And now for the not so beautiful...apparently they just crowned a King for the first time since the 1800's, thank goodness we didn't come the day before or we would have been right in the middle of the festivities.
The boys enjoyed sampling cheese at the Cheese Factory
Playing at the park
and kebabs & frites

We also visited the Anne Frank hiding place (the primary reason we came to Amsterdam)
Amsterdam is a major biking city, in fact everywhere we went in the Netherlands we would see people biking. Teenagers ride bikes around here rather than driving around in cars. Here is a three story bike parking garage. Haven't seen this many bikes since Beijing!
There are fields of cows and sheep everywhere, even right by the cities.
We camped near the Keukenhof Gardens at the Koningshof. It was such an awesome place. They had a great playground for the kids, goats, a rabbit, chickens and birds as well as a swimming pool and a fresh pastries in the morning. We could easily have spent a week here and never been bored. And for 20 euro a night, it can't be beat!
Warm, flaky chocolate filled pastries...YUM
Even baby had a good time ;)
