Cool wedding car!!!
The famous Vondel Park of Amsterdam. We cycled inside. It was so nice seeing families together having picnic there. What was especially heartening was seeing a lot of fathers spending time with their young children. I recall a man jogging in the park and pushing a baby pram at the same time!
We went to Heineken Brewery. The first Heineken brewery was in Amsterdam. It's more like a museum now. It cost 15 euros to get in but it comes with 2 free drinks! I highly recommend this place to anyone who will visit Amsterdam.
On a Sunday, we decided to cycle to Zaanse Schans, which is about 20 km away from Amsterdam, North of Holland. It was quite an adventure, we passed by many scenic areas like the one shown in the above. What a treat to see the sky all the way to its horizon. At Zaase Schans, you can see traditional windmills. Honestly, the place is overrated and only tourists go there. I didn't get good pictures of them. But you can always google them out right? :)
I rode this bike for 3 days. It's apparently a child bike cos the smallest adult bike was too big for me to handle. We biked a lot, so much that I had 7 bruises, a fall and a butt ache at the end of it. Traffic in the Netherlands flows on the right. Same for all cyclists, so it was rather hard to get used to it at first. Because 1 in 2 people's personal transport is biking in Amsterdam, you can imagine it's not a leisurely thing. It did get us from Point A to B fast though.
