Land of Canals and Cheese

On the 26th we flew to Holland to meet up with Suzanne, Ryan and Seneca.
There is always something so incredibly nice about seeing familiar faces in your new home (not that we live in Holland, but we do now reside in Europe.)
We had three days to trek around Amsterdam and spent a day in Delft.
Amsterdam is a cute city full of canals and over 1200 bridges.
We had a great time with family and enjoyed seeing a new city.

Amsterdam is famous for all of their bikes...

Bridges, Bikes and Canals...make Amsterdam a charming city
More cool Euro bikes
House prices were dictated by their width - most houses are therefore, tall and narrow.
