On the weekend my dutchie friend took me out to Zaans Schans which is about 20mins out of Amsterdam. It was the first weekend in over ten years that you could walk and skate on the rivers and lakes in Holland. Sooooooo much fun!!!
.
There were lots of windmills in the area. On the video you can see people walking & skating on the ice. These little rivers weaved through the fields / wetlands that you can see in the background.

Ahh! that looks amazing.
My sister apparently looooved Amsterdam, saw all the museums and Anne Frank's house andonly 1 sex show. And didn't fall into (onto?) a canal.
Depends which canal she was near as to whether she fell into / onto it : )
All of the canals in the city have now melted - but it's cool seeing the broken up panes(?) of ice floating in them.
I haven't really done anything touristy here yet, did lots of it last time I came over, I'm not really into the museum scene anyway, I'm thinking I'll just take myself around on one of Rick Steves' walking tours from my friend's travel book.
