Today in the morning after breakfast we did some shopping in the streets around the hotel for a while, when our hands were full we went and dropped our bags off at the hotel.
We then decided to go on a canal cruise. Anniek was not really interested in the cruise so we got off a stop early which was almost right outside of the Anne Frank House.
We grabbed a bite to eat for lunch at a coffee house just up the street because it was lunch time and Anniek was hungry.
When done we went into the line for the Anne Frank House, but it was getting cooler and a bit windy and the line was huge so we decided to come back later, after we got sweaters from the hotel first.
So we walked back to the hotel and found a shopping center on the way back, so we stopped in and looked around. After the shopping center we saw the Royal Palace and in front of the Royal Palace there were a couple horse and carriage tours. Anniek wanted to go on one but they cost $35 Euro for 20 minutes, so not worth it, so we didn't do it.
Batman was also there, so I got her picture taken with Batman.
There were also a bunch of pigeons that would come and land on your arms if you put them up beside you. Anniek LOVED it that the birds came and landed on her arms.
When Anniek got to play with the birds for a good amount of time we went back to our hotel and dripped off the stuff from the shopping center and got our sweaters.
We then walked back to the Anne Frank House. The line was in the same spot as when we left it earlier. It was very interesting, but Anniek was not too interested as she didn't understand about it and was trying to just get through each room quickly.
We then wondered the street around the Anne Frank House and stopped at another cheese place and they had cheese that came in different colors. They had Green cheese (Pesto), Blue cheese (Pesto/Lavender), and Pink (forgot the flavor) Gouda cheese!!!
Anniek wanted a pack of blue cheese to bring home so we got a pack of it as they package it so it is good out of the fridge for up to 4 weeks and its fine on the plane.
We then headed back to the hotel for dinner and stopped at a Chinese place for dinner. The food was very good compared to the stuff we have back home. Joann then took Anniek and found a bakery while I got a break and we met up at the hotel and had some very nice treats before bed.
Happy Halloween!
