this meet up that has not been told. It was exciting (finally we meet), it was fun (lots of laughs), well.. it was just great (everyone is nice and helpful.. nuff respect!!).

TB Queensday in Amsterdam

This nite didn't seem to be a huge success. For a long time there was only 2 confirmed, me and Kat. I wasn't sure is it even gonna happen. Then Manuel contacted me and asked if I wanna join him and two other guys for drinks on Friday nite. I said that we're gonna have a meet-up so why don't they jo…

I,ve stolen some pictures from other travbuddies (sorry sorry sorry! as soon as i have a new camera i,ll make it up to you all). It was a great evening and i hope to meet all of the TB,x soon again.

I made it and I wanted more... (UNDERCONSTRUCTION)

What a sin city.

One of the bigger challenges of my trip (of any trip, I guess) will be finances. A couple of years ago the Dutch government introduced this 'great' initiative "Levensloopsparen", or path-of-life-savings (you gotta love those brilliant names only governments can come up with). This is the option to …

Amsterdam has been a great city to visit, and has given me incentive to explore the rest of the Netherlands. The Dutch are friendly, speak English well, and most seem to have a good sense of humor. Also, the women are attractive for the most part, which doesn't hurt. So much for the Dutch having …

So I arrived in Amsterdam on Friday June 12 around 7:30 am.  After a frantic week and final 24 hours of packing and trying to finish things at the office I made my flight with plenty of time, only to be delayed by a thunderstorm.  We had to sit on the runway for quite awhile but made up t…

We woke up early, why we did, don't tell me, because there was no need for it.However.... I've been at Koblenz many years ago, on a daytrip from Luxemburg, I just wanted to see the river Rhine there again. (We've seen lots of the bigger rivers the past days).So we were looking out of our windo…

Rob and I met up for breakfast and then checked out and stored our bags at the hotel.  We wanted to spend a bit more time in Amsterdam before heading back to Brussels. We walked over to the Waterlooplein and saw a 3D movie called 'The Holland Experience.'  It was informative, but a littl…

Ok several of you know and I think a few of you have guessed and everyone wants to hear the story so this blog is a special, kind of personal, edition in my Europe travels. I finished work for the month on August 5th, so packed myself a bag, hopped on a train and headed to Amsterdam to meet up with…

On 30th was the pre-party at karaoke bar Casablanca and on the next day THE party at a party boat !
