So Amsterdam has been and gone and what fun we all had. I trired my best to take some good photos, but alcohol has a funny effect on the good old camera finger. But here are the ones I got with a brief description of what was going on...etc, etc....hic!!
(note: these pictures are from Thursday night onwards..the cat being the only picture from the thursday..we sent the most part of the night looking for the Hard Rock Cafe...what a jaunt that was)
