A Day in Amsterdam

Never a dull moment! We spent a good chunk of our Wednesday at the Rijksmuseum. Not nearly enough time!  It was a nice way to spend a rainy morning.

As the rain gave way to sun and we topped off our first visit to Amsterdam with a nice outdoor meal! The group gathered at the Kaasbar ("cheese bar") Amsterdam. While cheese is not for everyone, there were enough eateries in the area to accommodate.

Say "Kaas"!

More adventures to come as we keep digging into the education and culture of the Netherlands!
