Amsterdam Getaway

We had been feeling a little down last week…our house hunt is not going so well and we were a little homesick. So we decided what better way to celebrate the 4th of July and to get our minds off things than to take a little trip to Amsterdam. We left early Saturday morning and arrived in Amsterdam about 10 a.m. Amsterdam is about 2.5 hours away from us, so not a bad drive. We checked into our hotel and quickly went out exploring. What a wonderful, amazing city! Amsterdam is filled with history, canals and friendly people. We spent the 2 days wandering around and taking in the beautiful sights. We had a great time and Cooper was very well behaved for his first stay in a hotel. We posted some photos of the trip at: http://picasaweb.google.com/deidre.weber

We are back in Attendorn, it’s a new week and we are optimistic that we will find a house in the next month. In the meantime we are going to focus on our next trip…

What fun! Amsterdam looks a lot prettier than I thought it would be. I always think brothels and lots of smoke. :) You didn't miss much at the cottage from what I hear. We missed it too. It's weird not being at the cottage.
