Holland Part 4

The last few days were spent in Amsterdam. Here are the sites and things we did:

We visited the Rijks Museum where they have many works of art from Rembrandt and Vermeer. We also went next door to the Van Gogh museum to see his works of art.

While visiting the museums, we found the I AMsterdam sign, so we had to get some pictures there in front of it.

We walked through the giant Flower market where we picked up our wooden dutch shoes and of course bought tulip bulbs to bring home. Hannah was so excited to buy her tulips!

We visited the Anne Frank house/museum. It was very interesting to see the house she hid in and learn more about her life. Hannah was really fascinated in Anne Frank and said it was one of the things she remembers most. I hope she remembers it when she learns about Anne Frank in school... odds are she won't be you never know.

This is the skinniest house in the "world'. It is the reddish blds (three over from the left).

There were pancakes houses all over the city and after seeing one pancake we knew we had to get one. This is the one Ella ordered. Ice cream, chocolate sauce and whipped cream. Seriously, who wouldn't like a pancake like that? My daughter that's who... she only at the ice cream. But i ate quite a bit and let me tell you, it was GOOD!

This is Ella with her aunt Jamie. It took her awhile to remember Jamie and learn her name, but once she did.... Ella wouldn't stop saying it and loved being with her aunt!

This is us out in the city enjoying the sites. My camera at this point started to give up the ghost. Good thing we were almost done with the trip.
