I am still in Amsterdam, In my hotel room and tomorrow I’ll get back to Portugal. But not before I write some thoughts about this city.

Bicicles in Amsterdam
It’s a nice city, there are a lot of bicicles, and you should be very carefull when crossing the streets or you can cause an accident – bicicles have priority over cars, people… everything.
The city itself has a nice architectural feeling around the water canals (grachts, as they call it here).
But there’s one thing I didnĀ“t like at all:
Everything is paid. Well, this is not a surprise but every monument will ask for an overrated ammount. The city has around 50 museums.
Woth it:
- Tropenmuseum
- Hop On – Hop Off (Boat)
- Verzetsmuseum (Dutch Resistance Museum)
- Anne Frank House (Be sure to be in the mood. Otherwise skip.)
Not worth it:
- Rijksmuseum (Big queue, big and beautifull building from the outside, 11eur, and very small exhibition)
- Food.
Ok, that’s it. Tomorrow I’ll fly back to Portugal..
…a little after the Turkish airlines plane crash…
