My second weekend in Amsterdam, Letizia took the train from Paris to stay the weekend with me. Here's a photo download of some of our adventures!
At my window seat at home,
taken by my professional photographer
We're almost always eating.
This is herring and eel!
At the Huis Marseille, Museum for Photography;
would recommend for the canal house, not the exhibit!
Swimming in tulips at Voldelpark
Indonesian rice table:
The Dutch colonized Indonesia, and like Indian food
in London, there is much Indonesian cuisine here
One of many photos of Leti pointing at things
A favorite, taken by Leti
I mean.
Quiet Dutch mornings at home
At Albert Cuyp market:
Poffertjes, my new obsession
Brunch at Little Collins in De Pijp
Letizia's watercolor of me would've
been much better without a face
Another sweet treat: fresh stroopwafels from Rudi's
#yolo
Drinks and snacks at Café de Sluyswacht
Food was eh, but the beer and view, to die for
Seeing Downton Abbey at the historic, art deco
Pathé Tuschinski
View from our loveseat
Another sweet pancake treat,
during brunch at New Dutch Amsterdam in Joordan
The inspiration of this photo was simply:
Leti liked my blue wall
One small anecdote I'll share is that Letizia and I primarily speak Italian together. Once, a shopkeeper, when we switched from Italian to English, complimented me on my accent. I haven't gotten over that comment - I mean, I have been practicing for going on 35 years!
Perhaps our favorite adventure was discovering an auction house. That deserves its own post, to come!
