Fourth trip to Amsterdam, first one in the summer. Well other than the one last July when I was on the ground for a shorter time than I was on airplanes coming and going.
Had a lot of fun this trip. No "coffee houses" for me, but other fun.
Statues are from Rembrandtplein. They're figures from a Rembrandt painting (follow that Wikipedia link). When I was here a year and a half ago they had just been erected. I was sure there was a sign saying it was a temporary thing.
The manager of the software consultants arranged some activities. One was a tour of a distillery where they made a liqueur. Good Stuff. Free samples. Several.
The distillery visit was part of a walking tour which, of course, had to take in the Red Light District, "De Wallen". I've wandered thru this area before but never noticed the sculpture set in the cobblestones next to the Old Church. Oh, and this area is way busier in the summer than winter!
